Some moments feel like they stop time — and this was one of them. Watching my daughter say ‘yes’ to the love of her life felt like witnessing every milestone flash before my eyes: her first steps, first day of school, the smile in that childhood photo… all the little pieces that led her right here.

As I stood there watching the proposal, I couldn’t help but think of my mom. I know she would have been beaming, maybe crying happy tears, probably saying something loving and with pride. I felt her with us — in the excitement, in the beauty of the moment, in the sunshine over a bridge I once stood on as a little girl, and in the love that surrounded my daughter.

I never want to forget this feeling. This chapter isn’t just a new beginning for my daughter, it’s a memory I’ll hold onto for the rest of my life. A reminder of love that keeps growing, and love that never leaves us. Here’s to my beautiful girl, to the life she’s building, and to the people we carry with us along the way.

Strong back = strong everything. 💪✨

So many people skip back day, but training your posterior chain is one of the most important things you can do for your body. Your back supports your posture, your lifts, your daily movement, and honestly… your confidence.

A well-trained back helps you:
✨ Stand taller
✨ Reduce neck + shoulder pain
✨ Protect your spine
✨ Improve core strength
✨ Build balanced, powerful upper-body muscle
✨ Feel strong from every angle

You don’t need endless exercises — just consistency, tension, and intention. Pull, row, hinge, repeat. Your future self will thank you. 🖤

This is why I do what I do! This young woman came to me, not too long ago via telehealth through one of my networks, and she lives in Florida! It’s amazing how impactful nutrition consultation can be to motivate and educate. I live for this stuff! Empower! 💪🏻🩷

In an effort to continue to expand my reach and grow my practice in nutrition, I’ve recently joined another networking group, Nourish. These platforms have given me an incredible opportunity to reach people from around the country to try to make a positive impact from a nutrition and overall health standpoint. It is a privilege to be trusted to provide this kind of care, and I am grateful for each and every opportunity. Seeing a dietitian virtually, is an excellent opportunity to establish a relationship in confidence, in a convenient and effective way. Both the Fay and Nourish networks provide a seamless process that can easily apply your insurance to cover these visits and offer excellent tools and educational resources that greatly support my mission. Please see the links for both of these in my bio for more information. The power is in your hands to take control of your health and thrive to greater heights! Empower! 💪🏻🍎

Another birthday in the books! Aging has always been, as it is for many, a mixed bag of feelings. With age comes wisdom, experience, growth, change, challenge, and reflection, among other things. My goal for myself has always been to prioritize my health so I can hopefully thrive at any age. Though my life may have twists and turns, my strength has been a constant. I can only hope to continue my journey with this at the forefront so that I can embrace everything that is to come with health and happiness. This has been a hugely transitional year for me personally but I am so excited for what’s coming. This birthday, I celebrated with some incredible people who bring me such joy including two of my 3 amazing children aged 22 and 24. We danced to the 90’s, reminding me how old I’m getting but hey! It beats the alternative! Here’s to aging! Empower! 🩷💃💪🏻

This lovely lady has made such gains since we started working together that sometimes even I can’t believe it! She’s a hardcore cyclist who added strength training, tightened up her nutrition, and boom 💥 serious results! She’s still working on finding the exact balance to support her riding while still maintaining her muscle strength and development, but that’s all part of the process! Finding your balance and hitting your stride! I have the best job! I get to be a part of the journey and spend time with some of my favorite people! 🔥💪🏻

I’ve been jump roping for years to elevate my cardio a bit, and make sure that I can still jump. As we age the willingness and ability to move through jumping diminishes. It doesn’t take much to incorporate a little bit of it into your routine and a jump rope is an effective, efficient, and fun way to practice doing that. Not to mention it does get your heart rate, jumping too. Consider adding it into your routine during your cardio training a couple of times a week. It takes a little practice to get consistent with it and I’m still trying to learn a couple of movements, but it’s definitely a lot of fun!! Empower💪🏻🩷

One statement that I hear time and time again from women over the years that I have either worked with in training or nutrition, is the concern about becoming bulky or not feminine from lifting. Now aesthetically, some women may not prefer to have defined muscles, which of course is ok, but no matter how hard a woman trains unless she is using enhancement drugs, it is impossible for her to become disproportionately large muscularly. The main reason women generally don’t get as bulky as men from lifting weights comes down to hormones, muscle fiber distribution, and overall body composition. Men generally have 10 to 20 times more testosterone than women. Keep in mind that training muscles and taking care of your muscular system is as important as taking care of your brain, heart, or any other system in your body. Instead of subscribing to the idea, that muscularity is not feminine embrace your strength, maintain your strength and grow stronger. We are women! We can be all things strong and beautiful! Empower! 💪🏻🩷 💪
