Finding Wellness
The wellness space is cluttered with gurus who swear they have the best solution but the truth is only YOU know what works best for you and your body, mind and spirit. We've been conditioned to think of health as thinness or the absence of illness. But we need to start thinking more holistically beyond just what our body looks and feels like. My goal is to help you look at your whole life: your career, your spirituality, your mental health, your environement, etc. to see how you can support your overall health and wellbeing. Get curious, listen to your body, and start making small shifts today that will have a big impact tomorrow! You are worth the time, money, energy and effort required to live a full, complete, happy and healthy life!
Episodes
Brain fog, fatigue, weight gain, weight loss resistance, irregular or painful periods, depression, anxiety, infertility, all point to some sort of hormone imbalance. So the short answer is YES, your hormones are likely to blame for your symptoms. But in this tough love episode, I challenge you to take control and do something about it.

"Listen to your body"...that's such common advice especially when it comes to exercise. But sometimes you really do have to put on your "big girl pants" and do the damn thing. Today we're talking about the nuance of this advice and when you might actually have to rely on discipline to do the thing you know is ACTUALLY better for you.

I can't believe I freaking qualified for the DEKA World Championship on TWO different teams! I'll be competing in the DEKA Strong teams event with my daughter and with another trainer and good friend of mine.
Today I'm sharing some behind the scenes of what this means for me and re-settting my goals and expectations (again). Balancing the desire to do well with the reality that I am a mom who wor...
Do you have excuses or do you have legitamate obstacles you need to learn how to navigate? You're not lazy. You're just a real life adult with real life responsibilities that you might need to learn how to work around. The "no excuse" mindset might be doing you more harm than good. Instead, learn how to identify and navigate your obstacles so they don't become chronic excuses.

Here's a hot take for you as we head into the holiday season...That healthy swap recipe you found online is never going to scratch the itch. I mean it's never going to ACTUALLY replace the REAL thing. Don't fall into the trap of having a "healthy swap" and then continuing to overindulge on something else because you weren't actually satisfied. Also, is that high protien thing actually high i...
If losing weight is important to you, it's important to me too. But if losing weight is ALL that's important to you, you're missing the point and you're likely making your journey more difficult than it needs to be. In today's episode, Megan shares what happens when you take the focus OFF of the scale and focus on other areas of health and longevity.

So many of us create goals so we have something to go after. However, the goals we set are not always realistic and reasonable so we miss them completely. Next we get frustrated with our progress, or lack of progress, and we make an emotional decision as a result. This often leads to more unrealistic goals and some self-sabotage. In this episode, Megan shares about a goal she recently missed and what she did when she fou...
It's back to school season and that can only mean one thing...Next thing you know, we'll be ringing in the new year. I know it feels SO FAR away right now but so many of us tend to let our health slide these last few months of the year and next thing you know we're having to start all over again in the new year. NOT THIS YEAR! Here's what I'm doing to avoid that trap.

In today's episode I talk about how to navigate your wellness goals when life comes at you fast. It's OK to take a few steps back and adjust your expectations of yourself sometimes. In fact, I would argue that doing this instead of either giving up entirely or trying to "push through" will set you up to get "back on track" quicker in the long run. I also share about a recent experience I had...

Hey there and Happy New Year! It's so good to be back chatting with you again!
It's that time of year where we're all hearing those "new year, new me" messages and everyone and their mom is determined to lose weight or "get back on track". And while there's nothing wrong with having a weight loss goal, there is much more to the picture than what your scale might show.
This week's episode is short and sweet but I'm giving a quick update about my journey coming off of my depression medicine. Medicine will continue to be a tool in my toolbox that I know I can lean on when/if needed. But for now, I'm medicine free and sharing the main lesson I've learned so far.

We live in an Amazon Prime, instant feedback driven world and the same is true for our health. We might give something a try for a few days or even a few weeks and when we don't see immediate results, we QUIT! OR we try to do ALL the things and change our whole life in one day and because we don't have the sustainable habits to fall back on, when shit hits the fan, guess what? Yup. We quit. We find ourselves co...
If you're a regular listener of the show, you know I have some pretty strong feelings about "summer shred" programs or other similar challenges that gyms will put on. So why did I decide to do the summer shred challenge at my gym?
