One of the best things about Aquafitmom? 💧

The water supports your body, stabilizes your joints, and absorbs impact—so you can move with confidence.

That means you can safely add in movements like jumps and plyometrics while reducing the stress and risk that usually comes with high-impact exercise.

This is a huge bonus for postpartum women who are ready to progress their workouts—giving you a way to rebuild strength, power, and confidence without overloading your recovering body.

Strong, powerful movement… with way more joint-friendly support. 🙌 . Head to https://fitmom.punchpass.com/catalogs/purchase/pass/258059?check=1777306156 to register

Here is a truth bomb.
The last… hmmm… we will say 8 years on my body have been hard. That, combined with a few years of back-to-back loss, almost buried me.
Just because someone is a coach does not mean there aren’t things and life events that can become way too hard.
In 2017, I was diagnosed with a serious spine condition that had already stopped me from running. I also suffered a severe SI joint injury. How I trained had to change. I hated it.
As someone who had been a competitive gymnast and fitness competitor, having to accept slowing down was VERY hard on my mental health. Add in back-to-back losses and my eldest son being in crisis, and it was more than I could handle all at once.
I went into survival mode.
I continued to work because that is what self-employed people do. Through my advocacy work for parents with children in crisis, I know people who have lost children and had to return to work within two weeks. You keep going or your lose everything but that also prolongs healing .
As someone with a background not only in coaching and fitness, but also in human services counselling, I recognize that people do, in fact, have thresholds.
Being in constant physical and emotional pain, I gained a whopping 50 pounds. True story.
It has taken me years — and a lot of healing through grief and loss — to finally get to a place where I could truly begin recovering and rebuilding.
I am happy to report I am well on my way. ❤️ Lucky for me I know exactly what to do .
If you have been in crisis and are ready to get back on track, I am your biggest cheerleader and I am here to remind you:�SLOW AND STEADY wins the race. Rest matters . Training your brain not just your body is essential for long term consistency. Life WILL happen.
That is tough for many Type A people.
Today I was too busy to get to the gym, so I did a workout at home between clients.
PS: A rolling desk chair is actually a great tool for workouts at home or even at work. 😂
Breaking out of ALL-OR-NOTHING thinking is crucial for longevity.
As my grandfather used to say:�“DO WHAT YOU CAN AND CAN WHAT YOU CAN’T.”
