  • Habit Stacking

    Multi-tasking (or habit stacking) is how I can get stuff done around the house and with my business.

Take something you already do, like dishes, laundry, brushing your teeth and just add to that. Listen to…

  • Why I became a partner with BODi?

    Growing up, I was the skinny girl. I never thought about my weight, never cared about what I was eating. Then I had 3 kids. After having my middle child, I was at my heaviest I have ever been. I didn’t like the way I looked or how I felt in my own body. I…

  • I hate the scale.

    I hate stepping on it every week. I hate not seeing what I want to see. When I step on it, I only see what choices I made the previous week, good or bad. Logically, I know that it is just a tool and only one way to measure my fitness journey. But I still…

  • Goodbye 2023, Hello 2024!

    2023 felt like we were in survival mode. We started the year with a 7-month-old, a 12-year-old, and an almost 15-year-old. I felt like I was finally getting the hang of pumping/breastfeeding with my 3rd, when he decided, he did not want to nurse anymore and only wanted a bottle. It was a bittersweet time…
