Welcome!!! This episode I will share some insight into what I hear as a fitness instructor. In the feature "overheard in class" I aim to help take some of the crazy out of your food/fitness routines as I address ways to change your mindset.  Also please note: I use the word "bitch" as a term of endearment k? 

The Do's & Don'ts of vacation eating & fitness

This show will serve the busy woman who feels overwhelmed by wanting to do ALL the things...you know - crush it a work AND at home, eat well while of course exercising regularly, look/feel her best in her jeans while having that post-facial glow 24/7. Let's not forget about having a family and a social life. With humor, sarcasm, and real talk we will work on mindset shifts, action steps, plus build confidence because a confident woman is unstoppable. 

My goal with the Resting Bliss Face podcast is to cut through the bs and make life a little easier. Let's go from overwhelmed to focused and motivated. Through solo shows and interviews I will tackle all the topics above and so much more! I will have interviews with some of the smartest people I know (or just fun people I want to hang out with) who have a unique perspective and seem to make their expertise look easy.  I've got the woo-woo covered with mindset & manifesting plus tangible steps all served with plenty of humor because not taking myslelf too seriously is top of my list! 

You can tune in now and thanks so much for listening!

Meagan dives into four tips she sticks by each holiday season that can be incorporated into your life.

Learn key strategies to put your health first and not let holiday stress weigh you down.    Quotes • “The amount of adipose tissue, fat cells, on your body does not necessarily mean healthy or unhealthy.” (2:07-2:15) • “My version of healthy is to not be sick. My version of healthy is to be energized and not stressed. It means having some time to find joy. That’s what healthy is to me.” (2:50-3:03)  • “The real reason I exercise, specifically during this time, is because I believe movement is medicine.” (4:52-4:57) • “Think about your body as your greatest gift. One that you would treat with love and respect. How would you treat yourself if your body was truly a gift? What would you choose to do?” (5:43-5:53) • “Just because you can chew something, swallow it, and poop it out, doesn’t make it real food.” (9:19-9:26) • “I’m not available for stress, panic, or pressure.” (16:09-16:12)   Links Connect with Meagan!  Website | meaganfitzgerald.com/allthethings  Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/megfitz.gerald/ 

Staying Healthy During The Holidays

For the full show notes and access to resources mentioned in this episode visit www.meaganfitzgerald.com/podcast/episode93 I'm super excited to share Episode 93 with you. Between managing my kids' activities and juggling my own commitments, I found a moment to sit down and really dive into the topic of goals. And let me tell you, it's not just your typical New Year resolution chat. I've got some fresh, insightful perspectives on goals and what they really mean for us.   Topics Covered:   Introduction to Goals: I kicked off the episode discussing the importance of goals, not just at the beginning of the year but all year round.   Rejecting 'New Year, New You'   The True Value of Goals: How goals are essential for providing focus and direction, rather than just being endpoints.   Becoming Through Goals: A key theme was how the journey to achieving a goal is often more valuable than the goal itself.   Marathon Running Example: I used the example of training for a marathon to illustrate personal growth and change that occur when pursuing a challenging goal.   My approach to weight loss and financial goals.    Contrast in Approaches: I contrasted positive, love-led goal pursuit with negative, self-deprecating approaches and their respective outcomes.   The Importance of Intention: The episode highlighted how the intention behind setting a goal significantly influences the journey and the outcome.     Links/Resources Mentioned:   The Set Studio NBPT: https://www.thesetstudionbpt.com/   Collagen/CBD: https://meaganfitzgerald.greencompassglobal.com    1:1 Coaching Info: https://meagan-fitzgerald.mykajabi.com/1-1-coaching    The Set: https://meaganfitzgerald.arketa.fit    Abundant Biz: https://meagan-fitzgerald.mykajabi.com/abundant-biz     Connect with Meagan:   Website: https://meaganfitzgerald.com/   Instagram: @megfitz.gerald  

Why setting a goal is actually important

Oh boy, do I have some news for you! In the midst of my usual mom duties – dropping one kid at yoga, another at dance class, and managing the third – I realized I had to pause and share this monumental update with you all. It's a huge leap, one that has me equally terrified and exhilarated. I'm absolutely thrilled to announce that I am opening my own fitness studio! This is by far one of the biggest and most exciting announcements of my career. The studio, located in a picturesque downtown area with water views, is going to be a sanctuary for fitness and wellness. It's not just a fitness studio; it's a dream coming to life, a space that embodies my vision and passion for helping others through physical and mental well-being.  Topics Covered:   Major Announcement: I'm opening my own fitness studio! It's a huge step in my career, and I'm both nervous and thrilled.   My vision is to create a warm, cozy, and uplifting environment where everyone feels elevated and at peace.   Diverse Fitness Options: We’ll offer a variety of classes including Pilates, barre, barless barre, sculpt, and yoga.   The studio's ethos is all about welcoming and celebrating all body types, shapes, sizes, and colors.   I reflect on my journey from teaching fitness seven days a week to scaling down post-pandemic, and now, embarking on this new adventure.   This move was inspired by a desire to create a space that aligns with my personal vision and vibe, different from what I've experienced before.   Self Concept Shift: This new venture is reshaping my self-concept – from a life coach and fitness instructor to now a studio owner.   Online Platform and Coaching Business My online platform and coaching business will continue alongside the studio, so no worries there!
