Did you know that the BEST three-point shooters in the NBA expect to miss 60% of the time?! This stat BLEW my mind! Imagine, being the BEST at what you do KNOWING you will miss more than HALF of the time (and get paid millions for it!) Well, my friends, this is a perspective that […]

Like me, you probably have many examples of struggles in your life, ranging from trying to conquer the choices of others to trying to conquer a number on the scale.  And when you can accept that you no longer need to conquer them (or in my case, just accept that you can't accept them) you […]

I was mindlessly scrolling through videos this morning… As much as I tend to waste time doing this, sometimes (like this morning), I land on a gem. It was a snippet from a talk by Jesse Itzler, who was talking about how he got started. He shares many great stories, but here's what struck me: […]

Oh friends, if we could only break this pattern of thinking… If we could only stop looking at food as “good” or “bad” and as exercise as a way to “burn off” our sins. It doesn't have to be this way.  We have been led to this way of thinking. And that means, there are […]
