Raise your hand if you feel guilty purging your closet? How about negative self talk saying "oh I should fit into these" or "I just need to work harder then these will fit soon". You DESERVE to dress your body in clothes that bring you joy this very moment.

In today's episode I share some mindset shifts that can help YOU make the move - to purge your closet, to share with someone else, and to create space to shop your closet so you can feel confident each time you get dressed. 

I was on the diet roller coaster starting at age 14. Eliminating food groups was how it all started --- and I didn't know how to stop. I found that I was 'proud' and a 'good person' if I stayed the course and followed the rules. I was struggling so hard inside at times. I felt left out. I remember having a steak with a candle in it while everyone else had birthday cake. How depressing. 

In today's episode I am sharing how I finally got of the diet roller coaster and found the land of maintenance. Where I am easily able to maintain my weight loss, move my body mindfully, allow myself grace and love - all while enjoying the foods I love the most and the fitness that brings my most joy.

If you are struggling b/c you are constantly restricting - give this episode a listen. 

I recently got a question in Instagram DM's asking - 

"does tracking like this diminish your quality of life...and 

how that can be demoralizing to your health/fitness journey

when results aren't witnessed."

At first I felt personally attacked! You don't know me! You don't 

know my story...but then I calmed down, and said "wow...she DOESN'T know 

me, my story OR how I coach inside of LWJ". 

I created this episode to give you a behind the scenes of how and why I coach

the way that I do. Yes there is some clients who track *hint it is NOT for everyone*

and there are some who don't and we focus on habits. Overall I am sharing

what I have found to be helpful for so many clients over the years which often 

is a blend of the two. If you were ever curious what REALLY goes on behind

the curtain of personal, customized coaching with me this episode sheds some

light!

I turn 42 next week - is it really fair for me to wish I had my 38 year old body? If you were my BFF sitting

across from me at lunch would you say "You know, I wish you looked like your 38 year old self...remember her? 

She was so jacked and lean!" Eff. That. Noise. 

But why do you say this to yourself?

In today's episode I share what my birthday gift to myself is

for this next trip around the sun...and it isn't diamonds.
