This week I challenge you to look at your goals and decide what about them is contributing to you NOT following through. Sometimes we set goals that aren't meaningful and DON'T motivate us at all.

I share how to carry out meaningful goals by...

This episode is some loving, right to the point talk about how the things we think about and talk about most can be debilitating to our progress or happiness. We tend to tell stories (tales of woe) over and over or claim, "I am so busy!" and then hope focusing on that makes it somehow magically go away. We have a choice to consider a new narrative in our heads. I share how tapping into the heart a...

This week I delve into the how absence can in fact not only make the heart grow fonder, but also allow you some distance for things like sexting, which can be a great form of foreplay.

Don't del...

This week's episode takes you into the idea of "state" specifically your state of being, thinking, feeling. How do you manage your state? How do you transition to a new state? How open are you to doing so? Do you use tools to manage your state or are you even aware of what gets you in or out of state. I outline 3 key tools that allow you to manage and change your state in any moment, both in the s...

This week I am so excited to introduce you to the incredibly rehabilitative, safe postpartum exercise called Pilates. Before 2015 I didn't really know what pilates was.

Having a hard time following through or do you get started and keep going for a while then drop off when things get crazy again. In this episode I talk about the delicate discipline towards ourselves that is necessary in getting our goals accomplished. Often we think it is sheer will that is need or that we need to motivate ourselves through negative self-talk ("when I tell myself I am fat and laz...

In this week's episode we dive into the mindset of scarcity. This means that you find yourself consistently replaying the story in your head that says, "there isn't enough time," "I don't have the support I need," I can't afford to do that," "Must be nice for them, it will never happen for me." And so on…  This old story has been playing for centuries and it's time for you to let it go and play in...

The work IN this episode is all about FOOD. This is one of the most common question I get from FitMamas and it's no wonder because it's a confusing landscape out there. I share my personal stories about my dieting past, I share my history of "restriction" and "obsession" with food. As the "season of food" is descending upon us, worrying about weight gain is optional and what you focus on grows… I...
