The Best Years Are Yet To Come…If, You Play Your Cards Right

  If you take a quick scroll through Instagram, SnapChat or YouTube you might be deluded into thinking that the only people that are ‘living their best lives’ or are widely revered are millennials or the Gen Z kids. But if you take a bit of a closer you look, you’ll inevitably find another [...]

The Manifesto

Fast forward 20 plus years later--I opened my own women’s only facility, loosely modeled after the one I attended when I was sixteen. I took everything that I fell in love with and adapted it to my own space. My goal was to make it an incredibly empowering environment where women could feel safe [...]

Tiger Stripes: It’s Time To Revel In Our Divine Glory

  On my own journey to self-actualized body positivity, I’ve realized a few things about my own body that have caused me to do some reframing. First off, it doesn’t always matter how athletic you are, how thin you are or how old you are. Stretch marks can be found on any body type. [...]

Defiantly Beautiful: My ‘Ode’ To Slick Woods

  Slick Woods is a model who's single-handedly redefining what it means to beautiful, in the most ‘defiant’ of ways. Not only is she working in an industry that prides itself on perpetuating archaic standards of beauty. But she’s also doing it in a bold and unapologetic way. Many women often find it [...]

How Not To Take Shit From Anyone: A Manifesto For The Fierce Woman

When I was pregnant with my first child, I knew I was having a girl. Call me crazy, but I just knew. When she arrived, and my notions were confirmed, I realized that a huge responsibility lied ahead of me. I had a whole manifesto laid out on how I was going to raise [...]

There Is No Finish Line

  In fact, one of my biggest fears is the idea of becoming complacent because I’m too busy basking in the memory of my former glory. And in my experience, the people that are the most dissatisfied with their lives or with themselves, are the ones that live in perpetually states of past achievements. [...]

Winter Motivation Versus Winter Hibernation

  There’s no doubt that winter’s a tough season for wellness. Snow and cold temperatures tend to put people into hibernation mode, which can lead to extra pounds, decreased fitness and stagnated progress. Some people opt to take a month or two off, but all that does is set you back and cut your [...]

A Journey Back To Ourselves

One of the most transformative things we can ever do for our wellbeing is remember who we are. Who we are in the absence of our kids, partners, sisters or friends. In life, we develop false identities to help us survive in the world. It’s a protective mechanism. Do you know who you [...]

Fit People Come In All Different Shapes And Sizes: Redefining What It Means To Be Fit

I’ve been a runner, weight lifter, fitness competitor, trainer and nutrition expert for well over 20 years. In every sport I’ve competed in--with the exception of fitness competitions--which I HATE by the way-- I’ve competed with several types of people including people who were extremely fit but didn’t fit the typical mould of what [...]

I Changed My Entire Skin Care Routine to CBD Products: The No Bullshit Guide to CBD Skin Car

I am not of the opinion that CBD is the silver bullet that many people make it out to be. I’m very aware that like most things, using CBD in concert with other natural products is what’s probably most beneficial for most folks. Recently, I switched my skin care routine to include only CBD [...]
