Fitness, purpose… and one small favor

I’ll keep this short and sweet. For the past few weeks, I’ve been competing for a chance to be on the cover of Ms. Health & Fitness. I honestly can’t believe I’ve made it this far. To be featured on the cover of a fitness magazine after age 50 would be such a meaningful full-circle moment. If you’d like to support me, you can vote once per day for free. And if you feel moved to go a step further, there’s also an option to donate to the Be Positive Foundation. They support children with cancer and their families while funding innovative research to improve outcomes. There is a lot of cancer in my family, unfortunately, so this is a cause that is near and dear to my heart. Either way, thank you. Truly. Your support means more than you know. On the Heal Nourish Grow front: • You can still join the free Healthy Habits Challenge at any time if you want a simple reset. As always, I love hearing from you. If there’s a topic you want covered or a question you’d like answered, just reply and let me know. I read every email myself. |

03-09-2026 Hello Reader, One thing surprised me about doing the Habits Challenge this month. It was how good it felt to finish something. There are two days left, but it already feels like a win! I finish a lot of things every single day. But it has been a while since I focused on a small daily habit that was just for me. Most days, finishing things looks like work tasks, household responsibilities, or taking care of someone else. This felt different. Not in a dramatic, life-changing way....
November 18, 2025 Hi Reader, Another year gone by...and they all seem to go by faster. I've been wanting to create this for you for years, and this year it was my goal to finally do it. When I've worked with people on their goals and resolutions in the past, one thing was clear. People tend to take on too much and they end up ditching their resolutions before January is even over. If you’ve been wanting a fresh start, this is your sign. Tomorrow morning at 6:30am ET, I’m kicking off my FREE...
November 18, 2025 Hi Reader, For over 25 years, I’ve worked in the world of nutrition, fitness, and wellness. If there’s one thing I've learned solidly it’s this: Lasting fat loss doesn’t come from restriction or the latest weight loss drug. Changing habits, proper fueling, quality nutrition, and recovery. That’s why I’m excited to be speaking at the Beyond the Belly Summit, a free virtual event focused on sustainable fat loss and real health — without extremes. In my interview, we talk...
