Saw this tonight and it hit in such a profound way.

Life is a continual journey.
I have many teachers.

Will I ever be ready? In any facet?
I won't know until I take the first step...

Sometimes you have to go back to the basics and start over... But this time it's not from scratch.

This time, it is meeting yourself where you are.
This time, you give yourself grace.
This time, you know what you are capable of and know what it takes to reach that ultimate goal.

"Am I ready?
Probably not...

Will I falter again?
Highly likely.

Is it going to stop me?
Hell no!"

This is the conversation that is currently going on in my head... And it is HARD! Giving myself grace is HARD! Dedicating myself to a goal is HARD! Pushing myself is HARD!

I'm taking baby steps to get back into it. But I'm getting back into it. That's all that matters. πŸ’–

Time to get myself back. πŸ’ͺ

It's the time of year that we are prone to think of everyone before ourselves. How can we make others happy, what can I do to help others, making meals, buying gifts, etc. And selfcare feels selfish.

πŸ‘DOπŸ‘THEπŸ‘SELFCAREπŸ‘

We all know you can't pour from an empty cup. But for many of us, we send ourselves into a spiral and when the new year comes, we are already burnt out. This leads to "New year, new me!"... Which inevitably leads to lackluster results and negative sense of self.

This year, I'm shifting. I haven't felt well since Friday night. I took the time to rest and work with my body to release what I could. Now, I'm getting the vitamins and minerals my body needs to do the rest. has an amazing new iv therapy lounge that has super comfy chairs, cozy blankets and knowledgeable naturopathic Dr's to ensure you get what you need!

Looking forward to getting back to my best and rocking this holiday season. πŸ’–

Every once in a while I get pictures that pop up in my gallery stories from years past. This one made me stop in my tracks.

The first image is from September, 2023.
The second image I took on Saturday night, Sept. 21,2024.

I have no idea what my weight was in the first image but I do remember how uncomfortable my body felt. That, for me, is the more important part. (if anyone is wondering, I am down 44lbs from January 🫢🌻)

Last year, in April, I started a program to become a Registered Massage Therapist in BC. I learned very quickly that my body was no where near ready to take on this career but I had no motivation or mental strength to do something about it. No matter how much I beat myself up or tore myself down.

Getting my ADHD and Binge Eating disorder diagnosis has literally changed my life! I know some people see it as 'Putting a label on it' or giving myself excuses. However, this did exactly the opposite. I now give myself GRACE! It has given me an explanation for why I have been experiencing life the way I have been. And now, I have motivation to push myself forward without guilt for ways I've been in the past.

I couldn't think of a better way to start off my 40th Birthday than to show up for myself! πŸ’–

I found an amazing group training at a local rec centre months ago and decided it was a perfect class to kick start 40. πŸ’ͺ

Thing was, I didn't know I was going to make it last night. I ended my day yesterday with the worst RSD I'd felt in some time. It happens pretty much every year on my birthday. I did some shopping therapy - alone, didn't get home until after 11pm and went to bed after 1am. I heal a little more every time. β€οΈβ€πŸ©Ή

Last night I vowed to show up for myself because I have to be able to count on me. Even when things aren't going the way I 'want', I have a choice.

Today, I choose me!

It's been a while, so I thought I'd show up again. Mental health is no joke! β€οΈβ€πŸ©Ή

Got to the gym this morning, something I've been lacking since May, but this time something shifted. I no longer shamed myself for not going. This time, I honoured the need to step back. And you know, it helped! I didn't gain any weight back. I didn't turn to food for comfort. (let's be real, there were moments... But it wasn't ALL THE TIME like it used to be.)

And when I came back, I didn't set ridiculous standards for myself to uphold. I let my body guide me to its place. πŸ’–

Well, things are looking up!
We have some new adventures coming... Stay tuned!

And enjoy a couple images that make me proud of where I am today. πŸ₯°

Pic 1: Me! Because I deserve to be celebrated!
Pic 2: My new personal best... From this morning!!!

How I've chosen to re-define success:
You'll see steps 1-8 below. (Sweaty selfie & all πŸ˜…) It may not look like much but it is huge to me!

In reflection I noticed a few things....

πŸ’₯I'm nowhere near as flush in the face as I was when I first started rowing just under 6 weeks ago.

πŸ’₯I have been able to *DOUBLE* my distance from 1000m to 2000m!!

πŸ’₯I show up for MYSELF now. 😎 No more excuses.

πŸ’₯In the process, I have been healing wounds I didn't know existed.

Happy Heavenly Birthday Dad!

I am halfway through one of the hardest days of each year and it has been a roller-coaster of emotions. πŸ˜­πŸ’«πŸ˜”πŸ₯°

To say I miss you is an understatement. My heart aches when I realize that I can never text you again. I will never hear your voice on the other end of the call. I can never hug you again.

Until today, I used to celebrate your birthday by enjoying a Bic Mac from McDonald's. It was one of the fond memories I had from my youth. But today I realized that the majority of our memories revolve around food. The good and the bad.

As I grow & heal I recognize that it is time I let go of this. Today, I am allowing my feelings to flow (I've cried like 3x already πŸ™ˆπŸ˜Άβ€πŸŒ«οΈ.)

So, I won't be having that Big Mac today. But I definitely honour my father in my heart. He is a large part of who I am today. πŸ’ž When I entered the gym this morning I saw 2 new machines - stairs. I knew I had to give it my best. And today, that was only 5 mins on level 5. However, I did slam out 2000m on the rower, which is HUGE success in my journey. πŸŽ‰

Today, I take a big step forward.
Happy Healing. 🌻

Healing = Messy
Healing = Fueling your body with good, real food
Healing = Learning to love yourself so you can love those around you that much deeper.

I've been showing myself some legit self-love by moving my body on a regular basis at the gym over the past 3 weeks. Slowly I've been learning to heal past wounds. Understanding what it means to show up for myself, changing my definition of success.

Today, heavy emotions came flowing out of me without my control. I honour my feelings and trust in the process. I am releasing the self I once was. Making space for the ME I'm becoming.

I called on my friends to support me. I let them in. I opened up about my struggles to my boys. We don't keep these things hidden from them so they know we are a safe space if they ever need to share.

Happy Valentine's Day
Happy β™₯️ Day
Happy Self-love Day

However you celebrate, share your love! 🌹

Repeat after me...
"I can do hard things!"

Now, say it again... Go ahead, I'll wait. πŸ’—πŸŒ»

Jan. 23, 2024 I chose to find ways to start moving my body. I felt overwhelmed, out of place, and had no idea where or how to start. I've done pretty much everything before. I knew I loved lifting weights but didn't have the confidence to jump back in there. So, I asked for help.

stepped up! In a big way. I don't think she realizes exactly what she gave me that day. She sat with me and asked me questions. Goals? Current lifestyle? Likes/dislikes? All the things. Then she gave me guidance. Cardio!

Now, I have never had great endurance. It's been something I have been avoiding, if possible. πŸ™ˆ But she said, "No weights yet. Just build your endurance and eventually we'll add weights in there."

Just over a week and I was already itching to add weights. πŸ˜† So, I asked her when she thought I should. She said 6-8 weeks of cardio first. Then we'll check in.

Well, this morning I understand why. I was tired. I didn't want to do cardio. But, after pushing through, I walked away feeling so much better about myself. Because I pushed through.

Endurance isn't just about the distance you can run at a certain speed. It's about pushing through the mundane. It is easy to show up for yourself when it's something you enjoy. The success is showing up for yourself when it gets hard or boring. πŸ’œπŸ’«πŸŒ»

Today... I showed up. Today, I pushed through the boredom. And I will be back again on Friday. πŸ₯°πŸŽ‰πŸŒŸ

You may be asking, "Why is she posting all these sweatie selfies lately?"

Well, let me explain...
Our healing happens in waves. We heal, we grow, we find another wound that needs healing. We are in a contiuous loop of healing & growth. But, not all healing looks the same.

Currently, I'm working on healing an emotional AND physical wound.

My whole life I've struggled with my body image. It was hammered into me that I needed to look a certain way in order to be healthy. This damaged me on multiple levels.

It killed my spirit if I wasn't skinny enough. I hated myself if I ate certain foods. Shopping for clothing gave me anxiety and sent me down a road of depression. My self-esteem was non-existent.

Today, I am healing all those wounds. I look at myself in the mirror with love in my eyes. I put on clothing that makes me feel good. And I move my body in ways that make me feel strong!

This is my success. 🌹
I show up for me! πŸ’ͺπŸ’–

Another coming at you.

Let me tell you, this smile is genuine. I am tired of feeling tired, sluggish, weak. Today, I showed up for myself again! And this is how I will continue to measure my success.

I have had some NSV (non-scale victories) this week.
The biggest one... Since I started my RMT program, I had to use 2 straps on my lotion holster in order to make it fit. The single was about 3" too small so, without an extender, I couldn't carry my lotion bottle on my side. Well, this week as I prepped for my day in the student clinic, I realized it was getting too big. So I thought, hey... Let's give it a shot and remove one strap. IT FIT!!!! And now I have to tighten it a little to keep it from slipping down when I pump for lotion during a treatment!!

I am feeling stronger. My back isn't hurting as much when I wake up. And I have more energy! The fact that my clothes are fitting better helps keep me motivated. πŸŽ‰

All this to say, it's never too late to get going. You don't have to be in a special class, eat a rigid diet, or change your lifestyle drastically. is the best way to start.

If you need cheerleader to help you get started, message me! I'm here! for more than just raising children. Our healing needs a support system too.

What are you doing to move your body today? It will help your spiritual, emotional, and energetic healing. I promise! πŸ’–
