True success stems from adaptation. We have a vision, but more importantly, how we respond to it if things get out of our control matters more than anything. Are we taking a step back, reflecting, re-focusing, and re-planning?⁣⁣

My word for 2021 is 𝐒𝐈𝐌𝐏𝐋𝐈𝐅𝐘, and tonight’s workout defines it perfectly.⁣
⁣
This is me, right after my cool down from an at-home arm workout with two sets of dumbbells on my son’s play mat. I didn’t have time or energy to get to the gym, but I got it done and felt stronger and better after moving and lifting for 40 minutes.⁣
⁣
No fuss, just showing up and sharing it with you in a not-so glamorous picture. When in doubt, simplify my friends. 🏋🏼‍♀️✨ ⁣

Did you get a workout in today? If not, I challenge you to tell me what your simple plan is for tomorrow. Goodnight! 👋🏼 #workoutwednesdays

Like many of you, I am on the journey to clean up the products that I use in my household, and I want to get as close to chemical-free that I can by the end of 2021.⁣ I'm inviting you along for the ride to start living cleaner and safer all around this year, and I am very excited about this.⁣
⁣
What you use to clean up your messes, prep and store your food and purify your air matters! I'm pretty new to most of these switches, but I am learning a lot along the way and want to share the tips with you. And I would love to hear and learn from you, too!⁣

In anticipation of the biggest launch of the year with Beautycounter tomorrow (Clean Deodorant, YES!)

In a season where you feel completely out of control, let's talk about some of the things that you 𝐂𝐀𝐍. ⁣
⁣
No matter what kind of day, week, month (or dare I say year? lol) you're having, there are mindset shifts we can make that make all the difference. ⁣
⁣
These small decisions add up to equal a BIG impact on your mood, your level of productivity, how you listen and learn, and how your days go!⁣
⁣
And - here's the kicker - the only one who has control over them is YOU.⁣ 🎤

Let's start the new week ahead feeling a little more in the driver's seat.

My heart still feels heavy as I am continuing to process what has happened at our nation’s capitol on Wednesday. This is an unfortunate moment in time that will go down in history, and this makes me angry, frustrated, confused, and sad more than anything. What has happened and what is now our reality is truly unfathomable.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I have been taking a lot of time to pray for hope, healing, unity, and peace in our country, and I mentioned that in my stories but think it's important for the message to carry over here.⁣⁣

My biggest success in 2020 was realizing that I need to get specific with daily, weekly, and monthly tasks for all of the moving parts to my business and stop overcomplicating things.⁣
⁣
I need to 𝐒𝐈𝐌𝐏𝐋𝐈𝐅𝐘.⁣
⁣
Plans are wonderful and even needed in some compartments of life, but everything doesn't have to be perfectly thought out and structured to work.⁣
⁣
This goal to simplify applies to both personal and professional matters, as we tend to wait until “x” happens to pursue “y”. Sometimes “y” needs the “x”, but oftentimes it doesn’t. ⁣
⁣
We’re just set in that mindset of overcomplicating things that it becomes the normal thing to do.⁣
⁣
But why? ⁣
⁣
Let's shift and simplify in 2021!⁣
⁣
Read more about how I plan to simplify in the year ahead and chime in with your thoughts over on Life In Leggings today at bit.ly/lilsimplifyin2021 (link in bio).⁣

Here's to a great start to the rest of the year! 🎉

Hi friends, Happy New Year! 🎈 I think it’s safe to say that we’re all looking forward to a new year ahead and are pleasantly welcoming the beginning of 2021 today. We made it!⁣.⁣
⁣⁣
Did you go out or stay in to celebrate? We did a little bit of both, and I just published a new post on Life In Leggings recapping it all.⁣⁣

I’m not going to say that 2020 was the worst ever, although it might have been for a lot of people. My family endured a lot of hardships, that’s for sure, but we still made it out on the other side, holding each other a little closer with an optimistic outlook towards the future.⁣
⁣
Do we have all the answers? Definitely not. We may not even have a few, but what we do have is faith in our God to provide and lead the way, because He always does.⁣
⁣
Feeling a little lost, confused, and weird about closing out this year, but also very blessed and excited to see what the next chapter brings ... for all of us.⁣
⁣
There isn’t a magic wand that will suddenly change 2021 into a better year *tomorrow* ... that’s up to us. What have we learned from all of this? What are we leaving behind? Let’s fight the good fight into growing and shaping the next year to be better, shall we? 👏🏼⁣
⁣
I’ll be sharing more reflections and peeks into some of our plans soon, but for now, I’d love to know your favorite quote to help bring in the new year. I think you know mine! (Thanks, David Bowie.)⁣

In fact, the simpler the better, in my opinion. I've never been one to spend a ton of time on meal prepping. Instead, I prefer to shop for groceries with a mix-and-match mindset. (Scroll a few pictures down for what my typical grocery list looks like!)⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
Even when it's easy, there are still days where I don't feel like cooking and doing the dishes - anyone else feel like THIS was on repeat in 2020? 🙋🏼‍♀️⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
So, when I'm on-the-go or just on my way home from the gym, I'm extra thankful for quick stops that make refueling and eating clean a no-brainer with salads, warm bowls, wraps, and a ton of plant-based options for protein.⁣⁣⁣
