🚨 BIG ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨

The long weekend’s over.
Backpacks are packed.
School starts in TWO days. 😳🎒📚

And if you’re looking at your fall calendar thinking:
“Where the heck do I fit into all of this?”
We see you.

Because while you’re managing everyone else’s meals, meltdowns, and meet-the-teacher nights…
your own goals tend to get buried.

But not this time.
👉🏼 Not this fall.
👉🏼 Not with the Power Parent Program in your corner.

If you’re tired of feeling exhausted, uncomfortable in your body, and like you’re starting from scratch every September…

This is YOUR time.

🎯 Our 12-week Metabolic Priming Program is officially OPEN!! And it’s built for busy parents like you who want:
✔️ To lose 10–20lbs without cutting carbs or counting every crumb
✔️ Short, effective 30–40 min workouts you can actually fit in
✔️ A plan that doesn’t fall apart when life gets chaotic
✔️ 1:1 support and accountability every step of the way

And because back-to-school shouldn’t be just for the kids…

🎁 We’re throwing in 4 FREE WEEKS of coaching
PLUS a FREE Ninja Creami for the first 3 to join (yes, dessert is part of the plan 😎)

So no, you don’t need to “wait for things to calm down.”

You need a system that works when things are messy.

📩 DM us “FALL” to claim your spot + snag your bonus…
or hit the link in our bio before Sept 15th to get started.

Let this be the fall you put YOU on the list. 🍂💛

You’re afraid to eat more and honestly? We get it.

You’ve been told that eating less is the only way to lose weight.

That hunger is just part of the process.

That if you’re not exhausted, you’re not working hard enough.

We’ve been there.
We’ve worked with so many parents who felt the same way.

But here’s what no one told you:

Undereating is one of the main reasons your metabolism isn’t where it should be...why your body isn’t burning...

Take Susan, a mom of 2 who joined our Power Parent Program.

She came to us eating 1200-1400 calories a day, working out 3-5x/week on her peloton bike and not seeing a single change.

She was tired, frustrated, and convinced something was wrong with her body.

We increased her calories.
Added more protein.
Pulled back the workouts.
And within 6 weeks?

➡️ Her body started to let go of fat
➡️ Her energy skyrocketed
➡️ She finally felt in control again

So let me ask you this:

What if you didn’t have to starve to see results?

What if you could eat more, move smarter, and actually enjoy your life while feeling amazing in your body?

Would you finally be able to stick to your goals?

Because here’s the truth…

👉🏼 Eating less hasn’t worked.
👉🏼 You’re still tired, still stuck, and still starting over every Monday.

So how much longer are you going to let that be your story?

If you’re ready to start a new chapter, one that prioritizes metabolism, energy, and sustainability…

📩 DM us “RESET” and we’ll send you a guide with tips we use to help busy parents eat more, stress less, and finally see results that stick.

Perfectionist Parents… the all-or-nothing achievers… this one’s for you.

You’ve got a lot on your plate, and somehow, you still manage to juggle the chaos.

To everyone else, you’re a supermom.
You show up. You hold it down. You get it DONE.

You plan the meals, prep the snacks, schedule the workouts, handle the work calls, the school runs, the meltdowns… all of it.

But then one thing goes wrong...
The baby skips a nap.
Someone’s sick.
You forgot to defrost the chicken and now it’s 6pm and everyone’s starving (including you).

And just like that, the perfectionist alarm goes off.

“F*ck it.”
You order pizza, pour a glass of wine, maybe polish off the kids’ leftover fries because why not, today’s already off the rails, right?

And tomorrow?
You punish yourself.
“I need to get back on track.”
“I’ll eat nothing but salads and hit 4 workouts this week.”

But here’s the truth…

➡️ You don’t need more willpower.
➡️ You don’t need to start over again.
➡️ You don’t need another unrealistic plan that only works when life is perfectly calm (spoiler alert: it never is).

What you need is a system that meets you where you are at in this moment...in the real-life mess of parenting, work, and trying to feel like YOU again.

This was me for my teens, 20’s, 30’s. But after building and following our own Power Parent Blueprint, I’ve let go of the guilt, the let down, the over correcting.

Now I know it’s about...

✅ Short, effective workouts (40 mins or less)
✅ Realistic nutrition that includes pizza AND protein
✅ Support for when life hits the fan (because it will)
✅ A proven plan that works even when you don’t feel “perfect”

So yes—you can be a present parent and prioritize yourself.
You can hit your goals without guilt, stress, or giving up your life.

📩 DM us “SCREW PERFECTION” and we’ll send you the details to get started.

Let’s ditch the all-or-nothing trap and build a plan that helps you channel those Type b’s ;)

When pasta salad feels like “cheating” on your goals…
When you avoid tank tops because you’re not ready to show your arms…
When you feel like summer chaos is the perfect excuse to quit…
And then…

You start learning that you can eat pasta salad and still crush your goals.
You find yourself slipping on that tank top without a second thought.
You stay consistent even with all 4 kids home and the house in chaos—because it finally feels doable.

Clothes fit better. Energy is higher. Strength is growing.
And maybe for the first time in years, you’re not just chasing results… you’re actually living your life while getting them.

That’s the shift we help busy parents make. 💛
Strong. Confident. Free from the diet rules that never worked.

👉 If you’re ready for your own “pasta salad moment,” DM me “READY” and let’s get started.

Ever feel like you don’t recognize yourself after having kids?

Yep, we’ve been there too.

As former athletes, we thought we knew our bodies inside and out. But after becoming parents, everything felt different.

For Jana, postpartum recovery hit hard, especially after dealing with prolapse. For others, it’s the stubborn weight, the exhaustion, or feeling like their metabolism has just stopped.

For Jon, the first couple years of fatherhood and running a business took its toll!..He found it hard to find time to make my health a priority as he had done before we had Jayden.

Getting back to feeling like you isn’t just hard… it can feel impossible.

Your favorite clothes don’t fit. You avoid being in photos. No matter what you try, that belly fat won’t budge. And the exhaustion? It’s next level.

But everything changed when we stopped punishing our bodies and started understanding them.

We discovered a sustainable way to lose fat, build strength, and feel better than ever—without cutting carbs, skipping family dinners, or spending hours in the gym.

Here’s where we’re at now:
✅ Loving how we feel in our clothes
✅ Stronger than ever
✅ A metabolism that actually works for us
✅ Losing weight without crazy restrictions

But the best part? We feel like ourselves again.

Now, we help other busy parents do the same… because you deserve to feel strong, confident, and at home in your body again.

“I used to feel like nothing was working.

No matter what I tried, the belly bloating stayed, the fat loss stalled, and I felt stuck. Deep down, I knew that if I just had the right structure and support, I could finally reach my goals… I just needed a way to make it all click.

Fast forward to now—my approach to food feels balanced for the first time in a long time. I’m eating whole foods and treats without guilt (yep, even pasta salad… which I used to think was “off limits” if I wanted results 🙃).

I’m spending less time hiding my body and more time actually living. I’m asking for help when I need it, making tweaks without spiraling, and even seeing my nutrition as a fun puzzle instead of something I can ‘fail.’

This has been more than fat loss. It’s been a mindset shift, a confidence boost, and a reminder that my goals are possible without obsessing over food or having a perfect workout routine.

I’m so proud of how far I’ve come and I’ve only just begun!💪🏼”

👏🏼 We are SO proud of you too!

And if you’re reading this thinking, I wish that could be me… it can.

That’s literally what we have done for 100’s of parents. Send us a DM with the word POWER and we’ll share how we can make it happen for you too.

Jon never said it out loud…
But I could see it.

The heaviness he carried.
The pressure to provide.
To stay strong.
To always be “okay.”
Even when he wasn’t.

He was doing everything he could.
But still felt like he was falling short as a dad.

“I feel like I’m trying so hard… and somehow still failing,”
he told me once.
And that one stuck with me.

Because I think a lot of dads feel that way.
Like they’re never doing enough.

And they don’t know how to ask for more support without feeling weak.

But what I’ve watched Jon do over the past few years?

Is quietly, powerfully change from inside.

He decided he was being complacent. So he started being intentional and working on himself.

He started planning his workouts again, not just going through the motions.

He worked with a therapist on how to regulate instead of react.

He became more present with Jayden.
More open with his emotions.
More confident in who he is, not just as a dad, but as a man.

And THAT work?

That’s what makes him the kind of father Jay will always remember.

Not the perfect one.
But the one who kept showing up.
Who kept learning.
Who chose growth over being everything to everyone.

If you’re a dad doing that work, even when no one sees it…
I hope you know: that effort is the difference.

💛 Tag a dad who might need to hear this today.

Because showing up for your health, your growth, and your emotions? That’s not weakness, it’s fatherhood at its strongest.
