Let’s keep trying to move forward friends 💕

Happy Friday!

✨ A different kind of ‘Before’ and ‘After’ ✨

It’s taken me months to post this, hence the sweats and long sleeve from winter, but I think it’s amazing how our bodies change by the hour.

The photo on the left was taken as soon as I woke up and hadn’t eaten anything yet. The photo on the right was after I had breakfast and lunch. (No sucking in or sticking out either!)

I had a couple food items my stomach doesn’t necessarily agree with (cheese mainly) but other than that, this is just what my stomach looks like when it’s doing what it’s supposed to do to digest the food I intake to fuel my day, and that’s okay!

In either photo I am no less beautiful, strong, or worthy ♥️ Every body is different and that’s a beautiful thing!

Happy Friday Friends!

Some good reminders as we head into the weekend 💕

Feeling overwhelming gratitude today that I had the opportunity to share what I’m passionate about on a world-renowned dance science podcast ♥️

You can listen now on Anchor, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you access your podcasts. And don’t stop at this episode, check out all the other amazing episodes that has to offer!

Your story is important, nothing can take away how far you’ve come ♥️

Today I ran 5K for the To Write Love On Her Arms. .

Today I ran in memory of my dearly loved brother, David, may your smile and laugh live on in our hearts forever.

Today I ran for my 14 year old self, to show her that she was created to love and be loved.

I’m posting this today to shout from the rooftops that your mental health is just as important as your physical health ♥️

As To Write Love on Her Arms would say: People need other people, better days are ahead, and hope is real.

If I learned anything from my research methods class with the lovely at Trinity Laban Dance Science ...

it’s that even if you CAN measure it, it doesn’t mean it’ll give you value if you do.

Furthermore, even if something SEEMS immeasurable, it doesn’t mean you can’t get valuable information from exploring that area.

Happy Friday friends! 🎉

Some words of encouragement before running the half marathon, and some words I will remember as I keep pushing myself to get stronger and go further 💪🏻

You read that right.

We’re going through tough times right now and while I’d love to meet with you over zoom, I understand if you have ‘zoom fatigue’ at this stage in the pandemic.

So why not pay 5$ per workout to throw on some of your favourite tunes, workout at your own pace, whenever and wherever suits you best!
