“#3 Remove Judgment

We all have people in our lives who have an opinion on it just about everything. It can be your best friend, a coworker, a spouse, your mother… But the one thing that we must remember is that their opinion really doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things. I know that can be difficult to hear, but as someone who’s spent the majority of her life living according to how others saw her, I know this can be a harsh reality. I went to school and studied things that I didn’t like because I felt my family would not approve and deem me to be strange because what I was passionate about wasn’t the norm. And when you live in environments where there’s a lot of judgment, we start to absorb a lot of that energy. Can you think of a time when you decided to embark on something new and a little voice in your head said no you can’t do that? I mean, where is that voice coming from? If its not yours, whose is it? And have you stopped yourself in your tracks when you were about to do something that you thought others would find weird or silly? This is judgment. And this judgment doesn’t serve you. When you are ready to embark on something new that feels warm, light and you’re passionate about it; you should do it. Regardless of who is and isn’t looking.

#4 Surround yourself with like minded people

Believe it or not, I am a bit of an introvert; and if you were up to me I would be a hermit. People never seem to believe me when I say this, but it’s true. I absolutely love my work and enjoy working with women and seeing them transform their lives, but for the most part if I have the choice of being alone all the time I probably would. It’s not because I don’t like people, it’s because I love myself. But, the one thing I do know is that if I didn’t get out and surround myself with people who have the same interests as me and were supportive, kind and loving then I wouldn’t be able to do the work that I do. One of the many things that I do in my life, is I am professional dancer. I’ve been dancing for well over 20 years and absolutely love it. But because I’m a bit of an introvert I can find myself in a period where I am not dancing at all. I’m not taking class nor dancing socially; therefore not surrounding myself with like minded people. And then an opportunity will present itself for performance. And I realize I’m not prepared, not completely confident. It’s not like I forgot how to dance, but it’s almost as I’ve forgotten how to interact which the changes of dynamics in a group and in the end, doesn’t serve my work. So when you’re starting up a new workout program or are you’re wanting to try new recipes; grab a friend or friends and get together and talk and think about what it is that you all want to accomplish and hold each other accountable. Support is a huge part of any journey especially in health and fitness.”
