With all the conflicting information out there on diet/exercise/health it can be overwhelming to figure out what approach is right for YOU.

What if next year… you didn’t have to start over again?
What if you had someone checking in, keeping you accountable, and helping you actually stay consistent — month after month?
👀 Black Friday is almost here, and I’m bringing back something special for those ready to make 2026 the year of real results (and less “I’ll start Monday”).
Stay tuned — my most popular accountability program returns next week, and this time it’s even better.
🔥 Limited spots. Big savings. Real results.

7 Weeks Post-Op: The Real Journey
It’s hard to put into words what the last few months have been like.
From living in chronic pain for years… to making the decision to have surgery… to now, almost 7 weeks into recovery — it’s been a journey of every emotion possible.
There’s gratitude — for a hip that no longer grinds or locks or shoots pain down my leg.
But there’s also sadness — for the parts of life and movement I lost along the way.
There’s frustration — on the slow days when my body feels stiff or sore.
And there’s loneliness — in the quiet moments when healing feels invisible to everyone but me.
Recovery isn’t linear. Some days I feel strong and hopeful, other days I wonder if I’ll ever feel “normal” again. But even through the tears, I know I’m still moving forward.
I’m learning patience. I’m learning to listen to my body. And I’m learning that healing isn’t just physical — it’s deeply emotional, too.
Grateful for how far I’ve come, and trusting that I’m still becoming. 💫

6 weeks ago I had my total hip replacement… and 6 weeks ago I woke up after surgery and realized the pain I’d been living with was gone.
Yes, there was surgery pain — but that deep, grinding, sharp, stop-you-in-your-tracks pain? Gone. Best decision I ever made was to advocate for myself and my body!❤️
It’s been a long 6 weeks, and I’ve learned a lot about myself:
✨ It’s okay to ask for what you need.
✨ It’s okay to need help — with everything.
✨ You’re never too old for your parents to comfort you.
✨ Adult daughters really are the best.
✨ I’m surrounded by some incredible family, friends and clients.
✨ The mental part of recovery is tougher than the physical now-still limited in movement, still walking with a cane, and small outings still tire me out.
✨ Learning how to keep your own company, and to truly rest, is harder than it sounds… but so important.
This week I’m gradually easing back to work with my nutrition clients, and by next week I’ll be accepting new clients again — slowly but surely finding my rhythm.
It’s been humbling, healing, and eye-opening — and I’m grateful every single day that the worst pain is finally behind me. ❤️

Happy birthday to my husband — 52 years young and still up for every adventure that comes our way. So many laughs and so much gratitude for this life together. Love you.

Feeling extra thankful this year. 🧡
Having hip surgery has already been such a life-changing experience — it’s forced me to slow down, accept help, and truly appreciate the people around me.
I’m so grateful for my family, friends, and clients who have surrounded me with care, patience, and encouragement through it all.
To my loyal clients — thank you for your grace and understanding while I take this time to recover properly. Your continued support means more than you know.
Wishing everyone a beautiful Thanksgiving weekend full of rest, connection, and gratitude. 🦃✨

Tomorrow’s the big day — I’m trading in this worn-out hip for a shiny new upgrade. 🚑🔧
I can’t thank you all enough for the messages, well wishes, and support. Seriously, it means the world to me and has made this whole process feel a lot less scary (and a little more exciting). 💙
I’m nervous, of course, but mostly I’m ready to walk without limping, keep up with life again, and finally be able to talk about literally anything other than my hip. 😅 Here’s to healing, airport metal detectors, and getting back to normal life stronger than ever!
❤️

Hi everyone! 🌟
I wanted to share that I’ll be having hip replacement surgery on Sept 22. To get everything organized before I step away:
• Massage clients: Last appointments are Sept 10–20. I’ll resume shorter sessions in late November and return to my normal schedule in December.
• Nutrition clients: Follow-ups will pause for 6 weeks starting the 20th and resume in early November.
• Summer Challenge weigh-ins: Please book between Sept 10–19.
• Fall Challenge updates: October sessions will be online only and the challenge will run through January. Make sure your initial check-ins are scheduled before Sept 20 so you’re all set for the new layout.
You can schedule everything here:

Thank you so much for your patience and support — I’m looking forward to coming back stronger, pain-free, and ready to help you feel your best!

Chronic pain touches everything. Work. Family. Sleep. Energy. Happiness. There hasn’t been a break in years. And these past few months have been worse, because all the shots and treatments that used to take the edge off have worn off. Now it’s just me and the pain.
I hate needing tramadol just to get through the day. I hate crying all the time. I hate feeling like this version of me is the only one left.
But—I’ve got a pre-op date. September 8. Which means surgery is finally coming, within 3 months. That’s the tiny thread I’m hanging onto.
Work actually helps me. Weird as that sounds. It hurts the whole time, but at least I’m distracted. At home, it’s just me and the pain.
I’m sharing this because pain is invisible. And living with it, day after day after day, takes so much more than most people know. But I’m choosing hope. Relief is coming. And I’m ready.

Discipline looks boring, until you see what it builds.
It’s the quiet work no one claps for.
The choices no one sees.
The consistency that looks ordinary—until the results show up extraordinary.
Keep building. ✨

After 20+ years in this industry, here’s what I know for sure:
1️⃣ Quick fixes don’t work — unless duct tape counts.
2️⃣ Your body is wise… but sometimes it whispers, and we only hear when it starts yelling.
3️⃣ Food is more than fuel — it’s information for your hormones, energy, and mood.
4️⃣ Consistency always wins — perfection is boring anyway…seriously, Consistency beats perfection every single time.
5️⃣ Accountability is everything.
Because let’s be honest — if it’s just you, you’ll talk yourself out of the workout, the meal prep, the early bedtime. (We’ve all been there 🙋♀️).
But when someone’s walking beside you? Cheering you on? Maybe even checking in on you? Suddenly the hard stuff feels lighter… and a whole lot more doable.
That’s exactly why I created the Fall Reset. It’s not about rules, restriction, or “starting over.” It’s about tuning back in, finding your energy again, and having a little accountability along the way.
The most dangerous days aren’t the high pain days — it’s the low pain ones.
That tiny taste of freedom makes you think you can do all the things you’ve been putting off, take the dogs for a hike and ride your bike- until your body reminds you who’s boss.
Cue the flare-up. Cue the regret. Cue the cycle all over again.
Shoutout to everyone who’s ever lived this dangerous game of chronic pain roulette — I see you. 🖤
