How to handle the next 9 weeks..

Can we address the big festive elephant in the room?

The holidays are right around the corner, which means if you’re a busy parent who spends most of the day chasing after your kids AND you’re still working on a full body transformation..

You have two choices:

  1. You can continue prioritizing the new healthy habits you’re building through this busy season…

  2. Or you can put your health on hold, promising yourself you'll "start fresh" in January.

It’s going to get a little hectic, and in my experience, it’s better to acknowledge it now!

And, if you know you’d rather choose Option #1, you’ll love what we have planned for you this month.

The thing is, even though Option #1 SEEMS more difficult this time of year…

It’s actually your ticket to enjoying the season MORE.

Yes, you can modify some of those habits to give you more wiggle room right now…

But when you (mostly) stay on track:

  • You’ll have more energy to enjoy time with family and friends
  • You'll be less likely to fall into the winter “funk” due to inactivity and junk food
  • And you can still enjoy holiday treats – without the guilt – because you have a solid plan!

For example, if I miss more than 4 days of movement, I’ll start to feel that ‘funk’. So, I’m laying some ground rules with myself — like aiming for getting into the gym at least 2 times a week, and on the days i can't get there - a 20 minute walk instead!

It might look completely different for you…

But simply acknowledging that you can enjoy the holidays while still prioritizing your health is a powerful first step!

This month we’ll talk about what to do if you DO overindulge…

I’ll share my favorite “lazy” meal prep strategy so you always have ready-to-go, healthy food in the fridge…

And a few helpful mindset shifts to keep in your back pocket as the days get shorter and busier.

I hope we get to see your face in the gym and make the last 9 weeks of 2024 count!

Let’s do this!

Committed to your health and happiness

The team.
