Hello Uncomfy FAM!

Today we are switching it up and I am doing a solo episode for fun, and before we dive in I want to remind you that I will be sending out a customized T-shirt to a review that is left on Apple podcasts! So if you haven’t left a review yet get on it, my friend.

This episode is about priorities and checking ourselves when we compare priorities among one another. But the reality of life is we all are in different phases of our lives some of us are single, being more selfish while others are giving all they have to their families. Neither of these is more right or more productive than the other. Every season brings new priorities and that is okay, but it is important to make sure they align with who you want to be.

Important moments to tune in for:

(2:40) Understanding the different places we are in life and what that means for our priorities.

(5:10) Are your priorities mirroring your schedule?

(7:21) Why you should not judge yourself because your priorities are different than someone else.

Your life is in YOUR hands, so get up and go after your dreams!

Today we are talking health, nutrition, and fitness habits. As well as my own journey to where I am now. I am not saying my way is the only way to find a balance between nutrition and fitness, but I wanted to share my story and lessons I have learned to help you along your own journey. 

If there is one thing I have learned in this life is that things are always shifting, I am always learning and growing and sometimes making not-so-great decisions. BUT every single one of those decisions and phases of discomfort truly brought me so much knowledge that I use every single day. I hope that you are able to listen to this episode and have it inspire you to keep moving forward with all of your goals because that is how you make them happen. Not by standing still paralyzed by shame, or fear, or guilt, or anything else. You get to where you want to be by never giving up, no matter how hard it feels my friend. 

I believe in you!

Powerful moments to tune in for: 

(3:30) Review of the week.

(4:30) My health and fitness at the beginning with gymnastics.

(15:35) How I ended up binge eating and completely reversing my habit.

(20:12) My shift to bodybuilding and why it was very negative but taught me valuable lessons.

(33:20) How to shift from a lifestyle you don’t want with food to one that actually works for you.

Today’s episode is going to be real, real, you guys. I am about to get the most uncomfy because I want you to know that we are all human. We are all struggling with, truth, fully very similar issues and concerns. And you are not alone, and I know that looking at social media can make us feel very alone, but you are not.

So I want to share something that I am going through right now, and truthfully, it is tough to share this with you because so many people look up to me, and if I were to make it known that I am not ok, people would lose respect for me. But I realized that I need to share this, I need to show up so that you and anyone else listening and struggling knows it is okay to not be okay. 

The most successful people in the world are not always at the peak of their lives, they often struggle, cry, break down and grieve. They are only human, just like you and me, they feel all the feels. So I hope this episode really helps someone out there today, and if you feel this resonate with you please share it with a friend, DM me your experience. Let's show up for one another in those valleys, not just at the peaks. Shall we?

- Love ya friend.

Powerful Moments to tune in for:

(2:15) Moving through the peaks and valleys of life and learning to enjoy them.

(3:56) My uncomfy feelings right now and what I am doing through this.

(7:15) Focusing inward in the moments you feel lost in life. Why do we need to escape when the answer is inside.

(12:15) It is time to do the work and knows you are not alone my friend.

Your life is in YOUR hands, so get up and go after your dreams!

Last week a friend of mine texted me last week asking how I felt about Hawaii, like going to Hawaii in the next 48 hours. And you know what? I sent it! I came out to Hawaii and leaned into my spontaneous side!

How often do you talk about taking spontaneous trips but then turn it down as soon as an opportunity presents itself?

So this episode is all about being a yes person, it is about being a person who leans into their dreams because you know what happens when you make decisions with you as the priority? When you lean into the uncertainty of what you want, you are giving others around you the permission to do the same.

Time Stamps:

(1:20) How I ended up in Hawaii within 48 hours of the opportunity presenting itself.

(3:29) Why having too much freedom was a problem in my life.

(5:20) What is something you haven’t allowed yourself to accept?

(7:15) Why you should be doing what your heart desires, follow your gut and how you have been conditioned to not do it.

(13:16) You can’t plan every little thing in your life.
