You do YOU, with purpose
If someone is judging your path, let them.
They don’t walk in YOUR shoes, right??
We all have different life experiences & struggles that lead us to the paths we choose & we cant let other opinions & beliefs cloud what makes us happy, proud, healthy, strong. Right?!
I love that my team understands this business is about learning to become your best self at every stage of the crazy beautiful life & inspiring others to do the same 
Did you think you’d be further along by now??
Well then PERFECT! That just means the opportunity is probably bigger for you than it was for someone else!
The people who are the most inspiring are the people who show they’ve overcome the MOST obstacles & beat the strongest odds
. Those are the people who give others hope & a reason to carry on.
Everyone loves a comeback story, a rags-to-riches story
, a transformation story
, a struggled rise-to-the-top story
! But what’s even cooler is showing OTHERS like you that it CAN be done ..despite what others may think 
or say
.
Serving others leads to confidence & sense of purpose. Confidence & sense of purpose lead to happiness The challenge is where it all begins
I love challenges!!
(except no-point-to-it, annoying challenges
)
Sometimes I wonder if people think working out, eating healthy & being a BB Coach is my LIFE. And it’s totally not; but those things DO help me be at my best so I can enjoy MORE of my life. I know most of you, parents or not, can relate, right ??
So.. is where I am in my free time and wouldn’t have it any other way 
Tyler is currently on 4 teams right now (2 basketball 
, 1 travel lacrosse 
, and track
! He loves it and so do we!
I know a lot of you are moms (& dads) and would agree that watching them progress and learn some life lessons in sports/dance/music/art/etc ..is SO fun! I don’t post much of this side of my life because I know my son doesn’t want any spotlight or mom-bragging
Do you tan?
I avoid “real” tanning so I spray tan. But if I need a touch up, I like “Flawless” by Fake Bake (on Amazon).
I’ve tried Sephora’s St Tropez but didn’t like it as much.
I’ve come to learn some people don’t start in business (or other new venture) because they don’t want to be seen as a beginner.
They’re used to being comfortable or advanced/successful in what they do.
Learning something new is always awkward at first & the fear of what others will think while watching the early stumbles, is paralyzing for many.
The ONLY way I know to break free from that is to decide your purpose is bigger than your fear of judgement.
As Dr Seuss said “Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind”

I get stress, anxiety, fear, overwhelm like anyone else but one thing I have learned is to drown out negativity, excuses, & anything that may distract my top priorities that keep me happy & feeling balanced.
Know what you want, believe you can achieve it, pray about it, be a student who learns AND quickly applies even in the presence of fear
, & don’t let others’ opinions deter you. I tend to WAY overthink things & then WAY UNDERthink other things!
But I’ve learned to keep things as SIMPLE as possible and protect my positive mindset more than ANYTHING & just be grateful
But that said, it honestly can FIRST get very complicated to keep things simple; i.e saying no, making sacrifices, taking chances, embracing the unknown, making changes in your schedule, ditching the need for perfectionism, making changes in your lifestyle, hiring help, etc., ..these are all very hard & complicated but sooooooo worth it to have the simple things in life that make you happy
Really, what good does it do to stress/dwell on something?
Pray, do your best, and let the rest fall into place where it’s supposed to.
Thank you @ power of speech on IG for this simple truth!!
Maybe not the BEST habit but when I’m craving something sweet at night, I like to have some decaf coffee w/Califia almond milk creamer & stevia 
. Most of the time, I don’t even finish it ..it’s more of a distraction from something else.
What do YOU do?
Off-the-shoulder tops… awesome or no ??
I’m obsessed with off-the-shoulder tops, always have been, always will be
People ask me where I get them & I don’t get them from any ONE particular store- they’re everywhere.
If it’s not meant to be worn off-the-shoulder, like this one (it’s an OLD Lululemon top), then I either cut it or stretch it out to be!
