👋🏼 Hi friends!

📱 Just a quick update to let my Mana Honu Wellness family know that their workouts have been updated in the app for next week!

🌳 Fun Fact: Trees talk to each other using an underground “wood‑wide web.” Through a network of fungi attached to their roots, trees send nutrients, chemical signals, distress warnings and even support to weaker or younger trees!

If one tree is attacked by insects, it sends chemical messages through the fungal network to warn the others so they can boost their defenses. Mother trees even funnel extra nutrients to their saplings. It’s basically the forest version of “Girl, something’s wrong — brace yourself.”

Nature built group chats before humans ever did.

Happy Forestry & Happy Lifting!

✨ Wonder Woman Wednesday: Miellyn Fitzwater Barrows ✨

Today’s Wonder Woman Wednesday goes out to someone whose brilliance has never dimmed — even when life took us down totally different hallways in high school.

Miellyn was one of those rare people who didn’t have to try to be memorable — she just was. Even back then, when our worlds didn’t always overlap, I still considered her one of my best friends and one of my favorite humans walking around that school. There was just something about her energy — warm, witty, wildly imaginative — that made you feel lucky to be in her orbit.

And that creativity? It didn’t just stick around… it exploded into a career that is honestly awe‑inspiring.

This woman has:

Built a life around creative writing

Produced content across multiple industries

Crafted stories for video games (which is just ridiculously cool)

Owned and operated multiple businesses

Reinvented herself again and again with that signature Miellyn magic

She is, without exaggeration, one of the most remarkable people I know.

And then there’s her son — truly one of the coolest kids ever. Watching him grow up through her posts has been a joy all its own. You can see her spark in him, that same mix of curiosity and creativity that makes the world feel bigger.

Her husband — who I’ve never met but feel like I know through the way she shares their life — seems like the perfect match for her. The kind of partnership that feels aligned, supportive, and earned through years of choosing each other. She deserves that kind of love a million times over.

Miellyn, I miss the days when catching up didn’t require calendars and time zones and adulting. I hope our paths cross again soon, because you’ve always been someone I’ve held close, even from afar.

Happy Wonder Woman Wednesday to you — a woman who creates worlds, builds dreams, and makes everything she touches a little more extraordinary. 💛✨

🪼 Fun Fact!!! There’s a species of jellyfish that can age in reverse…like a biological “nope, I’m not doing adulthood today.”

It’s called Turritopsis dohrnii, and when it gets stressed, injured, or just generally over life’s nonsense, it reverts its cells back to a younger state and starts over. Basically the Benjamin Button of the ocean — but slimier.

Scientists literally call it “the immortal jellyfish.”

Happy Jellies & Happy Lifting!

✨💛 Wonder Woman Wednesday: Angelica Mendoza💛✨

Some people walk into your life at exactly the right moment… and Angelica is one of those rare souls who feels both younger and wiser than you at the same time. Old enough to be her mom, but she’s mature enough to be a true friend — kinda weird, kinda wonderful, and absolutely perfect.

Angelica is the kind of woman who loves with her whole heart.
She loves dogs — not just in the “aww, cute puppy” way, but in the deeply intuitive, wildly talented, “I can train this dog to be its best self” way. Watching her work with animals is like watching someone speak a language the rest of us only half understand.

And kids?
She adores them.
She shows up for them.
She’s responsible, grounded, and steady in a way that makes everyone around her feel safe.

Angelica is the friend who is always there — the one who answers the phone, makes the time, remembers the details, and shows up with her whole heart. Even now that she lives all the way out in Colorado, she still finds a way to stay connected. She makes time to see us when she’s in town, and she gives me the perfect excuse to hop on a plane and visit the mountains. Honestly… win‑win.

She’s loyal.
She’s thoughtful.
She’s strong.
She’s magic in human form.

Angelica, thank you for being the kind of woman who bridges generations, distances, and life phases with ease. You are a gift — to your friends, to every kid you love on, and to every dog lucky enough to learn from you.

Happy Wonder Woman Wednesday, my friend. Keep shining exactly as you are. 💛✨

🐸 Today in 1921, a scientist discovered a frog that plays dead so dramatically it deserves an Oscar. The Hylodes japi will flop over, stick out its tongue, and commit to the bit for several minutes.

✨ Wonder Woman Wednesday: Shatera Renee ✨

Today we’re celebrating a woman whose energy is impossible to ignore and whose heart is even harder to forget. Shatera is always on her grind — if she isn’t working on becoming the strongest, healthiest version of herself, she’s out here lifting someone else up, no matter what life is throwing at her. That kind of consistency, compassion, and drive is rare, and she carries it so naturally.

Her dedication to her health is inspiring, but her devotion to her kids is the true anchor of everything she does. She shows up for them with the same fire she brings to every goal she sets for herself.

And let’s talk about her love for animals — she’s an animal lover to the absolute max, and she even turned that passion into a way to make money doing something she genuinely loves. That’s real Wonder Woman energy: turning heart into hustle.

Even though I only met her recently, I felt instantly at ease in her presence. She’s one of those people who makes you feel comfortable, welcomed, and seen from the very first conversation. She’s gorgeous inside and out, with a dazzling smile that lights up every room she walks into.

And of course… the Queen of Gym Selfies. No one — and I mean no one — captures a post‑workout glow like she does. The angles, the confidence, the sparkle… unmatched.

I’m going to miss seeing her now that she’s moved to Florida, but let’s be honest — now I have the perfect excuse to hop on a plane and visit the Sunshine State. 🌴💛

Here’s to you, Shatera — a woman who grinds, glows, gives, and inspires. Happy Wonder Woman Wednesday. 💛✨

✨ Wonder Woman Wednesday: Taylor Kelly Hughes ✨

Today’s spotlight shines on a woman whose heart is big enough to hold an entire kingdom of creatures, a hospital full of patients, and a whole lot of love for the people lucky enough to know her — Taylor Hughes.

I first met Taylor when she was fostering little Nyomi, pouring every ounce of love into giving that tiny pup the safest, sweetest start. She wasn’t just looking for a home — she was looking for the right home. Somehow, Brett and I became the chosen ones, and the rest is history. I have truly never met someone who loves animals the way Taylor does. And when I say animals, I mean ALL animals. Guinea pigs, dogs, rats, chickens… if it breathes, squeaks, clucks, or wiggles, Taylor has loved it.

Phase two of knowing Taylor? Working together as RNs. What a wild ride that was. She was the nurse who could zip around the unit like a superhero, deliver babies with ease, mentor new nurses without breaking stride, and still crack a joke that left you laughing in the middle of chaos. She’s the kind of nurse you want in every room — skilled, steady, and full of heart.

Then came phase three — the sweetest one yet. Taylor had her first baby… on my birthday. Tell me that wasn’t meant to be.

When she’s not being an incredible mom (to humans and the entire animal kingdom), she’s rocking life as a wife extraordinairre, soaking up the beach, and lighting up every space with her dazzling smile and razor‑sharp humor. Sarcasm doesn’t stand a chance against her.

Taylor, keep being exactly who you are. The world is better, brighter, and infinitely more fun because you’re in it. You are truly one of a kind — a Wonder Woman in every way. 💛

🐐 Fun Fa-a-a-a-act for today - Goats have accents!!! Goats raised together develop their own vocal “dialects,” and when they join a new herd, their bleats slowly shift to match the group — like tiny, chaotic, four‑legged linguists.

✨💛 Wonder Woman Wednesday: Jen Hayward 💛✨

Today we celebrate the unstoppable, unforgettable Jen Hayward — a woman whose presence has shaped so many lives, mine included.

I met Jen way back in the day when she was my CrossFit Coach extraordinaire, and if you’ve ever been coached by Jen, you know: she had a way of making you believe in yourself even when the workout looked like it was designed by a villain. Her coaching was equal parts technical mastery and emotional intelligence. She could cue a movement with surgical precision, then turn around and make you laugh right when you needed it most.

But what set her apart was how deeply she paid attention. She didn’t just coach athletes — she coached people. She noticed what made each of us tick, what we found funny, what we feared, what we loved. She made every single person feel seen, capable, and valued.

And while she poured her heart into helping others — whether in the gym or in the classroom, where she encouraged little ones to be the best versions of themselves — there is one thing that surpasses even her passion for lifting others up:
her love for her family.

Her love for her mom always put a smile in my heart, especially those surprise visits we all got to witness through her eyes. And her love for her son, her daughter, and her husband? It’s the kind of love that radiates — steady, fierce, and immeasurable.

Now, between us… her love of Peppermint Stick ice cream might surpass everything, but we don’t need to let the whole world in on that secret. Just a quiet nod between friends.

Even though she now lives in her favorite part of the country, she has always remained a bright star in my universe — constant, warm, and shining just as boldly from afar.

Here’s to Jen — a woman of strength, heart, humor, and devotion.
Happy Wonder Woman Wednesday, my friend. 💛✨
