Exercise is medicine for our body and soul, but what if it's the secret ingredient you've been missing in your family? A communication tool that fosters trust, emotional regulation, and lifelong bonding. Exercise is an unexpected but powerful way to build connection with your teen through movement.

Whether you're walking side by side, cheering from the sidelines, or swapping stories about your workouts over dinner, shared fitness experiences can become an emotional bridge in the often-complicated world of parenting teens.

You’ll learn why co-exercising (or even just talking about it) can help teens open up, why modeling movement matters during menopause and midlife, and how to talk about fitness in a way that supports self-esteem and avoids body shame.

If you’ve ever struggled to connect with your teen - or wondered how to prioritize your own health without guilt - this episode is for you. Tune in to reframe fitness as more than a habit. It’s a heart-centered strategy for growing stronger - together.

Thank you so much for being here! Happy July! I am simultaneously shocked that it is already July and confused as to how it is ONLY July, when I feel like I have lived four lifetimes since January! It's time for our annual check-in to see where we're at six months into the year - your intention, your goals - I had ZERO idea what my intention even was for this year, so don't feel bad if you may be just a bit off course yourself - we have plenty of time to course correct. We can reroute and realign - set or edit our goals - change the course of our lives at any moment - it doesn't need to be January 1! Join me today for a conversation about who you were six months ago, who you are now, and where you're headed.

Thank you so much for listening! I'm so happy you're here!

Most people spend more time thinking about what they don’t want than thinking about what they do want.

The overall narrative to focus on what we don’t want – avoiding the bad – or thinking in terms of the negative – quite often overshadows what we do want. And that tends to create a vacuum in our present because we don’t really find ourselves with anything to hold on to. And focusing on what we don’t want can actually end up directing us down the wrong path.

Where our attention goes, energy flows.

This fear-based thinking about the things that we don’t want to have happen actually end up leaving us little space to create the life we want.

But what about what you are trying to move towards? What you want to achieve? What you want to manifest? We can’t attain any of that if we’re stuck on what we DON’T want.

What would happen if you let yourself want?
