This week I had such a wholesome chat with & where we all agreed on the below:
1. It’s just time & what you do with it. It’s really easy to fall into the trap of “I’ll take my training seriously when work isn’t so hectic”, “I’ll focus on my health when this busy season is over and I have more time”. Plot twist, those times rarely come & even if they do, 9/10 there’s another excuse in the way of why you’re still not doing it.
2. You get to choose your hard. & and I are both mums and work. Sure do we have our preferred time to train & get things done? Absolutely. Do we always get to train & work during those times? Absolutely not.
It’s hard to do something when you don’t want to, can’t be bothered to, isn’t the most convenient time for you etc but it’s equally as hard to sit and feel miserable about it.
Is it hard to meal prep weekly and train consistently? For sure. But it’s also hard to live a life in a body that isn’t healthy, strong or full of vitality.
Chatting to the girls made me
1. Super grateful to work with likeminded people who view life the same way I do
&
2. Reminded me that regardless of how stressful and heavy running a business, being a mum, managing clients/a team, juggling training and everything in between can get, how easy it is to get caught up in all the big stuff & not take in the seemingly small stuff.
Being a mum: the hardest thing I’ve ever done
Also being a mum: seeing this little human explore the world in a way that is so special to be a part of
Being a business owner: stressful, time consuming & soul crushing at times
Also being a business owner: being a part of something bigger than myself and being able to challenge myself on so many levels
Being obsessively natured & competitive with training: time consuming, a lot of early mornings, late nights & injuries lol
Also being obsessively natured & competitive with training: achieving more than what I thought I ever could & growing a part of myself that I’m very proud of.
Reminder, maybe the small stuff really is the whole point. Dance with your friends, exercise your body & mind, have the conversations & do the hard things.
