We get 1 life…Are you living the best one? Will you still be active with your kids in 10 years or too tired? Will you have zeal for the everyday tasks or will you just be going through the motions?
One year ago, at this same beach 🏝️ I got a word - inspire. God spoke to me and said, “you are good, I love you, you are enough, and I’m doing a new thing. Go and be my light. Inspire”
So, I took baby steps. Talked to a trusted coach and friend. Saw a change emotionally, mentally and physically. I consistently moved toward my goals, no not perfectly, there were times I gave up and said nope I can’t do this…but thankfully, I have family and friends that encouraged me and by December I saw such a whole body change! I was stronger in every way! My clothes fit better! My mindset was healthier- not shaming or telling myself I “should” all the time.
In February I started wondering what was next?! Dreams from 10 years ago (when I was not in a healthy space) of doing a bikini competition came back…and I pushed them away. But they kept coming and a trusted friend who competed a couple years ago was brought into my life. And with the simple question, “are you competing”?! There was no stopping me! Everyone’s goals are different and you do not have to take it to the extreme of competition. But it is essential to evolve and change and grow towards healthy goals.
Make small achievable goals. Take a 30 min walk. Wake up 30 min earlier. Read a chapter a day. Talk intentionally to your spouse and kids each day. Reach out to a coach or person you trust. (You know I’ll be your biggest cheerleader 📣) it’s all about consistency, determination and taking action. God made you in His image for an amazing purpose - YOU were made to do GREAT things!
