In Progress: A Health and Fitness Journey

This is a topic that is relevant to most, if not all, people. I think we have all experienced a time when we've looked in the mirror and maybe said something negative about ourselves. Y'all loved my self love episode, so hopefully this is another episode that many of you can relate to and put these strategies into practice.

We all know the first thing to health is healthy eating, but sometimes it can be difficult to know where to start. I compiled a list of my favorite grocery store items, fraudulent "health" foods to avoid, and my favorite food finds in Houston, TX.

It's no secret that I love writing exercise plans for myself and others. And as a trainer, my goal is to always have my clients no longer need me. I'm letting you in on how I write exercise plans, things to keep in mind, and the thought process behind it all. Grab a notebook (or your notes app because this is 2021) because you'll want to take some notes!
