We take a yearly trip up North. As a Florida girl, I’m wired for heat and humidity…not 5°F and definitely not 12°F as a “high.” That kind of cold is offensive. 😂 Before my injury, I was always active. Always moving. I’ve always loved pushing myself physically. Especially on our winter trips…skiing, snowmobiling, hiking, doing hard things just to see if I could. Movement has always been part of who I am. And then for years… it wasn’t. I would stay inside while my family and friends hiked, sledded, and adventured. I’d meet them later for lunch and dinner. Present… but not participating. Not this year. I didn’t ski (next year 😉), but I didn’t miss the hikes. I didn’t miss the sledding. I didn’t miss the outdoor fun. I was out there…freezing, layered up, laughing, moving, living. And here’s what hit me… Strength isn’t about aesthetics. It’s about access. Access to your life. Access to your people. Access to the moments you don’t want to miss. Being active right now feels sweet because I remember when I wasn’t. I don’t take this season lightly. I don’t take movement for granted. And I’m not sitting this one out anymore. 👊🏼

Always good to start your day (and/or end your day) listings out what you’re grateful for. I feel it helps me rewire my thoughts and my perception of how things are going in my life. If you perceive everything as being IN YOUR FAVOR, then you can’t lose✌️ Shitty day? What’s the lesson? Have an injury? That means more time for ___. Today I’m grateful for: - Having abled legs to walk to coffee - Having the opportunity to coach a kid in bball at an amazing sports facility - Have the ability to choose what to eat - Having a device to be able to communicate with my lovely Skool members around the world Your turn! 👇👇

It's 6AM. You wake up and open the curtains. In front of you is the beautiful blue waters of the Andaman Sea. You wash down a large cup of water with electrolytes. You go to the kitchen and greet your new friends over a coffee. I'm one of those friends ☺️ You put on your walking shoes and go for a 30-minute walk with the gang. You come back to a spread of eggs, turkey bacon, fruit, protein shakes, and more coffee. You're not sure how to track the food, but good thing I'm there to show you exactly how. You go back to your room for some personal time. 11AM hits, and I'm waiting in the gym to show you how to properly train (finally 😆) We head to the sauna after, and we share our goals and dreams. We do a mobility session together and rest for a few hours. It's 6PM, and dinner is served. Your meal is optimized for your calorie and macro goals + you get a side of bone broth 🤩 We end the night with a short but sweet lesson on how to optimize your sleep. You head to bed, and we do it again tomorrow. So... I actually had the pleasure of taking part in an experience like this last year on the beautiful island of Koh Samui at a luxury called Villa Solana. I became good friends with the honorable guests there, including three Miss Universe Thailand's 😉 (how lucky am I) and one of the top Thai female fitness influencers (@befitwithjess). There's really nothing like a 3-day unplugging getaway where your main focus is yourself... but with an awesome support system to top it off. Raise your hand if you'd want to experience this 🙋🏽✋

Woke up today with a newfound appreciation for those of you who live in cold climates. After three straight days of freezing temperatures here in Florida…and when I say freezing, I mean 25°F - 31F° (-3°C) I am officially humbled. We are not built for anything below 60 for extended periods of time. All of my plants look absolutely terrible. Some have literally turned black, which is kind of depressing to see. It makes you realize how much weather affects not just our routines, but our environment and mood too. I genuinely don’t know how you all do this for months at a time. I would want to stay indoors, under covers, and not move. So truly…kudos to everyone who wakes up in this kind of weather, gets dressed, goes to work, lives life, and somehow still makes it to the gym. That alone deserves an award. Respect. ❄️💪
