  • 27. Processing My Feelings About the Dancing With the Stars Results | Part 2

    Alright, y’all… It's time to talk about the results from Dancing with the Stars. If you don’t know already, I did not place in the competition. Even if you’ve never participated in a big competition like this, chances are you’ve dealt with the feelings I’ve been dealing with as I’ve processed this: disappointment, anger, sadness, etc. In this episode, I’m sharing how I’ve been processing these feelings and my big takeaways from it all. Plus, a recap of the fun weekend that followed with some of my most favorite people.

    Check out Part 1 of my DWTS journey here!

    Some key takeaways from this episode include:

    • There’s nothing like having a hype girl in your ear cheering you on. You stand taller, walk with confidence, and just feel so good! I hope I’m that person for y’all, and it means the world to have my family, friends, and clams be those people for me!
    • Try not to be a recluse when you’re feeling sad. It might be your first instinct to isolate yourself, but let a trusted loved one just sit next to you and be a source of comfort.
    • When I’m grappling with feeling super bummed about the results of something, I really try to hold onto the best parts of an experience overall. How I felt on the stage while dancing, the friendship I built with my dance partner, and the money we raised for a great cause are all keeping me rooted to the positive.

      • 26. An Emotional Recap of My Dancing With the Stars Journey | Part 1

        My DWTS experience has come to an end, and I’m sharing all the details of my journey to the stage. I have so much I want to say, so this will be a two parter! In this episode, I’m sharing the behind-the-scenes of how this experience helped me grow as a performer, what it was like to be on stage, and my CT scan prevention plan for my costume (if you know, you know). In part 2, I’ll be sharing my thoughts on the results and a recap of my weekend with friends and family!

        Some key takeaways from this episode include:

        • Give your body rest when it needs it. I took this past Friday off to recover from being sick. It’s so important to recognize when you need a break and take that time for yourself so you can get back to it soon!
        • You should feel 100% comfortable in what you’re wearing! You won’t go as hard as you can in your workout if you’re thinking about how your outfit looks or how it fits the whole time. Wear what makes you feel amazing!
        • If you’ve given your all to something, that’s all that really matters. Of course, we love winning too, but you should be proud of the effort you put into it and how the experience helped you grow.

            One of my biggest superpowers is making connections with people around me. From strangers I meet at the airport to the beautiful Clams I’ve met all over the world, I love getting to know people and finding the ways we can relate to each other. This skill has brought so much richness and fun to my life, and in this episode I’m sharing exactly how I do it!

            Some key takeaways from this episode include:

            • February is the time to commit to changing small, everyday habits that are going to make a HUGE difference in your life three months from now! What will you commit to starting this month?
            • If you want to connect with someone new, start by asking them questions. Genuinely get to know them and you will inevitably find something you both have in common.
            • It’s also so important to deepen our relationships with the people already in our lives! You might think you know everything there is to know, but it wouldn’t hurt to ask more questions and listen intently to what they have to say.

                Embrace the fact that you know a little bit about a lot of things. Are you an expert at any of them? Maybe, or maybe not. BUT you are pretty damn good at a lot of them. Don’t let imposter syndrome stop you from getting better at the things you want out of life. If you need some motivation to keep going, especially at this time of year, tune in as I use my best sass and smooth podcast voice to pump you up to keep going.

                In this episode you’ll learn…

                • That there is only one YOU! You bring uniqueness to this world. You won’t be everyone’s cup of tea and that is ok. There is a place for everyone to grow their skills and talents. Be who you are and be proud of it.
                • Clams keep me going! Every time I get a message about how you added burpees to your routine, a heavier weight, or tried a new move, it keeps me motivated to keep showing up and create more kick-ass workouts.
                • Self-care routines are essential. My life is about to get crazy with lots of travel, and while I love to travel, I can tell I feel a bit unsettled. This is when I stick with my self-care routines. They ground me, keep me healthy, and reduce my stress. If your life is feeling crazy like mine, stick with those routines, including your daily BBT workout.

                    No offense to men, but women are better at friendship. Don’t believe me? It’s true. Women are better at communication, helping each other out and having heart to heart conversations. Inspired by an interview with Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, Sally Fields and Rita Moreno, who star in the new film 80 for Brady, I am diving into the topic of friendship and fellowship. As they say, friends are the family members you get to choose. And I choose you clams!

                    • 3 ways to be a better friend:

                      • Support your friends. Build them up. We all need this from time to time. As we enter the doldrums of winter we might need this more than ever, so put a little sunshine in someone’s life.
                      • Stay in touch. Let your friends know what’s going on in your life, even the mundane moments. It is not as hard as you think but it is so goddamn important. Your homework is to reach out to your friends today.
                      • Be less sensitive. Don’t take life so seriously. Laugh. Do it really loud. Do it again! We need this more than we think.

                          When saddled with a decision, we can choose to stay the course or we can give ourselves an excuse to stray from our path of good health. Do not negotiate with yourself. When you negotiate with yourself, you are going to negotiate with everything else in your life. Feeling uncomfortable aka sticking to your goals is good for you. I didn’t say it was easy though. If you find yourself distracted at this time of year, looking for excuses to stray from your intentions, then sit up and lean in as I give you a pep talk on how to stay the course and take care of yourself.

                          3 key takeaways from this episode:

                          • Be wary of distractions. Especially these days, we are overflowing with options that it is easy to get lost in it all. All those distractions can become an easy excuse to stray from your intentions.
                          • If you’re negotiating with yourself and you let that little voice win, it is ok. Don’t beat yourself up, but don’t let it happen again and again. Know that next time you will get closer to your goal. Get back on the path.
                          • Sometimes we negotiate with ourselves when we are afraid of change. Change is scary but necessary for improvement. Do something a little different and watch the change that happens. Start small. These small changes accumulate over time to something magical.

We are talking about the Post-Holiday Come Down, similar to the Monday gloomies but 10x more intense. If you are finding yourself on the struggle bus this 2nd week of January, you are not alone.

                              3 things to remember when you hit the Post-Holiday Come Down:

                              • The anxiety you are feeling is temporary. All of the feelings that you have that are weighing in on you are normal and will pass.
                              • Everyone has a down day. Use the magic of movement to change how you feel and push through it. Keep your body moving. Get some fresh air. Do a BBT clam workout … just saying.
                              • Keep those post-holiday goals short and attainable. Build up your confidence and get a win right away!

                                  3 Things to consider for your new year goals:

                                  • If your goal is better muscle definition make sure you are really comfortable with the exercise first before adding heavier weights. Even adding just two more pounds can make a big difference. It's better to work on this slowly and thoroughly instead of setting yourself back with an injury.
                                  • If your goal is to mend a relationship, then keep working at it. Often when you are going through a rough patch with someone, it might be because of something you are going through. Take a step back and examine what might be going on with you first. Dig deep into those feelings and see where they might be affecting other parts of your life. Learning to recognize and control our emotions is a skill we need to continually work at.
                                  • Remember to practice good health habits. Drink more water, go for a 20 minute walk each day, get more sleep. You can do these things without spending any money and they will ultimately make you better.

                                      It's no secret y’all that I love to workout and inspire others to improve their lives through fitness. For almost 3 years I have created a brand new workout every morning without repeat. How and why does this happen you ask? Well, if you are a die-hard clam or even a new clam, then buckle up as this episode is for you. Tune in as I share the steps, thoughts and attitude I put into creating each workout of BodyByTrainor, including my thoughts on night workouts, why I am a morning person and who I look to for inspiration.

                                        • BBT workouts are very intentional in targeting certain muscle groups one day and then letting them rest the next. When we target a muscle group it breaks down the muscle fibers and rebuilds them, essentially rebuilding your muscle better and stronger.
                                        • Why mornings are the best time for inspiration, brain work and body work! Create routines that you can stick to and don’t negotiate. When you negotiate, you start to talk yourself out of healthy habits.
                                        • Motivation and inspiration are key to progress, including my own. When you shout out that you’re excited for the workout on IG, it pumps me up. When you share how BBT has changed your life, it inspires me to keep putting my all into these workouts.

                                          • 18. Your Presence is the PRESENT!

                                            This is a wonderful time of year but it is also stressful, chaotic and possibly even full of grief. If you find yourself full of anxiety this week, you’re not alone. Take it all in and know that you are going to be ok. Remember to pause and take a deep breath. Maybe a few deep breaths. Tune in this week as Meghan shares tips for handling this crazy holiday week, including a reminder to move your body when your mood needs to shift and the knowledge that being present might be all you need.

                                            3 key takeaways from this episode include:

                                            • When you feel stressed about all the obligations and events, just remember it's not about what you are bringing. It's about showing up. You are special in this life. Be present and be the present for others.
                                            • It's so easy to get ahead of ourselves and feel so much anxiety about this week. When this happens go for a walk, pump yourself up with the Clam Hype playlist, do a 3 minute workout. Start moving.
                                            • Never underestimate the power of a workout, even a quick one, to shift your mood. You are only 1 workout away from a better mood.
