My chat box was missing during the live, so I’ll share my thoughts here. Today’s live was so joyful! The dancer in me loved the set of choreo that took me back to my high school jazz class days. Thanks, Marnie and team!

Visiting my college bestie outside of Cambridge on my way to the retreat and she wanted to do the newest posture class! And she is 9 weeks postpartum (number 3)! She wore him for part of the class! Will post a video to my IG but wanted to encourage the new mamas to do what your body allows with all the modifications you need, baby wearing included. :)

The bf’s 14-year-old daughter Delainey did the Barbie class with me. This was her first full hour long class!! Woohoo!!

-seeing 3 friends this past weekend: a beautiful and pleasantly challenging hike with one, an arts festival with another, and coffee with another.

-an extra day off (today!)

-leisurely mornings

Friends!! Question for you: Do any of you work in strategic partners? For my new job I am formalizing our program and I’d like to know what other companies, orgs, and/or non-profits do in terms of an “application” or interest/intake form, vetting or approvals, perks, what engagement looks like, etc.

Would love to chat with you!

Rock on, challenge on!

For this challenge I looked at things I’m currently struggling with, which are screentime and eating enough fruits/veggies. My goals are:

-Read 30mins 4x/week

-Write or paint or create 1x/week

-Increase fruit (5x/week with breakfast + 3x/week as snack) and veggies (5x/week with lunch, 2x week as snack).

Rock on to us!

Here they are!

Sharing two photos from a week in Paradise Valley, MT! We went to Yellowstone NP, through Grand Teton NP, did a 2 hr guided horseback ride, got craft coffee in Bozeman, and ate some good stuff!

Also, as a quasi step mom (50% of the time), this trip was rough in spots. I remember being a kid and complaining about the drive and the “are we there yet?!” questions every 15 mins, but we didnt have devices and near constant cell service. For the last 5 hrs of this trip I had no more patience, I had “ungrateful punks” in my head, I had zero capacity to answer questions. When we returned, I told my boyfriend I’m never doing that again and cried. (I’m okay today!) To everyone who is a parent, you are amazing and saintly and your kids will appreciate you more and more as they age.

ANYWAY. So ready for the challenge and some recentering and the love of this community!

Hi Fam!

I did the Wednesday live this morning and wiggled and wobbled my way through. Marnie’s words about showing up when we are messy immediately made me think of a post on insta, shared here. Our messy makes us who we are!

Fam! I’m starting a fully remote job on Mon. My coworker June (in photo) is thrilled! I’d love to hear from any other WFH peeps on wellness, productivity, taking a day in a coffee shop or social space, working when kids are home (summer break is coming and my boyfriend and I have his kids Sun-Wed), etc as I test out what works for me. My adjustable desk and ergonomic chair are already on the way!

Thanks and rock on!
