Hiking + lifting, is this my real life?!
We went for a beautiful 75-minute hike. It was hard right from the start, and then the descent was also tough! But it was great!
And then I finished the night with an hour workout where I squatted 157.5lbs and deadlifted 165lbs, both personal records!
Sunday Reflection - Week 2
A few months ago, I started a new habit on Sundays:
1. Go to run class
2. Go to coffee shop afterwards to work on things for myself
I love it! It's just time for my to get my life in check. Focus on me.
Well last week I decided to use a Coaching Workbook page I give my...
The art of showing up

Being in motion is planning things, reading about things,...
Do something small instead of nothing at all
Today I went to my running class and walked the entire time.
Better to show up and do something small than to stay at home and do nothing at all.
Sunday Reflection - Week 1
Welcome to my first Sunday Reflection of the year. This is a workbook page I use with my coaching clients, and I decided it's something I can use for myself too to hold myself accountable to the changes I want to make in 2024.
Great first week of the year! I was just writing in my journal...
Rest day
I am forcing myself to take a rest day today meaning no lifting and no running.
I can walk or bike but nothing that is going to be too much.
Funny that I'm now a person who has to schedule in rest days whereas for the past decade, I've been someone who struggled to exericse...
The road to 200lbs!
I have been working on a goal of squatting and deadlifting 200lbs for a while now.
Yesterday I hit a new PR for squatting. 150lbs!
I love working on getting stronger rather than focusing on being skinny.
