When I do listen I often find the words aren't very inspiring most of the time. So I don't. I like music based on the beats. Haha but I do love finding songs were I like the beat and the words. Let's make Shift playlist ... fav songs that are both catchy and inspire growth I let my parents choose there song for my wedding. My dad chose eye of the tiger ... umm tricky I thought ... but of course my bestie (they solve all problems) ...you do know there is a beautiful Jenn Grant version eh? So below my father daughter dance. 👇

Please do tell

💡 WIN / LESSONS LEARNED Wins: My biggest win was maintaining my tongue exercises daily despite the "double hit" of surgery recovery and being sick. I also managed 130 minutes of movement during my surgery week and 70 minutes while sick—proving that even in survival mode, I kept my "tether" to movement through post-meal dances and walks. Lessons: Recovery is not a straight line, and that is okay. Being forced to drop the "Performance Mask" showed me that I can stay the course without perfection. I’ve noticed that while my hip pain vanished during my period of rest, it’s a signal that I need to re-integrate stretches before the pain returns as I ramp back up to walking and strength training this week. A. 🥦 Holistic Body Movement + Fueling Synergy B: DEFINE IT -> This week is about Re-Entry and Healing. I am stepping up my surgical rehab to 4x daily tongue exercises (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, and Bedtime). I am returning to my 25g fiber goal (arugula, chia, and supplements) to support my system post-illness and will re-introduce gentle movement and stretching as my energy allows. C: GOOD / BETTER / BEST VERSION - GOOD: Tongue exercises 4x daily + 25g fiber + Replacing my BP cuff. - BETTER: All of the above + 30 mins of gentle walking + 2 post-meal "micro-dances." - BEST: All of the above + 3x 30-minute walks (low intensity) + Re-introducing 2 resistance/stretch sessions. ONE SMALL STEP TO MAKE IT EASIER The "Bedtime Anchor": To ensure I hit that 4th set of exercises, I will keep my exercise tools and a dedicated mirror/light right on my nightstand so I can finish them before bedtime. Other things I am tracking for a holistic picture: - Medical: BP monitoring (1x daily; replacing cuff this week). - Sleep: Current avg 7h 6m. Goal: 8 hours to support immune recovery. - Nutrition: 25g Fiber focus (adding chia/supplement to kefir).

On a family time week! And my 3yo little guy graduated from the bunny hill today and big girl (she's just turned 7) rockin' her blues. But I was thinking today as I was carrying my toddler wearing ski boots while walking in my ski boots and with all the awkward things. This is why I work out. So I can carry the awkward sh$* and have "des grandes aventures" (great big adventures) as my son calls them 💜 Share your NON body size reason for moving that body. I've quiet this week and so many new members! A personal hello is coming when I'm next on my desktop. 👇

Happy Sunday shift day! And a special hello to our new members and you first Sunday Shift please comment below so we can welcome you 💛 ​ 🌟 1) The biggest distance between you and your goal is actually showing up. Not how well you do it. Not the intensity. Just putting it at the top of your list and trying. The more frequently you do that, every week, the more it compounds. The key is 1 consistent day a week. That can be Sunday but if you prefer posting and reflecting on Wednesday you be you. It resets every Sunday! 🌟 2) That's why we use the Good, Better, Best framework. We already plan for life to happen. Good is your hardest week version. and I mean it, if you wouldn't do it on your absolute hardest week ever, take it down a notch. Better is your average week. Best is your stretch goal when everything aligns. All the same flavor, just different levels. ​ ✨ TWO OPTIONS: Choose YOUR Adventure ──────────────────────────── ✅ OPTION 1: Self-Led Vision Use the Good, Better, Best framework to set your one focus for the week ──────────────────────────── ​ If you know exactly what you're working on, leave a comment below or create a post and use #ShiftCommitment. Tell us your focus and your Good, Better, Best. ​ If you're new and the whole framework feels overwhelming honestly just comment below and tell us what you're focusing on. That's the start. As you get comfortable things can always grow. 🔎 Not sure what your focus is yet? Start with one word. Post it below. That's enough. AKA Movement, Fuel, Mindset, Community, Stress, Sleep ​ ──────────────────────────── ✅ OPTION 2: Nervous System Regulation Challenge Week 3 — A new breathing technique (this one is personal) ──────────────────────────── ​ Hi friends 💛 ​ Posting a little later than usual today because today was my figure skating showcase day. I restarted skating this year after a 20 year hiatus. My last competition was 2006. We are now March 2026. ​ I signed up on a whim with my girlfriends and honestly it felt like such a stretch at the time. When I was signing up, I had 2 year old and a 6 year old at home, two working parents. But I did it for me. One hour a week. And I am so grateful I did because it filled so many buckets. Movement in a big way, but also the social piece, the joy, the expression. All of it.
