You cannot supplement your way out of poor sleep.

You cannot bio hack your way around strength training.

You cannot outsmart a stressed nervous system.

And yet… that’s what we usually try to do.

A solid wellness plan in midlife isn’t about shortcuts or extremes. It’s about returning to foundational principles that have been quietly slipping for years — if not decades.

It’s about building a life that can actually hold the habits you say matter.

The truth is, by the time we realize we feel awful and haven’t been looking after ourselves for far too long, we’ve usually piled on so many obligations and responsibilities that self-care genuinely feels impossible. Because it is… if we don’t create capacity.

Midlife wellness is about creating that capacity. It’s an invitation to change by making time for really important things like...
➡️lifting heavy a few times a week,
➡️eating enough protein, fiber, fruits and veggies
➡️prioritizing sleep and rest
➡️laughing with people you love
➡️really making choices about what is worth it and what isn’t.

None of that is flashy, but it works.

Which of these feels hardest for you right now?

The wellness hack not enough people are talking about?

Community & Support.

Not just social connection.
Not just friends.

I’m talking about being in environments where the behaviors you want to practice are normal.

Environment shapes behavior more than motivation ever will.

Most women don’t struggle because they lack knowledge. They struggle because they’re trying to change in environments that don’t reinforce the change.

And that’s exhausting.

This is why coaching works.
Not because I hand out magic plans —
but because we intentionally create a space where your identity and habits are supported.

You don’t need more willpower.

You need better rooms 🤯

If this resonates, you’re exactly where you’re meant to be. 🧡

What an amazing performance last night at the Super Bowl! 🔥 I know that’s the talk of the day but I also didn’t want you to miss out on the other, equally entertaining (but for much different reasons 😝) entertainment from my adorable MIL last night. Call it the special edition. (You may remember my MIL from the advent calendar video I shared before Christmas.)

Please enjoy ❤️ and leave a 👏🏼 below if you enjoyed it 😉😝

A few moments from a very special and unforgettable trip to 🇨🇷 with a group of amazing people.

So grateful to and for creating an experience I’ll never forget.

One takeaway that really landed for me was: “You put yourself here.”

Such a simple but powerful reminder:

That our environments — the places we go and the people we surround ourselves with — shape us more than we realize. Say YES to what lights you up, and choose spaces that support your physical, mental, and soul-level wellness🤍
