Strong As A Mother

👖Same jeans. Same girl. Different look.

People tend to have that “maybe one day” pile, where the clothes don’t fit right now, but you hope that one day they will.

And that pile is usually made up of clothing that you want to shrink to fit into. But, I’d rather fill them out instead.

Don’t stress about trying to fit into them again, and be happy to fill them out with strength, confidence, and curves.

The glow-up isn’t in getting smaller… it’s in getting stronger.

Ladies, don’t wait for the clothes to fit. Build the body that will fill them out and make you feel good when you do! 💪🖤

✨ Patience ✨

July 7, 2023 vs July 7, 2025

Strength training requires adding plates, adding reps, and adding lots of patience.

Results don’t come overnight.
But, you never know how good it could get if you don’t keep going.

Sometimes the changes are small, until you look back over a longer period of time and they’re not.

Funny thing is, I’m sure I thought I was looking jacked in the picture on the left, when I took it two years ago.

It’s cool to see the changes and the growth.
It will be even cooler to see what another year or two can do.

So, don’t quit before all the hard work shows.

👀👀👀 First they watch… then they copy.

What they consistently see will be their norm.
What they see is what they become.

Train them young.
To be confident, daring, powerful, fierce, capable, dedicated, happy, proud, loud.

Hanging on to my 30’s like…

Tomorrow I turn 39!!! (Sounds crazy to say to be honest).

This will be my last year in my 30’s… which means … honestly nothing to me.

I remember being younger thinking 30 was old. Now I’m hitting 40, and can’t say I feel old at all.
I’m stronger now than I’ve ever been, in more ways than one.

If I’m sore or achy, it’s from a tough workout.
If I’m tired, it’s from waking up early to go to the gym.
My age has nothing to do with how I feel. It’s my thoughts and my actions that determine that.

If you think you’re old at 40 or 50, I’m sure you’ll feel it.
But if you’re slightly delusional and in denial like me, your age won’t matter.

“Don’t make a face, don’t make a face…”

A lot of feelings and faces were made during my first competition, but most of them were happy!

Still made a face though.
