Most people don’t abandon their goals all at once. They just stop showing up in small ways… and tell themselves it still counts. Where have you been quietly lowering the bar without admitting it?

Had the opportunity to meet up with @Jennifer Crafton and finally meet her amazing daughter, Cheyenne and they also met my family. My family had so much fun spending time with them, and the connection was effortless and genuine. What started as an online connection through the BBB Inner Circle turned into a real-life meet up that felt like we had known each other for a long time. That’s the power of being part of a meaningful community and it brings people together in unexpected but beautiful ways. I’m truly blessed and grateful for @Jennifer Crafton for her time, her warmth, and for allowing us to share such a special experience together as families. “Time” is the biggest gift anyone can give because it can’t be bought. It requires someone to intentionally choose to spend it with you and that was the greatest gift @Jennifer Crafton gave me. 💛 Moments like this are a reminder that real connection can grow far beyond a screen.

I scared my husband this morning he walked in to see me with this thing on my face. Feels kind of nice but not sure I’m doing it right !! Life has been what life is and I’ve been trying to stay consistent while thill having fun and trying new things. I’m back down in my weight and hoping to not get another spike but such is life. I was sore from my tournament but I still did my workout this morning and got some new PRs so I consider that a win.

This week started strong. By the end of it? Sleep debt hit hard. Old mindset would’ve said: “Push through. Don’t stop.” Current mindset: “Recover properly so next week isn’t compromised.” I took yesterday to reset because long-term consistency beats short-term stubbornness every single time. I feel so much better for it and ready to smash this week and to make sleep a focus. Anyone relate?

Guys my Costco had blueberry sourdough bread 🤯 I know this isn't what Darren means when he says to eat our blueberries but damn 😆 this is so good!! I warmed it in the oven first. 100% recommend. I don't know the macros and they're probably not great 🫣 but if you're feeling like it's time to treat yourself getchu some!
