Turning what used to be the most hated part of my body, aka my legs, into my biggest flex 🙌🏼

As a little girl, I constantly heard that my legs were “too big.” I remember being in kindergarten wondering why my legs looked bigger than my friends’. Which means I probably heard comments about my body long before I was even old enough to fully understand them.

What those “kind” aunts or random people making comments don’t realize is that words like that hurt. They stick. They create a narrative. A negative one that can stay with us for years, sometimes forever.

I’d like to believe they just didn’t know better. But the truth is, people who bring others down are often trying to make themselves feel better at someone else’s expense.

I forgave the people who said those hurtful things to me, and I genuinely pray they find happiness.

And honestly? I’m proud of myself for turning something I once hated into a strength.

More importantly, it taught me to be very intentional with my words, and to never allow anyone to speak like that to my daughter, or to any child who is still learning how to see themselves 🫶🏼

If you were ever in this situation, and I know a ton of you have, i’m sending you hugs and hoping you were able to heal the relationship with your body 🫶🏼

Hey everyone ❤️

I wanted to share something a little personal. My brother’s dog has recently gotten very sick, and it’s been a really tough and emotional time for our family.

If you’ve been thinking about donating to help them fight cancer, I’m offering a small thank you in return for your support during this time. Any clients who donate will receive either a gift card for a future service or a discount on their next appointment.

There’s absolutely no pressure at all, your kindness, shares, and support mean just as much. I’m so grateful for this community and everyone who continues to support my small business.

Thank you for being here ❤️

ps. the link is in my bio and i know its in Polish - you can change the language to English 🫶🏼

If I could restart my fitness journey, I wouldn’t work harder! I’d definitely work smarter!

Most of us don’t struggle because we’re lazy, we struggle because fitness feels confusing and overwhelming at the beginning!

These are the lessons that changed everything for me, and the same ones I now teach my clients 🫶🏼

Which one do you relate to the most?

You don’t quit because you’re lazy! You quit because your approach isn’t sustainable.
Here are the top 3 reasons most people fall off their workouts:

1️⃣ Doing too much, too soon
2️⃣ No plan or structure — no habits
3️⃣ Relying only on motivation

The truth is, consistency isn’t built overnight.
It’s built through small, realistic steps you can actually stick to.

Start slow. Stay consistent.
And if you need help creating a plan that fits your life - not the other way around - DM me “WORKOUT.”

September was a strange month for me personally. Lots of ups and downs, lots of new realities, broken hearts and dreams but also full of happiness, pride and feeling of fulfillment 🌈 i haven’t had a month with so many big feelings in a while, but i still believe there’s something good coming out of situations that dont really seem that way at first ❤️‍🩹
