Beginner Mat test-out ✔️

First little milestone on the road to 600 hours, and even better getting to do this part of the program alongside my EBY barre babes.

One test-out down. A whole lot more to go!

Hormones. Autoimmune health. Spinal fusion. Chronic nerve pain. Nutrition. Mobility. Barre. Pilates. Dance. And learning how to work with my body instead of constantly fighting against it.

That’s what my mid-40s has evolved into!

There is so much noise about how we should be eating, how we should be working out, what the latest study says, what we should avoid, what we should add, and what we’re supposedly doing wrong.

Research matters. Clinical studies matter. But no study knows your body the way you do.

I believe deeply in what we put into our bodies. And I also believe in building muscle, protecting our bones, staying mobile, understanding our hormones, and creating a body that can keep doing the things we love for a very long time.

The goal isn’t to do everything perfectly. It’s to stop letting fear, overwhelm and too much information keep you from doing anything at all. Take one small step to do something good for you!

This feels vulnerable to share, but it also feels important.

Over the last few years, I’ve lost over 50 pounds... that’s me in the hot pink top.

But the number isn’t really the story.

For a long time, I hid how much weight I had gained. As a nutritionist, that carried a lot of shame. I felt like I should have had all the answers, but my body was dealing with more than willpower or calories. Hormones, thyroid, stress, and life all played a role.

What changed wasn’t one perfect plan. It was a lot of pieces slowly coming together.

Barre, Pilates, walking, weights, hormone and thyroid support, and learning how to stay consistent while working around back and nerve pain.

The physical part mattered, but the mental part was just as big. Fitness became less about punishing my body and more about coming back to myself.

And community has been such a huge piece of that. Being in rooms like this, with people simply showing up, moving, laughing, and trying their best, makes the process feel less lonely.

This journey has been physical, mental, and hormonal. It hasn’t been quick or perfect, but I feel stronger, healthier, more grounded, and finally like my body is working with me again. 💗🩰🦋

Food, stress, sleep, movement, and consistency all send signals to your body.

Some of the biggest shifts for me didn’t come from extremes. They came from getting the basics right over and over again and learning what my body needed, not what the hype was saying I needed.

• Eating enough protein and veggies instead of under-eating
• Supporting blood sugar instead of riding crashes
• Moving my body consistently in ways I could actually sustain
• Addressing thyroid and hormone health instead of ignoring it
• Reducing stress where I could and being honest about what I couldn’t control

Our bodies are given the strength to respond when we start working with it instead of against it.

That shake at the barre doesn’t mean you’re weak. It’s actually the opposite and the longer you do barre the more you’ll envy the shake.

It’s your muscles being pushed to a level where strength happens. Fatigue, recruitment, your body adapting in real time.

Especially in midlife, this is exactly what you want.

We’re naturally losing muscle, stability, and bone density, and barre (also Pilates) goes straight after all of it without beating up your joints.

So if you’re shaking DON’T back off right away.
Stay in it a little longer. Breathe.

That’s where strength is actually being built. You are stronger than you realize!

My daughter’s wedding 🤍

These photos mean more to me than I expected.
Not because everything was perfect… but because I actually felt like myself. Present. Calm. Happy.

Not thinking about my body, not overthinking anything—just there for her.

The last decade has been a lot of change, and I didn’t always feel this way. So being able to show up like this, in a moment like this, meant everything.

Just really proud of her… and really grateful for this day.
