Love them or hate them.. DAILY STEPS are a sure fire way to support your goals (and waistline!) this summer š£
Itās so easy to pull away from accountability when feeling out of routine ⦠BUT this is one I wonāt be missing (and Iād invite you to join me in sticking with this too šŖ)
Post holiday weight gain? Walk.
Feeling overstimulated? Walk.
Low Energy? Walk.
Low Mood? Walk.
Ready to kick ass on your Health Goals? Time to get walking š
Anything between 10-13k steps a day should roughly be the aim (person dependant)
Will you always feel like going them? No.
Will it take effort to stay consistent? Yesā¦.
Do we deserve to make that effort for ourselves? š HELL YES š
*little disclaimer, I didnāt wear my watch on holiday! A week off is healthy.. a summer off is detrimental š
Drop in the comments below.. have you been staying accountable to your steps this summer so far? š

MINI SERIES.. EP1!
I was THAT Mum!! For too long!
Sorting everyone else and getting to back to my own goals when the rest was āsortedā š§ŗ
It wasnāt serving me.. OR my family
So now, without fail the first thing we prioritise post travelling is a wholefood shop š š
Getting back to routine with nutrition is the quickest way to remove overwhelm and return your body back to routine.. which is what it needs to Thrive šŖš
Hope this helps.. mini series incoming ā³
August goals letās be having you⦠who else is with me? šš»āāļø

Coming away for 10 days and feeling good the entire time isnāt a brag..
Itās a reflection of the lifestyle Iāve built āØ
Majorca has been amazing š„²
Weāve eaten Ice cream, burgers, pasta⦠all of it!
And on day 10.. I still feel strong, energised and confident in my body.
And ladies, this isnāt me flexing.
Itās the unlock Iām sharing š«¶š¼
This holiday hasnāt been ācleanā (thereās actually no such thing)
So no, this is not whatās made the differenceā¦
What has made the difference is how I LIVE the other 350 days of the year š
Not spending life on a ādietā ⦠but living well and protecting my health as a standard šŖ
Thatās the actual unlock š
When thriving is how you live (not a plan you follow for six weeks š) a holiday doesnāt undo anything.
Thereās nothing to undo!
You built enough margin that two weeks of joy doesnāt cost you the year!
This is exactly what I help women like you build inside of my 1:1 coaching
Not restriction ā
Not yo-yoāing through summer
But a way of living, solid enough that you get to actually ENJOY your life!
Ice cream included.. without it meaning anything š
Thatās the flip.. Discipline earns you Freedom. Not the other way round.
If you want this to be your standard .. not just a momentary 2 weeks of the year.. DM me āCOACHINGā and letās talk about how I can help š¤

Your Central Nervous System is running everything in the backgroundā¦
From how you think, how well you recover.. your ability to manage emotions and act on your good intentions (or do the complete opposite š)
Yes .. Iām here to give you the scoop on the best way to workout.. the foods to eat and all the other good stuff to Thrive in Life after 40!!
But I also want to be real about the āunsexyā stuff tooā¦
Because this is the āreal workā (and my clients will much for it)
Want to get in incredible shape AND be able to stay there?
Do the invisible workā¦
CARE for yourself instead of constantly punishing yourself into losing weight

Eating out multiple times this summer already (and of course every day on holiday!) and still feeling GREAT in my bodyā¦
Not because Iām being āgoodā š
And certainly not because I starved myself to allow for this flexibility!
But because Iāve got a few things I do automatically now .. that used to take so much willpower to even think about š
Swipe through for what it actually looks like for me ā
And donāt forget to SAVE š
(steal what works, ditch what doesnāt!)
This is the bit nobody talks about⦠it was never really about the meal out š
Itās what happens before and after it (the lifestyle) that makes the difference.
If youāre heading into a summer full of holidays, BBQs and eating out and you want a way through that doesnāt involve feeling restricted or as though the wheels are completely off š© .. this is exactly the kind of thing we work on inside Time to Thrive Group Coaching.
Linkās in bio to start NOW.. or simply DM me āREADYā š¬

Two important reminders ā¼ļø
For you amazing women following along here ā¦
(Donāt miss no2 š)
1ļøā£ The way you feel in your body WILL change from time to time (sometimes daily)
Remember this is just a āfeelingā ⦠whether thatās, big, small, strong, bloated, heavy, energised⦠these āfeelingsā are all fleeting.
If itās true Transformation and Freedom that youāre striving for, trust your habits instead šÆ
TRUST that if youāre showing up daily - like you said you would - that this IS enough.
Are you keeping accountable and leaning into discomfort?
Stay honest with yourself⦠results come from here.
2ļøā£ Swipe and zoom š
See that sagging skin on my stomach?
Wrinkled and āimperfectā
The reminder that EVERY woman who posts the flattering body confident angles⦠also has a camera roll full of pics sheāll never show too.
Stop comparing that one pic of yourself you donāt like ⦠to another womanās perfectly curated feed.
(This had to be one of the quickest ways to bring yourself down⦠and this is not how we want to rolling if we plan to Thrive āļø)
Remember 99% of this is mindsetā¦
No transformation will ever be sustained unless the way you āthinkā changes too š«¶š¼
