Fit to be Trained

💙This year I’m not chasing more.
I’m choosing better.

Better movement.
Better recovery.
Better understanding of the body we’re actually living in now.

After 40 years in fitness, I don’t believe in punishment workouts.
I believe in smart training that respects your age, joints, and nervous system.

Strong. Calm. Sustainable.
That’s the new standard.

I sat down with Nancy McMenamin Adam, a friend from junior high who I always liked, always respected, and somehow we both managed to grow up with careers in the wellness space. 💛

We’ve both stayed rooted in health and wellness over the years (her in massage therapy and health coaching), and once we started talking… it was game over. I could’ve went on all day!

We laughed, we went deep, we swapped stories 😄🎙️ (so worth it). Conversations like this are the reason I love podcasting.
If you care about health, growth, real-life wisdom, and reconnecting stories that feel familiar in the best way, this one’s for you.

I’m totally independent and capable but I get SO overwhelmed sometimes…especially on the weekends! Weekends are a time to rest, but sometimes I feel pressure to get “so much” done and then when I don’t, I feel less than… I am learning to give myself GRACE and realize that some of the expectations I put on myself are impossible!🤦‍♀️
Showing up and doing my best are what matters! And it’s enough! 🙌🙏
