All my love, all my life

I’ll miss the magic of these good old days. Exactly a month ago I chose to STOP. To stop trying to “fix” everything out of my control and to stop worrying about what people thought and felt comfortable with my own skin. Once I chose to stop trying so hard to impress people, life felt lighter. Those things that used to overwhelm me, became things I was GRATEFUL I got to do. I began celebrating everyday MIRACLES. What I realized is that they are EVERYWHERE. Our miracle today was getting to run wild and free @thehappylabdfw. These precious smiles bring tears to my eyes knowing that there was a time where I couldn’t really see them.

Mama (sister, & friend), I know life is hard. I get it. I really do. It’s so easy for those thoughts to creep in and steal your happiness, my challenge for you is this— stop trying to be perfect because you already are. Just as you are. Go chase happiness & miracles, I promise you’ll find them. •

BABES SUPPORT BABES✨ when people ask me “why @barmethodsouthlake?” Here’s my why: community. All the women support each other inside and outside of the studio. We pray over our families, talk about the real, hard and amazing things we are going through. Today I walked into @barmethodsouthlake because I was feeling overwhelmed and knew I needed an hour to myself to move my body and clear my mind. Out of no where, SNOW fell out of the sky. (I have been telling JHC all month how badly I wanted to see snow this year) I walked out of class and ran into these incredible women. I needed their love and light today. When you take a moment to pause, you’re able to see all the miracles happening around you. God is so good 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻I hope y’all are having an incredible Saturday! We went from 75 degrees yesterday, to tornadoes last night, to snowing this morning—That’s Texas winter for ya 😉

“You will never stop fighting for me
When I can't fight for myself
Every word is a promise You keep
Cause You love me like nobody else
You stand up for me
In the darkest night
When my faith is weak
You're still by my side
You will never stop fighting for me”
Thank you God for giving me everything I’d ever hoped and prayed for. Thank you for fighting for me to get out of the fog so I could see that myself. I’m so grateful for my family, they allow me to share the imperfect parts of our lives to help others. I’m so thankful for each of you for being here and loving on our sweet family. It’s hard to articulate, but I know this is my calling. I don’t share these things for praise, I share them because I’m fighting for you too. Whether you’re in a dark place or not, we are all struggling with life and I want you to know that I’m here. I see you, and I love you ✨ •

My friend/coach @annesnowlifestyle asked me last night if I wanted to do another round of Faster Way To Fat Loss. Short answer: yes. Long Answer was that I knew I lacked integrity the first round. This summer my life was falling apart. I mean that in the least dramatic way possible, but my marriage was failing, my health was struggling (my doctors had me on 3 pain killers, 3 ibs medications, and 2 adderall daily), and my children were going through something that I had no idea on how to help them. Trying to fix everything out of my control wasn’t working. So I began fixing the things I could control, like my weight. I began restricting more and more. People started to notice the weight-loss, and would praise me. At a time where I felt like a horrible wife and mom, it was nice to be praised for something, anything. It’s hard to explain because I have worked SO dang hard at working out and eating better foods, but there’s also a part of me that knows some of my weight-loss was from starvation. I didn’t plan on sharing this EVER, but I realized that even though I know I’ll let some people down by this post—I’ll now be able to truly and authentically share about finding the healthiest and strongest version of myself. It’s been months since I’ve taken most of my medication, but exactly one month since I’ve taken any. I’m truly grateful for this lesson and this platform. Just like it took time to heal my marriage, my body, and learn how to be a better mom for my kiddos... I know it will take time to restore integrity with you. I’m embarrassed, but mostly I’m deeply and truly sorry. I’m sorry if my journey ever made you second guess yours. There are many things I’d do differently if I could, but I’m working hard on doing them now. Finding a happiness and peace within myself has been invaluable. Finding the strength to share things I never thought that I would has shown me just how much I’ve healed. I’m grateful for each and every one of you. I hope you have a great day💖

Happy 3rd birthday @barmethodsouthlake! I can’t believe it was three years ago when I walked across the parking lot to meet our new “neighbors” @erinmpeabody and @nicolebulcher. I didn’t realize at the time that I was walking into my home away from home. I heard @nicolebulcher say this morning “3 years ago she couldn’t # have imagined that this would be possible”. The truth is, I could. From day one, they have built a community beyond working out. They truly care and connect with everyone that walks through their doors and it shows. It shows through them, it shows through their instructors and employees, and it shows through the clients. You can feel a sense of love and belonging when you’re there. Nicole and Erin, I’m so proud of you, not only for the place that you’ve built, but for the incredible women you are. I hope you took some time to reflect today on how far you’ve come. I’m constantly inspired by you 💖💖💖💖 thank you for allowing my to find new strengths in myself, and to help inspire others to do the same.
