Reason 100000 why fitness should be at the center of our homes.

”Mommy, Me and Teddy are ready to workout!” 😭 

Reason 100000 why fitness should be at the center of our homes.

I understand going to the gym and having that quiet time is nice, the problem is that's a time commitment. It's...I need a babysitter commitment. It’s...I need to spend more money commitment.

I spend $99 for a FULL year (I spend more getting my hair done in one sitting) A FULL year where I get access to over 700+ workouts, 10+ super trainers (yes something for everyone including kids), annnnnnnd a healthy cooking show! I legit never get bored!

My commitment every day is 30 minutes. 30 minutes of pressing play on my workout where I follow my super trainer. That’s it.

My all new Momma You MATTER group is starting up! Where we spend 30 mins a day on you! I’ll share how I keep my energy up being a momma of 3 with healthy nutrition not only for you but for the full family. Interested...hit reply or click the button below!

My Top Tips for Successful Morning Routines

48427335_800000193665953_5891366512043753472_n.jpg

This is the type of mindset you need to create for yourself! This is your life! You want to be HEALTHY and active...therefore it NEEDS to become apart of your daily routine.

  1. Understand the difference between I can’t and I don’t want too. Mornings for me are best to workout especially with having 3 kids. The day passes us by too quickly and getting it out of the way first thing in the morning also sets the tone for the rest of the day and fewer excuses creep up. Mornings are not my JAM! I would rather sleep in but I know how it makes me feel when I start my day off on a good note.

  2. Be committed to a “certain” allotted time. Example for me, I’m a 30-minute girl. Get me in and get me out. I know I can carve out 30 minutes in my day. If it's a new workout program that is longer than 30 minute I ask myself if I want that type of commitment and what are my goals.

  3. Resistance - You will fight with yourself. You will talk yourself out of it. This is where you need to remind yourself that you hold the power and you can push past this type of talk from yourself.

  4. Don’t go longer than 3 days without working out. This will help you get out of the mindset that you need to always start over.

  5. Think about WHY your health matters and on days you don’t want to remember why you matter.

This could be just what you are looking for!

Wishing every day would be a 2-hour delay. I didn't have to dress any kids while they were dead asleep. Don't tell me you don't do it. 🤣

Today with the 2-hour school delay, I had to turn around and pick my son back up 3 hours later. Every time I experience something like this my first thought is always... I feel so blessed I said yes to this coaching gig. I answer to a boss that's super cool (it's me🤣), I don't have to panic wondering what to do, who to call or who I might let down. I get to hear the pitter patters of 3 sets of feet hitting the floor. I get to relax a little, make breakfast for the family, break up a few fights and settle an argument on why wearing underwear is important and I wouldn’t want it any other way.

I know what I do is NOT for everyone but if your someone that WANTS to be a SAHM, earn an income, determine your own schedule, find a higher purpose, work hard and care for others I’m now mentoring 5 new coaches this month. Fill out the form below! 💕 My answered prayers might be yours!

Self Sabotage

SELF SABOTAGE .... Something we do all too often! Are you right on the verge of achieving your health and fitness goals or ANY GOAL but you're holding yourself back and you know it? Good news is you are aware! This is HUGE!!! Knowing what your doing MEANS your now able to take action on what is holding you back!  The bad news is we have to fight the mind on what you want to achieve which is freaking hard wor

Here are some tips on how to  move yourself forward instead of backward:

  1. REACH OUT! Tell your coach! Tell someone you know that will give it to you straight and help hold you accountable! Give them permission to be honest with you! You don’t want someone that will baby you! You want someone that WILL test you and really help you see what you're made of!

  2. Shout your goals out loud! Something about sharing it with the world also makes you step up your game! It's one thing if you let yourself down, it's a whole new ball game when people are waiting for you to show them you CAN and WILL achieve what you said you would! Shout it out today!!!

  3. FUEL YOUR MIND! This needs to be your #1 ALWAYS! WHY? Because your body won't go where your mind won't allow it! Along with everything else in life! Our brain is THE MOST POWERFUL thing we own! Feed it with POSITIVITY & POWER! Here are some books you can read or listen too:

You Are a Bad Ass byJenn Sincero - This would be for anybody that lacks self-confidence within themselves.

UnF*ck Yourself by Gary John Bishop - This is for anybody that keeps on holding themselves back! YOU NEED A KICK this book is for you!

- 5 Second Rule or KICK ASS by  Mel Robbins - This is for anybody that NEEDS that extra push to JUST GET UP AND GET SHIT DONE!

Here is a tip: f you are busy like me, sitting down and reading might not always be an option so download the app Audible! Get your book of choice, put your earbuds in and drive, clean, workout, whatever...while fueling the most powerful muscle your own!

Keeping Healthy Choices Stupid Simple #KHSS

If there’s one thing I’ve learned working with so many other women and mommas is we get in our heads way too much! (Myself included)

So I wanted to share 3 of my main tips to help you mommas just feel better, take action and own your day!

Keeping Healthy Choices Stupid Simple #KHSS

1. If it’s 11 am and you’re still in your PJs go change, like NOW!  (this was me yesterday) You can put on yoga pants whatever you choose...just change! You’ll feel better!

2. Move your BODY! Activity fuels more activity and laziness fuels more laziness! The more you move the better you will feel!

3. What you put in your mouth can really determine how you feel and the action you take! Pay attention to this and how you feel after you eat. Being MINDFUL of your feelings could be exactly what you need to make that change the following day.

You wanna feel better? Then you have to take ACTION! You have that power!

If you need more guidance shoot me an email. You never have to be alone on this journey. I’m here for you babe!

My best tips for healthy eating - Family edition

I get these two questions a lot:

  1. How do I keep my family of 5 on track with our health and fitness? 
  2. How do I make healthy dinners FAMILY APPROVED? 

First I have to mention, yes our family does eat healthy but never mistake this for we are PERFECT when it comes to our meals. Truth be told I could actually eat like a toddler and be ok with it IF a good feeling came from it.  Problem is being a mom of 3 I NEED the energy and I want to teach my kids to have a healthy relationship with food. 

Here are a few tips that have helped me along the way. 

Learn to have a healthy relationship with food and share that relationship with your family. One way to create a healthy relationship is to stop focusing on everything you shouldn’t be eating and start focusing on everything you should be eating. Where our focus goes our energy flows. Start to focus and pay attention to food that will fuel your body properly. 

Remind yourself food is FUEL and we need our tanks on FULL to perform at the best of our abilities. Same goes for our kids. If your kids start to crash or have outburst know this could be due to the amount of sugar in their diets. 

Think of it like this….You wouldn’t put regular gas in a diesel truck and expect for it to perform. A diesel truck needs healthy “diesel” fuel that will make it run without crashing. Think of your body as a well-oiled diesel machine that needs the good gas! 

#KHSS-Keep Healthy Stupid Simple and stop overcomplicating.  For dinner, I like to make sure my family is eating a protein, healthy carb & veggie for dinner. That’s it! No rocket science here just a well-balanced meal. If you're wondering what’s a healthy carb, protein and well all veggies are healthy here’s a list for you. (start following this hashtag #KHSS for my healthy meals) 

Please remember ANY type of change resistance will be created. Not only with you but your family! STAY FOCUSED on what you want for yourself and your family.
