With permission from my client, I want to share Joanna’s incredible journey.

At one point Joanna weighed 228 pounds. She was recovering from a knee injury, battling thyroid issues, moving through menopause, exhausted, discouraged, and carrying 109 pounds of fat around her organs. She was at high risk for a stroke or a heart attack.

Instead of sitting back and saying it was too late, she reached out to me and asked for help. And boy, did she ever rise above. She showed up. She stayed consistent. She rebuilt her habits and refused to let age, health, or circumstance hold her back.

Now at 60 years old, Joanna has lost nearly 90 pounds and has kept it off. She trains with me twice a week, plays pickleball two to three times a week — sometimes more — and just came home with a medal. She is stronger, healthier, and more vibrant than ever before.

This isn’t just weight loss — this is transformation. This is what happens when you believe in yourself and keep going, one day at a time.

Look at her then. Look at her now. This is strength. This is courage. This is Jo!

Taking care of yourself shouldn’t be the hardest thing you do, but for many it is. Consistency feels like a battle. Putting yourself first feels impossible. And denial becomes the comfort zone that keeps you stuck.

Most people give up the moment it feels hard. They quit before change has a chance to settle in. But if you kept going — if you gave yourself the time to push through — what feels impossible now would eventually feel normal. Consistency becomes routine when you stop walking away from it.

You tell yourself you’re fine. You’ll start tomorrow. It’s not that bad. But nothing changes until you stop lying to yourself. No one is coming to do it for you. Your health, your effort, your discipline — that’s on you.

Your mind will always sell you the easy road. Keep the habits. Numb yourself with convenience. Avoid the hard choices. But the easy road is the one that leads to pain, regret, and sometimes the trauma it takes to finally wake you up.

The Danger of the Easy Road

Taking the easy road is killing people. That is the part nobody wants to admit. Skipping the effort, brushing it off, saying I will deal with it later feels harmless in the moment, but it is not. While you keep putting it off, your body is breaking down. The weight creeps up. Your energy drains. Silent damage is happening inside, and you will not see the full cost until it is too late.

And here is the part that makes no sense. People will invest in takeout, alcohol, concert tickets, and trips without thinking twice, but when it comes to their health, suddenly it is too much or too hard. Then the excuses come out. I am not motivated. I have already tried everything. Nothing ever sticks for me. You can be in denial all you want, but your internal organs you cannot see keep taking the hit. Most people only get serious when the stroke hits, when the heart attack comes, when the doctor says the words they cannot ignore anymore. When you do not put effort into your health now, you will pay for it later in ways you cannot undo.

People get stuck because of the story they tell themselves, and that story keeps them in a rut. The story that it’s too hard, too complicated, not worth the effort. I’ve even heard people say it’s too expensive to eat healthy — but then turn around and spend on alcohol and restaurants without thinking twice. And the longer they believe it, the deeper they sink.

The reality is, most aren’t fueling their body the right way. They under eat throughout the day, skipping meals, cutting corners, ignoring the basics. Then the cravings hit, and the next thing you know, they’re binging. And what do they binge on? High calorie, high sugar, high carbohydrate foods that only drag them down further. Not because they lack willpower, but because their body was never fueled properly to begin with.

Oblivious feels easier than facing the truth. Winging it feels easier than learning what your body really needs. But what’s easier today always costs more tomorrow — in energy, in weight gain, in health issues that keep piling up. It doesn’t need to be complicated. It doesn’t need to be overwhelming. The rut doesn’t end by winging it. It ends when you decide to break the story that’s been keeping you stuck.

Taking care of your body is not supposed to be a guessing game. But most people are never taught how to do it properly. They jump into meal plans, detoxes, or calorie-cutting without ever learning what their body actually needs.

This is not about cutting carbs or chasing trends. It is about education. It is knowing what to eat. It is learning how to be consistent. It is learning how to heal your body. It is learning how not to cut shortcuts.

Willpower matters. But without knowledge, willpower burns out. The results people want come from structure, repetition, and a clear understanding of what works and why.

If nothing has worked for you long term, it is probably because no one has ever shown you how to do it right. Understanding your body should not be confusing. But until you learn how to do it properly, you will keep spinning in the same cycle.

Some days, even I don’t feel like doing it.
But then I remember why I started.

I don’t coach because it’s easy.
I coach because I’ve lived the struggle.

Over 20 years ago, I lost more than 100 pounds — and I’ve kept it off.
I’ve coached thousands of women through their own weight loss and menopause journeys.
But when I hit menopause two years ago, everything changed.

Even as a coach, I found myself gaining weight, feeling off balance, and disconnected from my body.
I wasn’t just physically uncomfortable — I was mentally struggling too.

And I had to remind myself:
I’m human.

It wasn’t just about getting back on track with food and fitness.
I had to reset my mindset.
I had to rebuild my discipline, my belief, and my own structure — from the inside out.

That’s what this journey really is.

It’s not about being perfect.
It’s about getting real with yourself, staying honest, and showing up — even on the hard days.

Because I know what’s on the other side of that:

Structure.
Simplicity.
Confidence.
And finally feeling like yourself again.

You’re not too far gone.
It’s not too late.
And change doesn’t have to be complicated.

Just start.
And keep going.

You’re not lazy. You’re under-fueled and overwhelmed.

Most people aren’t lazy.
They’re tired. Starving. Frustrated.
Running on coffee, stress, and whatever’s left at the end of the day.

If your body isn’t being fed properly, you won’t have energy or consistency.
It’s not a motivation problem — it’s a structure problem.
Fix the structure — and everything changes.

This is what I coach. And when the structure shifts — so does everything else.

THE TRUTH ABOUT WEIGHT LOSS (That Most People Get Wrong)

Weight loss isn’t just about eating less or burning more calories.

Going too low in calories, cutting carbs too hard, or eating too little protein might cause fast weight loss at first — but it comes at a cost.

Your metabolism slows down

Your body starts burning muscle instead of fat

Energy crashes

Hunger increases

Hormones become imbalanced — especially cortisol, insulin, and even s*x hormones

And eventually… the weight comes back, often with more

One of the most common mistakes is focusing only on workouts.
But training while under-fueled doesn’t build a healthier body — it breaks it down.
You can’t expect your body to perform when it’s running on empty.

Carbohydrates aren’t the enemy either. It’s about knowing the difference.
Some spike insulin, others support stable energy.
When you under-carb or under-eat, you’re not helping your body burn fat — you’re forcing it to hold on to it.

The real solution?
Eat enough.
Learn to balance your macros.
Train after your body has been taught how to metabolize properly.

Nutrition isn’t just part of the process — it is the process.

Summer’s Here — But So Is Your Wake-Up Call

> Summer hits, and we say, “Okay… now it’s time. It's time to take care of me.”

But here we are — still running.
Running to appointments. Running errands. Running after a to-do list that never ends.

And in the middle of all that motion, you get pushed to the bottom. Again.

Not just because of kids.
Not just because of work.
But because life never slows down — and no one else is going to hit pause for you.

One day, we blink — and our health has slipped.
The energy is gone. The inflammation is up. The mirror feels unfamiliar.
And we wonder, “When did this happen?”

It happened when you kept saying “later.”

But the truth is — no season, no moment, no circumstance will ever be the perfect time.
Your health doesn't care what month it is.

This summer, choose you.
Choose to stop waiting.
Choose to stop putting everything else above your wellness.

Because everything you love depends on the version of you that’s still standing.

Prioritize your health — not just for now, but so you’re still here later.

Eating less isn’t the answer.

You’re not losing fat.
You’re losing muscle.
And that’s a problem.

Most of us were told:
“Lose 2 pounds a week or you’re failing.”
So we eat less… and less…
Until we’re barely fueling our bodies.

And what do a lot of coaches do?
They give clients low calories + low protein...
Then pile on tons of workouts.
That combo might drop the scale fast, but it’s a disaster for your body.
Work with a coach who cares about your overall health.

A coach who tracks both the scale and fat measurements—not just weight.

A coach who looks at the big picture, not just the number on the scale. If your coach is under fueling you to get results GET A NEW COACH!

Here’s what really happens:

You lose muscle, not just fat

Your metabolism crashes

You feel tired, inflamed, and stuck

Your hormones (like cortisol and insulin) get wrecked

Fat loss slows down — or rebounds

And here’s the kicker: You WILL gain the weight back.
Your body fights back because it’s been starved, your metabolism is slower, and you’re left with more fat and less muscle than before.


Your body thinks it’s in danger.
It holds on to fat.
It burns muscle.
It spikes stress.
And it messes with blood sugar and cravings.

You don’t need to eat less. You need to eat smart.

Here’s what actually works:

A moderate calorie deficit

Enough protein to protect your muscle

Strength training (not just cardio)

Rest + recovery

Balanced hormones

Patience
(Real fat loss = 0.5–1 lb/week.)

You’re not broken.
You’ve just been misled.

Over the past 15 years of coaching, I’ve witnessed incredible transformations—but what most people don’t see is everything in between. The early mornings when motivation is nowhere to be found. The mental battles when self-doubt creeps in. The moments when progress feels too slow, and quitting seems easier than pushing forward.

I’ve seen clients break through barriers they once thought were impossible—not just physically, but mentally. Because fitness isn’t just about lifting weights or hitting a number on the scale. It’s about showing up for yourself, even on the hardest days. It’s about learning to trust the process, even when results aren’t instant. It’s about proving to yourself that you are capable of more than you ever imagined.

True transformation happens when you stop waiting for the perfect conditions and start believing in yourself, no matter what. And that’s where the real magic is. Keep going—you’re stronger than you think.

"Are you tired of feeling drained, sluggish, or stuck? It’s time to stop settling for the way you feel and start taking control. You hold the power to change your life. The first step? Treat your body with the respect it deserves—food is fuel, not just something to pass the time. Choose nourishing, whole foods that give you energy, strength, and vitality. Your health is the foundation of everything you do, and it’s time to invest in it. Step up, take charge, and watch how every part of your life transforms when you begin to care for your body the way it was meant to be cared for."
