In this fun episode Samantha and I talk about how to incorporate slowing down and tuning in into your every day life.

In This Episode We Talk About:
The NY Times Article “Smash the Wellness Industry” (Find it HERE).
What intuitive eating really involves
Pop Tarts and Mac ‘n Cheese

Bigger bodies

Periods. Poop. And Sleep.
I got my period the other day (as I do routinely every 28 days) and I started to complain in my head. UGH - I have to remember to pack tampons in my bag, I'll probably need chocolate, and that also makes sense why I've been upset at the world the last few days and also feel like I'm failing at everything.
And then sometimes I think about how annoyed I am that I have been getting my period every month since I was 12. And will for easily another 20 years. WHAT AN INCONVENIENCE TO MY LIFE.

Do you ever hear the question……
“What would you tell your younger self?”
OR
“What do you wish you knew 10 years ago?”
And for me those would all be true. But lately I have been having coffee/catching up with clients I had 8-10 years ago when I was just starting out in my career and also just starting out as an adult.

Now a year after starting my 3rd network marketing business I am quitting.
As I have told many people almost all of them have said some form of "oh so you're quitting this company too?"
Yes. Yes I am.
Here's the rest of the story and why I feel so good about "quitting."
Have you ever thought about what you will do in your retirement? Maybe you will volunteer, have time to relax, or travel? I think travel is one of the most common responses I hear and one of my personal goals. But I have yet to meet two people who are really truly living it. Kathy and Marc are living an unconventional retirement and it's incredible.

Recently on a podcast the host said the phrase “up and to the right.” She was referring to the progress made by her premie baby – born at 27 weeks. Although there are minutes and hours along the way that aren’t great, and also huge moments of terror, the general progress of her baby was “up and to the right.” Full credit for the phrase to Amy Jo Martin of the “Why Not Now?” podcast. You can find more information and listen to her podcast HERE.
This phrase has not left me since then because I find it shockingly so true. Especially after my last blog “Would you work 28 years for a goal?” I can look back and say that generally I was trending “up and to the right” with my pull up goal. But it took 28 years and most of those years felt like a somewhat downward trend. When in reality, it was probably a slight uptick to the right.

March 31, 2015 turned out to be a spring day that us Minnesotans live for. The sun was shining bright, not a cloud in the sky, and as I walked out of the club for the final time, I felt as though I had lost 20 pounds of stress and knew I was headed in the right direction.
I walked the dogs when I got home and as I was walking, I felt so deep in my bones that I had made the best decision for my life.
HOLY. MOLY. IT HAS BEEN FOUR YEARS.

Erin's story is not one of always being an athlete but rather one of recognizing the kind of person she wanted to be, the values that type of person had and changing her life to become that person.
We also talked about body image and the challenge of being a "not typical" (whatever that means) athlete in sports where sometimes body size and shape can and does matter. We both get pretty heated with our opinions on the way women are judged on size rather than skill.
Erin is also an accomplished cyclist, a sport I do not know much about, and I think you'll enjoy hearing about a self-supported, 200 mile GRAVEL bike race.
