Welcome To The Rise Up Academy!
If you’re here, you probably know what it feels like to hold yourself to impossible standards. To be “the strong one,” the achiever, the one who keeps it all together even when it costs you your peace, your rest, and sometimes your sense of self. I'm also a recovering perfectionist and still struggle with avoidance because "its" not good enough...yet. This space is for those of us practicing being more understanding of ourselves, even on the tough days! Here, we practice: *Showing up even when we’re not “perfect” *Resting without guilt *Letting progress be enough *Listening to our own needs *Being kind to ourselves along the way You don’t have to fix yourself to belong here, you already belong. I’m glad you’re here. We will rise together slowly, steadily, and with compassion.

Change
Why do we resist change? The unknown is scary. We like comfort and what to expect but with change comes growth. To learn to be in the uncomfortable moments I’ve found a whole new world of opportunity and belief in myself. I like to say just dip a toe in the water first and then you may decide to jump in, but not everyone is the same. What typically is your method: To just jump in or to slowly make your way into the water? What are you currently resisting?

Breakfast
Breakfast one of the most controversial meals of the day! Do you or don't you.... Honestly its up to you. I typically have coffee and then a few hours later a breakfast. Week days usually an apple and protein shake then weekends well I need to get better with this again. Working on egg whites, turkey sausage links, and 20g Chobani greek yogurt. That way I start my day with minimum 20-50g protein. Whats important is to get "enough" protein with each meal along with more nutrient dense foods. Easier said than done because lets be real, they just don't taste as appealing. What's typically your first meal of the day and what does it look like?

Brain Overload
Is there such thing as a brain overload? There must be. It’s how I’m feeling lately, the past few weeks. Brain is firing in many directions and spread thin on power. Where to start? What to do now? I don’t feel like it? The self talk to just do whatever I think I should is 60/40 depending on the task at hand. Sooo frustrating! When my week seems very out of routine or chaotic this tends to happen. I must choose where I focus, along with where, and when to go into a sleep mode. To get by and reserve my sanity. Real life! What about you?

Energy
What typically is most draining for you each day? Where does most of your energy go? What we may forget or don’t have the energy to put into is what we want to accomplish in a day after we accomplish what we feel we “have” to do first such as work, family, and providing for others. Trying to rewire your mindset to do something for you isn’t easy and I know this first hand. As you may relate I also struggle on not to practice giving to everyone else and then leaving myself on the back burner. Find ways to reboot or conserve your energy such as making a quick daily plan, prioritize, and then execute it. I at least find I have the most “energy” in the morning so getting my thoughts and lists done is best. Find your windows of energy spurts and make the most of them. YOU GOT THIS!
