Although I promised James a fur baby one day, this isn’t our pup . We borrowed the dog from the hotel pet adoption program and took him 'fur a walk' .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ My personal mantra (as well as James) is to “just keep moving”. But, damn it, this got me in trouble.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Two years ago, I was diagnosed with low cortisol (aka. adrenal fatigue /burnout). Cortisol is our hormone that helps us to adapt to stress. We actually need it to survive. My issue was that I hustled, and burned out all that cortisol.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This led to:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ fatigue⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ low blood sugar⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⚖️weight gain⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ♀Cycle imbalances⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ and even low grade depression⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I now work with women that experience these symptoms but they don't connect it to the fact that they're burned out themselves. Instead, they keep hustling and blame their weight gain on not doing enough when in fact, they need to do less.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ️‍♀️When it comes to exercise, I've learned to listen to my body in two key ways:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ➡️If I'm particularly stressed, I skip the gym and get outside instead.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ➡️Day 1 & 2 of my cycle, I'll walk or do nothing at all. This is a game-changing approach esp if you've dealt with issues around your cycle.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ **If you're experiencing any of the symptoms that I did experience, then I welcome you to post your Q's below OR send me a direct message.**⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #exercise #stress #itsallgood #stressedout #weightloss #weightlossprogram #stressmanagement #stressless #lifeisprettydamngood #workweek #lifebalance #burnout #adrenalfatigue #mindfulnesscoach #inspire #keepingitreal Such an important reminder as we round out this busy week don't cha think?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ →Instead of trying to be the best in everything we do in our careers and at home, I like to encourage my clients to integrate elements that can actually help YOU to be at your best first.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Here are some recos that I resort to when I'm feeling like I’m pushing too much:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Sleep⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ‍♀️Taking micro-breaks⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Hydrating⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🤣Laughing⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ️‍♀️Workout / walk / dance⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ➜I'd love to know what you do to help take care of YOU when you're hustling too hard? Let me know in the comments below....⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #careerwoman #careerwomen #boss #bosslady #wontstop #hustle #bosslife #bossbabe #entrepreneur #entrepreneurlife #careerwoman #startup #womenrising#empower #transform #business #suityourself #businesswomen #commentforcomment #comment4comment #success #ambition Guys...I'm on a mini-vacay with my sweetie this weekend in L.A. and Palm Springs and I plan to eat up the rest of this book while I'm here. This one been a BIG game-changer for me...⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Truth be told, I don't always speak so optimistically about circumstances in my life. I believe in amazing things for me but it's sometimes imbedded with "I can't do this" "this won't happen" etc. You feel me?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It's something that I continuously work on so ... I do the work‍♀️ VERSUS complaining that the world is out to get me ⚡️.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ →TELL ME...what book are you currently reading and loving right now? This baby is done soon so I'll be in the market for new one ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #personaldevelopment #beyondtheweight #weightloss #mindset #weightlossgoals #weightlossjourney #health #lifestyle #motivation #bookclub Planks are like the right? But, listen girl: planks are not going to get rid of the POOCH if you don't take a good hard look at what you're eating and your lifestyle.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⚖️I literally have held all my weight in my mid-section, especially in my abdominal area. Where'd that come from? I was addicted to carbs, I drank more than I needed to, and I was stressed and burned out corporate employee 🤷‍♀️.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Fat in the abdominal area has been linked with inflammation, erratic blood sugar, and insulin resistance.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⚡️This means that crunches and planks will do absolutely nothing for you #sorrynotsorry⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🤩Solution: consider a low-carb approach to eating which helps to properly balance blood sugar.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ‍Solution: get a handle on that stress girl. Practice some self care and rock a 10pm bed time.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ➜Does this sound like you girl? If it does, you'll want to hit up my FREE 5 Day Metabolism Boosting Meal Plan + Recipes here: http://bit.ly/cleaneatsplan or in my profile.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #weightloss #weightlosscoach #weightlossjourney #nutritionist #weightlossmeals #dairyfree #glutenfree #grainfree #paleo #lowcarb #highfat #lowcarbhighfat #bodypositive #eatrealfood #weightlosstips #jerf #paleolifestyle #weightlosscoach #weightlosscoaching #jerf #whole30 #weightlossprogram #weightlosssystem
