When we first left Chicago in October 2022, we first headed out to Lake Havasu for a month.
We did so much hiking that month.
It was literally a 6-minute drive from where we were staying.
We went hiking every weekend. I went a few times by myself. It was exactly what we...
This week, we also started adding in evening walks on the beach.
I know, I know. Whose life is this?!
Several months ago, I added in an evening walk if I didn't hit my step goal of 8000. Sometimes the walk was 5 minutes and sometimes 30. But oftentimes, I struggled to make it happen.
So what's...
I struggle to get to the gym in the evening because there's no constant trigger like in the morning.
In the morning, the trigger is waking up and the action is working out.
In the evening, my work day ends at different times and in different ways... it's not always the same.

Just got this email from a client, and I'm just so happy.

It felt great to wakeup and workout again.
It felt great to drink a green smoothie in the...
Over the last few days, I've been writing about how my week was rough because of poor sleep ruining my mornings, falling off track, and then recommitting to taking a small action to get back on track.
As I look back on the last week, I know another reason things fell apart...
Ah! After a shitty week, I got finally got some decent sleep and had a great run.

It doesn't have to be a Whole30 or...
I've had a rough week with sleep which impacted the rest of my day. I found myself falling into some not-so-helpful thoughts about myself.
And then I remembered a tool that has helped me and I teach my clients: The 3Rs.
R1 - Remind yourself you're an imperfect human...
I just started a new medication for my knee pain, and I have some temporary relief...
I am super hopeful this will continue. It's always nerve-racking to think something might get better because I've been disappointed so many times!
