HOW ARE YOU LEARNING AND GROWING DAILY?

As we head into the final few months of the year, it's time to check in with your progress towards your goals and make adjustments as needed.

Let me ask you this.....

Are you going to sit on the sidelines and wish that you took more action towards your goals this past year or are you going to change your mindset and get to work?

The difference between success and failure is found in one's attitude towards setbacks, struggles, discouragements and other disappointing situations.

Remember, there is a positive side to every situation. Find it, learn from it and do better!

Here are 3 ways to adjust your mindset so that you can be sure to end this year feeling accomplished, proud and unstoppable! 

1. Let failures pave your way to success. When you fail, learn and then go on to succeed the next time! Fail forward! 
   
   
2. Stop blaming luck. Research each setback so you can figure out what went wrong. Remember, blaming luck never got anyone where they wanted to go.
   
   
3. If what you are currently...

Technology has some amazing benefits and I take advantage of it daily! 

Everything is available at our fingertips: shopping, news, social media, music, baking, to name a few. No wonder why it can feel non-negotiable to be on our phones all the time.

But just like cheese, too much of it can have a negative effect on our body.

Did you know that: 

• 84% of cell phone users claim they could not go a single day without their device. 
• 67% of cell phone owners check their phone for messages, alerts, or calls — even when they don’t notice their phone ringing or vibrating. 
• Studies indicate some mobile device owners check their devices every 6.5 minutes. 
• 88% of U.S. consumers use mobile devices as a second screen even while watching television. 
• Almost half of cell owners have slept with their phone next to their bed because they wanted to make sure they didn’t miss any calls. 

Our smartphones are such an important part of our...

What is this program that I keep talking about? Would it be something I can do? What do I get in my pack? Do I have to exercise first thing in the morning? 

I've been getting a lot of these questions about the new program that I'm starting next week. I decided to do a quick unboxing/info video to show you exactly what comes in a pack and explain how this is the best way to get an all-inclusive program that comes with nutrition, fitness, and accountability!

I still have about 10 spots left in my group and I would love for you to join me on this journey to commit to 100 workouts together. They're only 20 to 30 minutes long and for all fitness levels. Believe it or not the workouts are fun and they fly by.

If you're ready to start working on becoming the best version of yourself I would love to coach you through this program. There's a huge savings going on during the month of July and I have a handful of promo codes left for those who jump on this opportunity.

We all LOVE vacation season. Traveling allows us to unplug and unwind and it can be the perfect time to focus on our wellness. 

If you are like me, you work hard at being healthy and fit and you don’t want to sabotage that when you travel. I like to shift my mindset to destressing, slowing down and being in the moment (which is really good for our overall health).

Vacations are a great time to relax, unwind, and de-stress so take advantage! There are plenty of ways you can still be active!

Check out the 4 enjoyable ways to incorporate wellness into your next trip whether you are traveling overseas, camping, or going on a road trip!

1. Rent a bike or take a hike! Explore nature and burn calories while enjoying the great outdoors! Aim to ride or hike for about an hour to get your body into the fat-burning zone!
2. Attending a yoga class is a great way to unwind and slow down during a trip. If you don't have access to a class, find a quiet spot to do some stretching for about 20...

AIRPORT SURVIVAL GUIDE
8 Tips to Help You Travel Successfully (be sure to grab your free gift below)

The airport can be a stressful and overwhelming experience, especially if you are rushed and not prepared. I’ve realized that when I travel, I’m the most successful when I plan ahead.

By being prepared, and I am not just talking about having your boarding pass and itinerary printed, you must have a plan for what you will eat at the airport and on the plane.

As I’m sure you are aware, airport food is not only unhealthy ... it is very expensive.

So I put together 8 tips to help you travel successfully, I’m calling it the “Airport Survival Guide”! When these 8 tips are implemented, you will enjoy your experience at the airport, be able to de-stress, save money and not feel so rushed!

STEP 1: PLAN AHEAD
If you are not able to prep food and must eat at the airport, then be sure to research the available restaurants and food options. Not all airports are...

I LOVE homemade hummus and have been wanting to make it for years! Here's a super simple recipe that took me 10 minutes to make and is only 93 calories! 

You can whip up a batch of homemade hummus in about ten minutes with a handful of ingredients and a blender or food processor. And, it’s less expensive and tastes better than the kind you’d buy at the store!

Homemade hummus is great because you can reduce the amount of olive oil and tahini, making it lower in fat and calories.

Let's talk about how you can manage stress more effectively so stress stops running your life!

There are 3 benefits to understanding how to manage:

1. Being about to identify stress and where it comes from
2.  Avoid burnout
3. Take control of your days

As you probably know, when you aren’t able to MANAGE YOUR STRESS EFFECTIVELY it starts to run your life.

Stress can start from the minute you get out of bed!

You know that feeling when you wake up in the morning frantic?

Right when the day starts, you think "Oh my gosh, I gotta do this, I gotta do that."

That's a big problem because it sets the tone for your day. You will lack productivity at work and in your personal life because you are feeling scattered and unable to focus.  

Feeling this way on a regular basis increases your stress levels and will eventually take a toll on your health.

Stress is very unhealthy. Things can get worse when we don't manage this problem. Stress can cause disease, weight gain, and...

Let's talk about how you can save time in your nutrition no matter how hectic your schedule is.

There are 3 benefits you will receive when you are able to be consistent with your nutrition, even with a busy schedule:

1. Avoid stress eating
2. Fuel your body with the right foods
3. Simplify healthy nutrition

Believe it or not, this doesn't have to be complicated, but if you don't figure out how to get your nutrition under control, these problems might arise.

You will most likely not eat enough to fuel your body and brain throughout the day. I know that sounds counter-intuitive, but a lot of times people just skip eating altogether because they're just too busy. They tend to turn to fast food which is very unhealthy and has minimal nutrients.

This can lead to feeling sluggish and unmotivated. If you're not fueling your body right, you're not going to be getting the energy you need to sustain you throughout the day.
