Fit Life With Annie

Solo travel has given me SO much over the years. Experience, lessons, challenges, growth, perspective, passion, heartbreak, excitement, friendship, confidence… gosh, i could go on…

But, there was a point when i took that first trip & i felt allll the fear… 🫣 And i can honestly say, im so glad ive never been a person to let that stop me.

So im posting this for anyoneeee who might be letting that fear keep them from trying.

I promise you:

There is power in doing the things your mind tells you are “scary.”

Once you do it, you’ll see… it’s reallllly not so scary after all🫶🏼

and YOU will see that you’re waaaaay more capable than you once thought you were 😘

If you turn the volume up, you’ll hear Zach Bryan’s “Lucky Enough” Poem while you scroll through these pics.

I love the section that i have playing here, but toward the end he says, “If I’m lucky enough, I’ll make it exactly to where I’m taking this breath now…”

And it just makes me think… how every small decision, every seemingly unimportant conversation, every tiny little progression of life has led me to this very moment; laying in bed after a full day of exploring a new city in India, writing this caption, while revisiting old memories and moments from the past. Many of these snapshots in time are moments i wish i could return to… i really really do (for many reasons but mostly just one😣💔)

But, the truth is:

I feel lucky…to have made it to these moments depicted in the picture above.
I feel grateful to have a million other little memories that i couldn’t possibly even explain with photos…
& I feel abundantly blessed to have more life to live, beyond this day…to continue turning MORE moments into memories.

So no, i’m not scared of dying. i know that’s the inevitable end for us all.

BUT, i am scared of not living this life to its absolute fullest.

And im okay with letting THAT kind of fear dictate my actions and unravel my future. Because that’s a fear that catapults me into a life i’m proud of, rather than a fear that keeps me “stuck” in a groundhog-day-existence.

So here i am, doing what im doing, in this exact moment. And truthfully, i AM really proud of myself. ~ i know he would be too🫶🏼🪽

If you’re still reading, i want to ask you: what is something you fear NOT doing in your life, that you’re going to work toward accomplishing???

Life things i’ve learned in this last lap around the sun💛- Yall liked this type of post last year, so let’s run it back…2024 (1 year wiser) edition✨

Which “lesson” stands out to you in this season of your life!? I’d love to hear! drop a comment below🫶🏼

Anywho— No shame in my personal celebration game here🥳 I’m so proud of the 29 year-old woman i woke up as today, because it means i have TWENTY NINE years-worth of plot twists, heart tugs, growth seasons, and learning-lessons in my life bank🤑 & I can’t wait to keep tallying up more.

Ps- i am so grateful to have this community & platform to share and connect with so many beautiful souls. To every one of yall who has been apart of this journey- thank you🥹🦋

“The hallmark of an open mind is not letting your ideas become your identity. If you define yourself by your opinions, questioning them is a threat to your integrity. If you see yourself as a curious person or a lifelong learner,
changing your mind is a moment of growth.” -

OOOOOF😂 Some of these slides are less serious than others, but stilI- I am NOT embarrassed about CHANGING MY MIND over the years.

Giving myself the FREEDOM + PERMISSION to PIVOT when life calls for it, even (& especially) when it’s HEART-IN-BUTTHOLE-SCARY is something i’m ENDLESSLY proud of myself for being able to do

Most people allow the fear of the unknown, fear of others’ opinions, fear of judgement, fear of failure… FEAR IN GENERAL…to control the way they live their lives.

& i PERSONALLY THINK it’s one of the main reasons people feel “stuck” so often in life.

I guess you could look at these slides in a few different ways-

-damn, i hope she talks to her therapist about her commitment issues…

-damn, how embarrassing, she’s showing the world that she can’t stick to anything!

-damn, she’s really experienced so much LIFE in 28 years, i wish i could do that 😒

-damn, she’s explored so many different parts of herself, she probably has so much clarity about what she REALLY wants in life…

-damn, that’s inspiring, i don’t know why i feel so much fear around changing my mind in my own life, if she’s changed her mind THAT much in 28 years!

-damn, she’s right! i have ONE LIFE, why not do what i want with it, too?!!

At the end of the day, there isn’t a right or wrong way to look at this post and digest the meaning behind it; it all depends on where YOU are specifically at in YOUR own journey.

For me, looking back on some of the things i’ve said or the ways i’ve thought… allows me to fully appreciate the massive growth i’ve been able to experience.

& for that, i am so grateful.

so, a little PSA for anyone out there who might need it: you can choose ANY day to be your Day 1 of a new journey, new season, new decision going forward.

You never know what might come from deciding to CHANGE YOUR MIND or change your story, & see from a new perspective ✨🫶🏼

When you look in the mirror- what do you see?

Have you thought of giving THAT person, the one staring back at you, as much love, time & energy as you’ve given to others? Have you ever considered that maybe, the confidence, acceptance, & foundation you’re craving can actually be created within you? Rather than external to you?

2023 was a big year for redirection &self reflection for me🙋🏽‍♀️ & as i was having a convo w a client the other day, she shared something that i realized was important:

She said, “when i look in the mirror, i hate what i see & i want to change that”

I understand the intention here, but, as we approach a new year, & the idea of “change” might be hot on the mind, let me offer a diff perspective to the idea of creating change in a way that sticks

In the years leading up to this one, it was such a normal occurrence for me to feel bad about myself (my mistakes, my regrets, my actions, my appearance, my lack of follow through, my habits…) & use that negative feeling to SEARCH for answers in things around me-

“if i make X amount per month, ill FEEL successful”
“if i have a big group of friends, ill FEEL accepted”
“if i lose X lbs, ill FEEL beautiful”
“if i have a long term relationship, ill FEEL loved”
“if i am the life of the party, ill FEEL fun & exciting”

I was constantly searching for people, solutions, coping mechanisms, chaos…things EXTERNAL to me to “make me” FEEL better than how i felt when i was standing alone w myself

The end result…? Think of what a house would look like built on quick sand🫠🥴

when your self-worth is dependent on something external to you like relationships, fitness results or career success, you have no control over whether it stays or goes…

2023 was all about turning that focus inward. in doing that, i’ve found a foundation within myself that is so damn strong

If 2024 feels like a year for change, i encourage you dig deep & center that desire around LOVE, rather than trying to FIND it externally

& watch the magic happen✨

Everything you need, you already have- the one staring back at you in the mirror, she (or he) is a f**kin’ bad ass &deciding to show up for THAT person w all the love in your heart is

“You are allowed to be both a masterpiece & a work in progress, simultaneously,”

and idk who needs to hear it but it’s the dang truth.

you can be self confident in who you are and the growth you’ve experienced & still self aware enough to recognize where you want to improve and what you want to work on…

you can be happy with where you’re at & still have big goals for where you’re going.

you can be grateful for what you have & ambitious for what you’re still working to achieve

Here’s to the women out there choosing both, because it doesn’t HAVE to be either/or✨

📸 thank you for helping me step into my confidence during this shoot. It was SUCH a beautiful experience🥰🫶🏼

@ Atlanta, Georgia

HI I AM A strong, confident, healthy, happy woman, fiancé, daughter, & business woman, & I NEED TO WORK ON MY MENTAL HEALTH. hey wassup hello☺️



Mental heath IS NOTsomething to be embarrassed by. JUST like i talk about my physical healthy journey, i want to make mental health COOL😎 Because it is! It’s a journey. It’s essential. It is personal, it is individual, we all have strengths and weaknesses in it, and most of all, we all have TOOLS to improve it, if we look for it, and prioritize it!


For some reason, we have cultivated a society that hides weaknesses/struggles, in attempt to avoid embarrassment + judgment. 😞 So let’s talk about JUDGEMENT.


If judgement werent such a habit, we would feel more comfortable sharing our struggles+hardships. But, instead, we fear judgement so much, that we would rather deteriorate INSIDE, by holding something within us, than learn how to handle, approach, &grow from it. That’s the hard part about mental health. Admitting it, owning it, &working to improve it. i GET THAT. I get that because in a VERY real way, i dealt w/that. For years, i put off dealing w/ my mental health issues because i was told “you’re a smart girl, you don’t need a therapist” “you don’t have any real issues..just deal with it!” “you haven’t tried to kill yourself, so you’re fine” (YES, i was told exactly that by a military mental health practitioner. disgusting) And so, for years, i avoided judgement by avoiding the conversation. WHICH WAS NOT OKAY.


Today i’m going to ask you to do your part in ELIMINATING judgement from your daily habits. It won’t happen overnight, but the focus needs to be there.


How to eliminate judgment?? Let’s get SERIOUS. We all judge. It’s a habit, just like eating junk food. And it’s GOT TO GO. We do it mindlessly. So i’m asking you to CONSCIOUSLY recognize it. Everytime you JUDGE someone (think a negative thought, gossip, talk bad about someone etc..) form ANOTHER (positive habit) in its place (ie compliment someone, smile, focus on the positive) Tag someone who can hold you accountable in this...because it’s going to take effort. But i’m committed to being apart of the solution, &the improvement. Are you?
