I'm Sprung ;) Body Beast Week 2





I really love this song:)  It seemed fitting.  I'm very much "sprung" or hot on the idea now of lifting!

This is again, new for me because I feel stronger and more talented at cardio. I do think I'll need to mix in some body combat or I'll lose my mind soon:)



So something else I'm sprung on? Helping people! I have found my passion! Its not making a lot of money tricking people, its making a living loving who I am and helping others reconnect with what they need to love to be happy. Themselves.  Some of my tricks?



1 - put the scale down.  get rid of it.

2 - positive affirmations. DAILY!! outloud, tell yourself, 10x, "Im enough"

3 - skip the negative talk. youre not fat, youre not ugly, you may not be rich in Hollywood terms but youre rich with life. Live that way then!



2 months until my half marathon and I'm praying to cross the finish line! This program has definitely made me feel much much stronger.



*WHATEVER IT TAKES!* XOXOXO Jess

Back to Food Basics

So I did an experiment this week.  I made bone broth and an entire week's worth of mustard/collard greens with that broth. Let me tell you what- Granny had it right -  shoot HAS it right! She's 94 and amazing. I remember thinking this is sooooo not enough food! But I was full after eating something as simple as greens and cornbread. I rarely got sick as a kid... Stayed pretty immune healthy (other than allergies but that's a mile long post). Being in the health and fitness industry, you'll see all kinds of fads go by. Low carb, high protein, gluten free, fat free etc etc. so when I saw the GAPS diet I blew it off. Looking at it closer- it's a back to basics thing. It's how I grew up. It's CHEAP!  My granny grew up in a time where there were no scraps, just opportunities to stretch meals from those extra weird pieces like neck bones, chicken bones, whatever was in the garden.  This isn't a blog about the GAPS diet (highly recommend you research though)  B...

Ongoing Lessons in Life and BALANCE

Hi My name is Jessica and I’m admittedly diagnosed with  ADHD. Watching my feed it’s like, “right. was there a question? You randomly dress in tutus”  However, I’ve always been more than functional with this, but sometimes, or rather for me, one time, it got to be more than I could bear. It takes a transition to get you to re-think and reassess how you approach things and how you react to changes and issues that come about. This is the longest post ever but here we go... The Background  I’m a middle child.    Middle child syndrome set in long ago and I’m definitely a people pleaser, mediator if you will. I love it and sometimes hate it.    I want to be mediated on once in a while! Can someone sorta let me just BE there and NOT be involved in the resolution? The answer is usually no.   Pressing on, I got married a little young, 23 to be exact and proceeded into full Stepmom (two amazing kiddos), wife, worker, grad student, gym go...

Divorce diaries

 this will be a shorter sort of rambling entry. It all matters. With my ex and I called it off, I put up a huge wall and that wall translated into every part of the life I have with my daughter. As much as I thought it didn't matter, kindergarten has been kicking my ass. You read that right my ass. All of it. And I have a big one. And why? Because of that damn wall. We weren't talking. So House on the right didn't know what house on the left was dealing with. It was pretty much awful. But I have seen though is my daughter be someone I didn't know she was, and show me that she's 100 times smarter and more clever than I ever gave her a little clever but credit for. So the diary of a divorcee  starts here…this is the lesson. They're smarter than us. So you got to talk. Kindergarten is getting a little better, actually a lot better. Who the heck learns Mandarin and Spanish , before they get there for teeth? And oh gosh the front teeth. That's another entry 😜… B...
