A wise woman once said, “no one gets out of life for free.” Despite how wonderful and joyous life can be, every one of us will experience betrayal, pain and loss in one capacity or another.
Someday the man who walked you up the aisle at your dream wedding is going to die. Someday your best friend in the world will do something you don’t like. And someday you may experience a loss that feels unbearable.
“When you blame others, you give up your power to change.” –Robert Anthony
What separates truly happy people from the “misery loves company” category is taking responsibility for everything that occurs in their lives and pushing hard to live with positivity despite the heartbreaks, failures and stumbles.

Mindset
Did that title catch your attention? We women love to say that we believe everyone deserves love, happiness and success… but do you actually, at the core of your being, believe that to be true?
We are all worthy, regardless of our size and what’s going on in our lives. On paper, we all say we are in alignment with that belief. But the fact is, many women are still skipping events because they feel uncomfortable in their bodies, they are still telling themselves that they don’t deserve love because they are overweight, and they are still holding themselves back because they don’t think they deserve the same experience of joy that slender women have.

Food Prep
There is nothing worse than thinking you are eating healthy when you’re really not. That’s hard work wasted. Most people need to revamp their eating habits when they try to cut calories and get in shape and the quest for “healthy choices” becomes nearly all-consuming. The advertising and food myths out there make it easy to choose foods that have a reputation for being healthy but really aren’t.
You’re smart, so you already know that drinking fruit juices with all the processed crap in them isn’t healthy. But what about other so-called “healthy” foods?

We all know that eating more plants is rule number one for “eating better.” But what if you are a veggie-phobe? Eating more than four servings of vegetables a day can be crazy challenging if you’re a grab-and-go eater, a poor planner, or deathly afraid of all things green.
Even when you know you need to incorporate more vegetables into your diet, it’s easy to look at the clock at dinner time and realize not one bite of nature’s bounty has passed your lips all day.
So how do you get more vegetables into your daily intake?

Fitness
We’ve all heard the usual motivators for getting to the gym. You’ve probably tried getting a workout buddy who keeps you accountable or promising yourself a reward after you finish. You’ve bought a smaller pair of pants to work your way into or purchased a gym membership hoping that the membership card alone would motivate you to exercise. But sometimes those tried and true motivators just don’t cut it and then you need to bring out the big guns.
What can you do that could possibly motivate you to get your butt moving after a gruelling day at work, in classes, with the kids…etc?
This is your time, a new opportunity to set your fitness goals and smash them. Don’t let fatigue, stress, or negative self-talk keep you from achieving your fitness goals.
