When was the last time you did something for yourself? For me, this looks like prioritizing workouts. I used to be great at this. I did yoga, Pilates, Soul Cycle, dance classes, major organizing jobs that counted as cardio and weightlifting, and didn’t hesitate to hire a personal trainer when I needed that extra accountability.
I can easily get distracted by all those important Mom life things and find that another week or month has gone by, and I never really prioritized a physical workout. Can you relate?
This episode is a friendly reminder to spend some extra time on yourself. If that means a workout for you, but finding the time or money to make that happen feels overwhelming, simplify it! Just decide to move your body intentionally. If that’s 30 minutes of push-ups and stretching, going for a walk with your neighbor, or hiring a boxing trainer to whip you into shape, then go for it!
Here’s where I tell you I’m totally obsessed with boxing now because I hired a trainer. I needed the accountability, and boy did I get it! Stay tuned for a boxing video montage that will surely follow this episode.
