My 8 Steps for Effective Goal Setting
Eight Steps for Effective Goal Setting The end of the year is always very powerful for me. It’s a time I let fresh ideas pour in and get excited and focused for the year ahead. I feel it's so important to live intentionally and make the most of your life. And one way I like to do that is by setting goals. Goals give clear direction and help to create focus on achieving the things that are most important to you personally and professionally. People that don't set goals for themselves are like leaves that move in whatever direction the wind blows. Life is just passing them by and is very much happening 'to them' not 'for them'. The saying that comes to mind is from the Cheshire Cat

10 Essential Self Care Practices to Help You Thrive
Do you ever forget to take care of yourself? I know. You’re busy, and finding the time to take proper care of yourself can be hard. But if you don’t, it won’t be long before you’re burnt out from exhaustion and operating in a mental fog where it’s hard to care about anything or anyone. I should know. About 7 years ago, as I was chasing my dreams to become a the top ranked fitness competitor and scaling my online coaching business, I suffered a complete burn out. Adrenal fatigue, hormone imbalance, chronic exhaustion… I could barely get out of bed most days. I was working 60 hours + per week and had let my self care go in the pursuit of excellence. Since
My Self Care Stratgies for Busy Moms
Most of us have heard about self-care. We know it’s important. We may even know a few practices which fall into the category of self-care. However, one of the reoccurring comments I hear from my clients is that they don’t have enough time for such. Women, mothers in particular, tend to prioritize their time in a comparable order to the following: Family, career, other responsibilities, and maybe (but rarely) self-care.

When I am unable to be consistent with this schedule, my tolerance levels head south. I find that

For some, a delay in becoming a parent is not a choice, and I can only imagine how agonizing that must be. For me however, it was a cognizant decision. I always knew that I wanted to be well prepared for the hardest yet most rewarding endeavor I will ever pursue. That groundwork involved completing my education, establishing my business, and being with the right partner. Within the fitness industry, I am not alone in starting a family in my 40s. In fact, many of my peers had their children after 35. It’s a popular
