2 Year Fit-iversary! :D



Two years ago today, I decided take control of my life and GET HEALTHY! 🍎

Two years ago today, I took the plunge and became a health & fitness coach!! 💪🏻

Now don't get me wrong, 2 years ago today, I KNEW what eating healthy should look like--I had a degree in nutrition. And I KNEW how to workout. I just had NO CLUE how to do it as a busy and overwhelmed new mom of 2!!! I mean I was up all night with a new baby and barely ever getting to put make up on or dry my hair!! There was NO time for working out!!! Or so I thought. 🙇🏼‍♀️

But--something had to CHANGE!

So I bought a health & fitness program.
21 Day Fix to be exact.
-30 minutes of daily exercise
-Super-simple portion control
-Daily Shakeology.

And I made it work.
It changed my life.

AND I became a fitness coach! Man did that up the accountability--something this tired Mommy REALLY needed! 🙋🏼

2 years later, I'm pregnant with baby #3. But this pregnancy is different. I'm still working out & eating healthy! I feel pretty GOOD! 😄

From coaching I have an AMAZING support network of women who won't let me stop! I also have so much more financial freedom and the ability to work from home! I can't tell you how glad I am to be able to stay home with my kids. It's such a blessing! 💗

Am I enough?

       “Am I enough?”   This question plagues my day to day.   Every time I take on some new and daunting task, a series of questions that all come back to this plague my mind.   If I let it, the fear paralyzes me and I stop.   I never move any further.   I have to be willing to accept that I alone am not enough.   It is only then that I am able to move forward.   You see, for me, the truth is ingrained in my faith—I alone am not enough.   I can only get through the (at times seemingly absurd) tasks I have been called to if I trust in Christ to carry me through them.   2nd Corinthians 12: 9-10 tells us "And He has said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.' Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. Therefore I am well content with weaknesses, with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for Chri...

How Do I Homeschool with a Toddler at home?

I still can't imagine being thrown into homeschooling so quickly. I know I've said this before, but I personally needed the time to prepare. I'm a creative soul, and schedules do NOT come naturally to me, so I was so incredibly grateful to learn from my preschooler homeschool curriculum how to schedule the days for my youngest so that I could do it well! I just got off the phone with the owner of the My Father's World curriculum and he gave me permission to share some of it with you to help you adjust to your new way of life as well! I set up Brayden’s mornings like this so he will play happily & feel included while I homeschool the older kids (and of course, I include him in the schooling as possible as well). I treat his activities as though they as just as important as big kid school so he does them diligently and put them away in boxes after so they are special so he loves them while they are out. Once Avery finishes his K4 schedule he joins Brayden in t...

Reflections on Praying with Paul

    While I have yet to make it past Chapter four in Praying with Paul (grace and peace, right?), I was challenged even before I finished the preface of the book.   According to D. A. Carson, one of the major problems within the Western Church is prayerlessness.   Ok, great.   I pray daily.   Clearly this doesn’t apply to me.   T he two pitfalls within the Western Christian church are too much activity that doesn’t include prayer and praying without a basis in the scriptures .   OK, maybe I do pray daily, but are my prayers as well thought out as they should be?   Are they too simplistic?   Do I focus too much on my own wants and needs? They aren’t always based in scriptures.   I rarely sit down with the Bible and pray a passage…clearly, I have a lot to learn.       The first action I took to try to improve my prayer life was beginning to create space.   (I write the word beginning , because truthfully, I st...
