How To Supercharge Your Motivation!
Today I want to spark your inner fire, providing you with the fuel to overcome obstacles and ignite your passion. Everyone needs motivation, even myself, and it's not a one-time fix. Motivation, like self-discipline, requires consistent practice as both thrive on one crucial factor: ACTION! We can think and fantasize all we want, but if we don’t take action, nothing will come of our thoughts. Action must be taken, and that action must be consistent over time. And I'm not talk

Own Your Power
It’s time for a pop quiz! Don’t worry... There’s just one question. Who’s in charge of your life? If you answered “I am,” then congratulations! You’re right.

The power to create the life you want is within YOU, nestled alongside that awesome concept of personal responsibility. They’re joined at the hip, those two, and that’s what I want to write about today

When to ‘Lean In’ to Change
Change can be hard. We’ve all tried to fight one change or another, right? But it doesn’t always have to be an uphill battle. In fact – here’s a big secret – change can be your greatest ally if you take the right mindset about it. Lean into it. It might feel a little awkward, but you’ll get stronger the more you try it.

The path to gaining everything you want starts with making a powerful decision – and then backing it up with aligned actions every single day.

Use Summer Motivation to Help You Win All Year Long
Summer is such a great time for inspiration. You don’t have to look far to find motivation everywhere. The sun makes you feel good… the vibe is relaxed… and we’re more encouraged to exercise and eat right because we typically wear less clothing, right? We have our eyes opened by travel.

Shape Your Identity From The Things You Want
We all have a sense of identity of who we are. For instance, you might be an American. You might also be a parent. You could be a spouse, too. You could be a writer. Some parts of our identity are given to us and fixed, but others we choose on our own – often without realizing we’re making a choice. So, let’s think about the choices we make that affect our identity. What are those choices based on? We believe they’re based on what we want and how we limit our chances of suc

If You Want to Change Your Actions, First Change Your Values
Have you ever felt like a phony? Like you weren’t “walking your talk”? We're talking about a time when your ACTIONS did not line up with your stated VALUES. We’ll give you an example. Some people say reading is important to them. But they can’t tell you the last book they read. If they actually valued reading, they’d say, “I read the new Stephen King last week.” It’s not simply a matter of being inauthentic or disingenuous. It’s called cognitive dissonance – When your action

Let US Independence Inspire Your Own + Let Freedom Ring!
Coach Heather Binns' here...And not just our national independence from England. Instead, be sure to celebrate your own personal independence today. It’s my favorite part of the holiday. Creating independence is inspiring when I apply it to my own life. I’m not a history professor, but we all remember that the colonies stood up to a bad situation and deliberately forged a new, brighter path – right? They knew it wouldn’t be easy, but they had their goals, reasons, and will. W

Get Fit FOR Your Family (Instead of Making Them an Excuse)
We want to tell you about two sisters we know. They share many things in common – DNA, childhood experiences, basic values, etc. But they couldn’t be more different when it comes to fitness. One is a super-fit competitive athlete. The other smokes are overweight and spend a lot of time on the couch. Seriously! And we're trying not to judge here, but bear with us. Here’s the point... Here’s the difference between them. It’s how they relate to their own fitness to their familie

Why We’re Compelled to Seek Personal Growth
Growth and movement are good things, right? You bet! They’re even totally NATURAL. In fact, they’re absolutely essential elements of life. So, it’s only natural that we are compelled to seek personal growth as we move forward in our journeys. We’re as much a part of nature as anything else, right? Well, that’s true for those of us who have a growth mindset, at least. We’d say that covers roughly half the people we know – including people like you, who are seeking paths to i

Physical Pain Can Be a Symptom of Emotional Pain
Have you ever been sick with the flu and found yourself feeling mopey and sad, maybe even sobbing? Sure – we’ve all been physically sick enough to suffer emotionally as well. But we’re not always as quick to understand that the phenomenon works both ways. Sometimes we can feel so bad emotionally that it causes physical pain, too. The mind-body connection is real. It is powerful. And it can knock you down, literally, if you’re not in tune with what you’re feeling. The experien
