Oh to be a dog and just be happy in a mud puddle...

What are you currently thinking there’s no way you could do that thing? However, there’s a part of you that wants to do that thing

What’s holding you back? Time? Money? Kids? Friends? Confidence? Poor Self Esteem?

I believe that our mental, emotional, physical and spiritual health are the cornerstones to living the BIGGEST life God has planned for us.

Our fear, shame, regret, guilt of the past may be the exact things that strengthen you for the journey of your dreams…AND

Fear, Shame, Guilt, Self loathing, belong on the cross

all belong on the cross

Our inside and outside need TO GO TOGETHER!

Shift Your PerSPECtive

Find one spec that you CAN do and start there

You CAN do that thing!

Why did I do it?

Because as an entrepreneur I need to hold myself to the higher standard I expect of any of my clients. I would be a hypocrite if I asked someone to give up cheat meals or alcohol if I wasn’t willing to do it for myself.

I wanted to see how much stronger I could get, and if I could lose a few inches and a couple pounds

Menopause is so often used as the excuse for not really wanting to do the work.I wanted you to know I’m willing to do the work right there beside you.

The number of things that tried to keep me from getting this done today was astounding?

Do you use the circumstance as justification for your poor choices? Food or otherwise?
