How I Blend Fitness and Nursing
as a personal trainer & nurse living a busy (but beautiful) life and honestly, I wouldn’t have it any other way.
1. I ONLY train on my days off.
If I’m on shift, I’m not stepping foot near the gym. Steps, food, sleep, and hydration = the priorities. Recovery > ego.
2. I track my progress every few months. Progress pics hit different when you didn’t think you’d changed.
Can’t see it? Ask ChatGPT, it’ll tell you. Or ask me 😉
3. I’m learning to be kind to myself.
Still a work in progress. Dr. Kristin Neff’s book is helping.
My inner critic? there name’s “Grumpy Guts.” And we’re learning boundaries.
4. TIME OUT is essential.
I still find it hard, but even an hour here and there makes a difference.
When you start planning it in, your body learns when to rest.
5. I eat to FUEL.
I’m not here to shrink, I’m here to be strong.
Big, phat, balanced meals, always.
6. I set challenges.
For me and my clients. It keeps things spicy and gives us something to work toward.
7. I prioritise sleep.
Because cranky isn’t a vibe. Your girl gets her extra minutes, trust me.
8. I get outside.
Fresh air, small joys, little walks, YES PLEASE. Underrated magic. And time off social media = bliss.
9. And with a bestie?
Everything’s better with your girl by your side.
