It feels strange sharing my final post in my series celebrating women business owners given the country’s current situation, but now, more than ever, it’s important to promote local businesses however we can. Fortunately, I was able to complete an in-person interview with the women of Mission Fitness in early March. I hope you’ll support…

What Does It Mean to “Listen to Your Body?”
Intuitive eating and exercise are ubiquitous within the healthy living circle—and for good reason. Let me disclose that I’m not a trained fitness or nutrition professional, but even I can attest (mostly from personal experience) that a diet and exercise routine too regimented and predictable isn’t very good for you. I think most people would…
5 Food & Fitness Habits I No Longer Practice
Today’s post is inspired by Ashley and Erin who both shared similar posts recently. I’ve written about how my mindset and routine concerning fitness and food have changed in the last few years—particularly since giving birth—so I thought I’d reflect on some of the ways I’ve changed for the better (read: healthier). I am not…
Aaptiv Review: How Busy Moms Can Stay Fit (& Have Fun!)
Exercise doesn’t have to be complicated with Aaptiv, an affordable fitness app for any lifestyle and fitness level. With its new maternity and postnatal program, Aaptiv is perfect for new (and not-so-new) moms! A little over a year ago, I wrote about how motherhood has changed my approach to fitness. You can read that post…
Thoughts on Meditation
No matter how you slice it, I’m a high-strung person. Always have been, even as a child, and I probably always will be (fortunately for me, Bazooka appears to share that trait—parenting is going to be fun stuff). Tension is my middle name (or may as well be), and relaxing is often a struggle. Relaxing!…
I Think I Might Be Over Group Fitness
Last night I attended a group fitness class that I haven’t been to in ages. The instructor is a great, sweet person—and she’s incredibly fit and encouraging—but sometimes I feel like her classes may not be the best fit for me. In fact, I think I might be over group fitness.
Life Lessons Learned from Fitness
Over the years I’ve unfortunately become more sedentary than I used to be (thanks to a 9-5 office job), but throughout my childhood, I was incredibly active and fit. Competitive gymnastics was a huge part of my life, and while it provided me with many memories and entertaining experiences, it also taught me several life…
What I Learned Running My Most Recent 5K
I mentioned it on Monday, but this past weekend I ran (and walked…there was a lot of walking) a 5K. This was the 3rd annual 5K on the Runway right by where I work, so I was excited that I finally was able to participate (the first year, my doctor hadn’t released me from my…
How Motherhood Has Changed My Approach To Fitness
Hey friends! How’s your Thursday shaping up? I am loving how quickly this week has gone by thanks to the Labor Day holiday. And, after a week of battling some type of allergy attack or cold (leaning toward cold), I’m glad I made it back to the gym after a 2-week hiatus. The only bad…
Why I Unabashedly Love The Olympics
I am so excited because the opening ceremonies for the Olympics are tomorrow night! Ever since I was a child (an 8-year-old, specifically), I have been the BIGGEST fan/viewer of the games—mostly the gymnastics, diving, and swimming. I still remember the 1992 Olympics and how I watched my VHS (I’m old, ok?) recordings over and…
