Golfers- have you ever been told you shouldn’t play your sport because of something someone saw on an MRI?

Here’s the truth 👇
✅ MRIs show structure at one point in time, not function.
✅ Plenty of pain-free people have disc bulges or degeneration on imaging.
✅ An MRI can’t tell us how your spine rotates in a backswing, how much load it can handle through impact, or how your nervous system reacts after 18 holes.

That’s why I care less about your scan and more about how you actually move.

On the course, it’s not the picture of your spine that matters- it’s what your body can do.

A lot of golfers think pain or inconsistency just comes with the game (or with getting older). But the truth is, it usually comes from ignoring the basics.

By skipping mobility, strength training, recovery, or even proper breathing, you’re making it harder to stay injury-free and harder to improve your performance.

The good news? You don’t need hours in the gym or a complete life overhaul. Small, consistent changes go a long way.

That’s exactly what I share here every week- simple, practical strategies to help you play your best game for years to come.

Right now, I’m reminding myself to slow down and notice the little (and big) things that make life feel good.

3 things I’m grateful for this week:

1️⃣ Celebrating my dad’s retirement in Belgium- quality time with my favorite people and some truly beautiful sights.
2️⃣ Slow Sunday mornings- coffee in hand, sunlight through the windows, and no agenda.
3️⃣ Consistently showing up for movement- a reminder that progress really does come from choosing consistency over perfection.

Gratitude has a way of pulling you out of the noise and putting things into perspective.

Your life will never be perfect, but it can still be deeply good if you’re paying attention.

👇 Tell me one thing you’re grateful for right now. I want to hear it.

Fuel your body with good food. 🍳
Fuel your soul with little joys. 🍫

Yes- nutritious meals, movement, and rest matter.

But so does slowing down to savor the moments that make life sweet. Like stopping to savor chocolate in Belgium.

It’s called balance, and I believe it’s the secret sauce to a happy life.

We only get to do this once- make it a good mix 🙂

Most people aren’t “stuck” because they need a brand-new training gadget, a more advanced swing drill, or another 30-day challenge.

They’re stuck because they haven’t mastered the fundamentals that keep them playing pain-free, powerful, and consistent year-round.

For my clients, this means focusing on:

👉 Moving daily- even if it’s just 5–10 minutes off the course
👉 Not skipping strength training- 2–3x/week to build muscle that supports your swing
👉 Eat for energy, not just convenience
👉 Prioritizing sleep and recovery so you can show up fresh for every round

When you commit to doing these consistently (and doing them well) they stop feeling like “work” and start becoming second nature.

Until the basics are automatic, no advanced strategy in the world will give you the consistency, distance, and longevity you’re after.

So instead of chasing the next big thing, double down on mastering the small things that move the needle. Your future self will thank you.

👇 Which one of these do YOU need to focus on this week?

I’m doing these now so future me says “thank you” instead of “I wish I had…” 🙌

So far I’ve learned that the boring, consistent habits are the ones that actually keep you on the course for decades. It’s not about doing everything perfectly- it’s about doing the right things regularly enough that they stick.

The injury that taught me progress isn’t about just pushing harder.

A couple years ago, I was in an Orangetheory class on 1-mile benchmark day. My foot had been sore for a while, but it didn’t seem that bad. I wanted to prove to myself I could still run a mile under 7 minutes- just like when I was training for a half marathon over 10 years ago. (Yes, this picture is over 10 years old, where does time go?)

At the time, I thought pushing through would give me that same rush of accomplishment I’d always felt. And that my foot would be fine. But what I learned was this: listening to my body was more important than hitting that one goal on that one day.

Here’s what I took away:
👉 Pushing through pain often delays progress more than it speeds it up.
👉 Listening to your body is a skill you have to practice.
👉 There’s no “wasted” day when you’re building for the long game, not the short term rush.

It’s easy to look back and wish we’d done things differently… but every step, good or bad, gets you closer to the golfer you want to be.

I told him to do the exact same movement routine that I do that helps me stay painfree, mobile, and strong at 36. I’m not perfect with it, and you don’t have to be either.

It’s nothing fancy. But it works. Here’s the breakdown:

Step 1: Daily mobility snacks- short bursts of targeted mobility (5–10 min) keep hips, spine, and shoulders moving well without adding stress to your schedule

Step 2: Strength training 2–3x/week- especially posterior chain and core, so your swing power comes from the right places instead of your low back.

Step 3: Pre-round warm-up- 5 minutes to wake up the body before you tee off so you’re not “using the first 3 holes” as your warm-up.

Step 4: Recovery built in – walking, breathwork, hydration and, need I say it, sleep! …to keep soreness down and avoid flare-ups.

You don’t need a 90-minute gym session every day to feel like an athlete again. You just need a plan that works with your life- and you need to stick to it.

The Very Best Day.
9.5.24.

So close, no matter how far
Couldn’t be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters.

Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words, I don’t just say
And nothing else matters.

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters.

Happy Mother’s Day to the one and only  . Had the best weekend being with you. So very proud to be your daughter ❤️
