HopeFit

I think it's really semantics when someone advertises that they can balance your hormones. Hormones are meant to fluctuate.

Did you know that you can improve your hormone health through nutrition, exercise, stress management, and sleep?

Through lifestyle changes you can help to improve the way you feel during the menopause transition.

Will it end hot flashes, mood swings, fatigue, etc,.... no? But it may improve them and help you to be better able to handle them.

This is why having a coach can be so helpful to not only provide structure but teach you how to have structure with backup plans.

Instead of I'm not doing this workout because I don't have the energy, let's figure out what you can do that will still keep you moving forward in your health goals.

You are guided away from the all it nothing mindset and shifted to a more flexible, achievable plan that leads you to better outcomes.

You are taught to listen to your body and making choices. You are taught how to make a contingency plan of options ahead of time for those days when you have low energy, decreased focus, fluctuating moods and aches and pains.

This is in my Menopause Coaching Specialist Certification.

The full quote is, Many people mistakenly think motivation must come before action. They sit around waiting until they feel motivated to do something, when in fact, taking action leads to motivation.

I find this to be true in many areas of my life. The more I just do the things I need to do, the more I want to do them. The longer I procrastinate, the less I do. When I exercise, I am more likely to eat better. When I read a few pages from my certification book, it leads me to want to learn more.

Of course that's easier said than done. That's where having a coach is helpful. You get help setting intentions, making a plan, making a backup plan, creating habits and following through.

I am so honored to be able to help women do just that. With each step you are one more closer to reaching that goal or attaining that lifestyle that you desire.

These are the classes I currently have openings in. If you are interested in a different day/time send me a message with the times and your email address. I'm looking to expand classes at my home gym and possibly at a location in your area if you have a space, for the fall. I wil be starting a wait-list.

I finally took my hats and shirts in to get my logo on!! They look so good!! I worked at the hospital today and while I enjoy my patients, there's just nothing like owning your own business and taking care of YOUR clients and freely being myself!! I love my HopeFit Family!!! You guys are amazing, you're valued, you're important, you're warriors. Each and every one of you whether you've been a client in the past, had one conversation with me or whether you've just followed along here. I plan to stick around for many many years.

My favorite mother/daughter duo! It is so fun to have 2 generations working out together. I'm so blessed to have them in my class. It's a reminder of what this is really about. Faith, family, health, and quality of life.

***Vulnerable Post***

This is from my prayer journal when I finally started feeling some relief after a year of pain, inflammation and severe fatigue. I went through several set backs after this but continued to make net gains towards better health.

I prayed a bold prayer for Him to guide me, to show me what He wants me to do, and that I would say yes. If I'm being honest though, when I felt like I had my answer, I was scared. I had prayed a similar prayer when we lost Hope, our 3rd child. It took us on an incredibly hard journey that has challenged me and our marriage like nothing else. It has also been one of the best yeses we have made.

I am so incredibly grateful that I am getting to do this thing. I love that I get to shine His light and love while helping to provide for my sweet family. It has not been an easy road but goodness it's been so incredible.

My Duncanville group is filling up quickly. Come try out a class for free! Just had a lady come today who has rehabbed from a rotator cuff tear and looking to progress her strength. Modifications provided but even more importantly we will work on balancing your strength and mobility so that most modifications won't be necessary. Message me for details.

Excited to keep growing my knowledge! I'm only on Chapter 2 (got the materials 30 mins ago) and already know this is going to be a coaching game changer!!

I still have some spots left! And listen, first class is always free!

✅free workouts on my app.

ALL OF THIS FOR (🥁 ROLL PLEASE!!) $150 per month with a 3 month commitment.

This will be a first come, first serve application process.

Message me ASAP to apply.

If I can run a business and take certification tests on this old shabby laptop, you can workout with just some water and maybe some bands and light weights.

I would say it until the cows come home, it doesn't have to look a certain way to get started. I started this business literally in my garage and backyard with a small group of friends. I started my workouts at home with stretching and bodyweight exercises.

Stop looking at these chicks on social media and thinking they have it all together. We all started somewhere. Sure there are a few that started off fairly fit in high school and just continued to be that way. Most of us though had to work our way back from postpartum or illnesses or depression or just life got in the way.

You can start now, on a Wednesday, in the middle of the day on your living room floor. Your kids can be crawling all over you, they make great weights. 🤪 You've got this sis. I believe you can do this and I'm here to cheer you on!

I've procrastinated long enough. I have read all the modules and successfully guided several clients on their weight loss journey but I just haven't taken this darn test. Mainly because there are no definite answers and that drives me crazy when it comes to a test. I know that it will all depend on my clients feedback, medical history, food journal information and so much more. It's not just 1+1=2. Weight loss is science and art. It requires dynamic thinking and nuance. Humans are not stagnant, we do not go in straight lines or follow a textbook.

So what are you procrastinating about because you know it will take work and that it requires a little discomfort. If you get started today though, won't you be that much closer to where you want to be?

When I complete this test, it won't be over. I will still have learning and growing to do. There will always be new information and different clients will bring different challenges. However, I know that I will continue to learn and grow with them. I am excited to continue to help more on their journey while I continue to stay on top of my education!

Come say hi!

Are you a messy cook or do you keep it all organized? I am definitely messy, especially when it's a recipe. I am notorious for not fully reading all the steps too and realizing that I was already supposed to have the meat cooked and shredded or something like that.

I tend to be that way with a lot of things. I'm all in, I don't always see the bigger picture. I am all heart and passion. For me it doesn't have to be just right before moving forward. There are good things and bad things that come with that.

Are you a jump in with both feet kind of person or an analyzer? Neither are wrong. When it comes to fitness and nutrition though, you can definitely overthink and over analyze and end up doing nothing. You have to start somewhere and it definitely doesn't have to be perfect.

If you are ready to be in a supportive environment that is encouraging, motivating and judgement free then this is for you!!

I am offering a free month on my app in addition to:

⭐ Help with organizing and growing your group
⭐ Guidance on how to plan gatherings
⭐ Encouragement and Accountability with the
workouts
⭐ A prayer partner to walk alongside you and your
group

After the month is up, you all can decide if you want to continue using the app and the support I provide or do your own thing.

$15/month per member after the first month.

Message me to get on the list! Feel free to ask any questions you have here or in messages. This is a dream of mine because as a mom of 4, I totally get how isolating it can be sometimes.

I've been volunteering at the shelter and walked this sweet girl. She is so gentle. If you are looking for a laid back companion, she would be a great match!

Meet Rosie, the lovable Anatolian Shepherd. Rosie is as sweet as can be and absolutely adores being the center of attention. She prefers to be the only dog in the household so she can have all the love to herself. Despite her size, Rosie doesn't realize it and loves to cuddle up like a lap dog. She would also prefer a household with older children. Don't worry though, she's got great leash manners and walks like a pro. If you're looking for a loving companion who will steal your heart, Rosie is the perfect match!

I nerd out a little on the science. I realize this isn't everyone's thing though. I think knowing the why behind this though can help boost your desire to stick to it. I have a couple of clients who are still in the stage of not believing even though one has lost inches in just a could of months of minimal changes. 🤣

The take away here is you can do some damage to your hormones from chronically dieting or undereating. They are reversible! Depending on how long you have been in this cycle will depend on how long it will take for your body to respond.

When I work with my clients, I'm closely monitoring their body's response to determine what I need to tweak. Sometimes they need more carbs or more fat depending on their energy levels. Sometimes they just need to stick with the current plan for an extended period of time to undo some of these hormone changes they've experienced.

Not everyone I work with is in this category of chronically undereating. That's why I have clients track for a few days before giving them a plan. I need accurate information in order to provide an accurate program.

So why can some people undereat and not gain weight? The research is unclear on that. There is some speculation but that's beyond this post.
