Spring is a reminder that nothing about us is fixed.

A change in environment or pace is a luxury, I know, but it’s so powerful that can create space to notice what is happening in your body. You may start to recognize your energy, tension, hunger, and fatigue more clearly.

When you acknowledge those signals, you create an opportunity to change your response. You can shift, soften, and reset right where you are.

The same applies to fit. Fit is not a determined mold or number you chase, but something you feel. It shows up in how you move, how you sit, and how you determine what fits into your life. Not the other way around.

That feeling is powerful because it’s what builds momentum, and that is what carries you forward.

Morning protein can feel like a stretch for so many women, especially before a workout.

Your body is not always hungry yet, and it can feel easier to skip it, especially those with digestive issues. But the good news is your body remains adaptable.

When you practice eating at a certain time, the body starts to expect it.

This is less about forcing it, and more about building a rhythm your body can rely on.

Research shows that total daily protein intake matters more than exact timing, with no significant advantage to when protein is consumed (PMID: 32232404).

But the pattern I see in my most successful female clients is seeding protein at each feeding opportunity, across the day.

Personal Note:
For me, this means adding in a pre-workout meal right now to see how it affects things. I noticed that in the last month my inconsistency with those last 20g of protein at night, which if I am honest, I know I am resisting. We the strategy, not the goal line.
I am experimenting with protein timing as my protein intake has increased over the past 2-3 years, slowly adjusting as I notice my own tendencies and what works for my body right now, just like I do with my clients.

Also… clearly change isn’t easy and not everyone in this house is thrilled about it, least to say my own canine reflection. 😂

Reference:
Wirth et al., The Journal of Nutrition (2020) systematic review found protein timing had no significant effect compared to total intake. PMID: 32232404.

I have been experiencing migraines almost daily for the past two weeks, and this small habit has really helped me on the days I feel off track…

This meal isn’t perfect, but there is comfort in knowing something nourishing I enjoy is waiting for me when I’m ready for it.

Noticing how much my mood shapes what I reach for, and how clothing can either meet me where I am or pull me further away from it.

As women, we have so many narratives around fixing, changing, and evaluating our bodies, but far fewer that center how it actually feels to be in them.

I am more interested in that conversation, what I like to call dressing for regulation.

Hugest hugs, 🤗

One of the biggest mistakes women make that leads to calorie surplus….

they’re under supported in HOW they eat….and I did it too…

Rushing
Multitasking
Eating on the go

Because I know what mornings look like for most moms: coffee only, maybe a slice of toast dangling from your fingertips as you steer your way to school drop-off.

Then the day becomes a blur of productivity. Working through lunch, squeezing in errands, or shoving down that slightly melted “healthy” protein bar before pickup.

If you’re consistently hitting your macros but still wondering about stubborn belly fat or constant afternoon hunger, this might be worth paying attention to.

Your body needs to be in a rest-and-digest state to properly metabolize food.

If you’re eating while stressed, rushing, or multitasking, your nervous system is in fight-or-flight mode. When that happens, digestion isn’t prioritized. Your body is focused on getting you through the perceived stressor, not efficiently processing your lunch.

Start Where You Are
If a protein bar lunch and maybe an apple are where you are right now, start there. It’s a deliberate pause in the middle of my day where I sit at the kitchen counter, in front of my plate, relaxed and focused on eating.

Easy Implementation:

Start with one meal.
Sit down.
Give your body a chance to actually receive it.

March 11 still brings tears to my eyes.

Watching Japan rebuild after the tsunami showed the quiet strength of a country I love. And for anyone living through the uncertainty of trauma, the long stretch of not knowing what comes next… I feel you.

At Nijō Castle, KYOTOGRAPHIE also presented The Wave, In Memoriam by French photographer Richard Collasse, created after the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake/tsunami. You moved through the installation in complete darkness with a flashlight, slowly revealing the images yourself. It echoed the disorientation people experienced in the aftermath.

Later in the main building, a large photo of rows of theater seats are wrapped in black tarps, their lace antimacassars still carefully in place, small flowers resting where people once sat. The ordinary details and thoughtful gestures somehow make the heaviness of grief even more human.

One of the most radical things I ask women to do during their weekly one hour live coaching sessions is to look at and compare their progress photos.

Not to measure.
Not to criticize.
Just to observe.

The first time most women open those photos, their minds are flooded with feelings and thoughts about what they should look like.

They see the areas where their body isn’t where they think it should be yet. They replay decisions they wish they had made differently. They focus on flaws, imperfections, and the distance between where they are and where they think they should be. When this is done solo, I can see how my clients can get discouraged.

But something interesting happens when they wait to look again a few days or even a week later.
The emotional charge has faded.

And with some prompting, they start to see things they couldn’t see before on their own. A shift in posture. A little more strength in their legs. A subtle change around the midsection. Sometimes even beauty in a body they were criticizing days earlier.

The body didn’t drastically change in those few days.
Their lens did.

And learning to shift that lens may be one of the most important skills women can develop when it comes to their health. Over time, that shift starts to look like confidence.
Because when women stop only looking for what is wrong, they finally make space to see what is already working.

PS: Putting these images into the world isn’t something I would normally do. But this process has helped me accept the body I have, instead of continuing to chase the idealized version I once had in my mind.

After 13 years with the same Tokyo hairstylist, I no longer question the process. I love that he always has ideas for me, but we also flip through my inspiration photos in the moment:

• a male model which leads to…..
• the helmet guy from He Man
• The Mandalorian 😂

…and after much discussion 😅, something amazing always happens.

This time: THE JELLYFISH haircut. Trust the process.
