They say as we grow up we create two versions of ourselves, the private and public self. The private is the person we are behind closed doors or with a select few people. Whereas the public is who we are to the rest of the world. The public self is constantly changing to fit in […]
I have gone back and forth with creating an inspiring holiday post to encourage each of you to embrace all the festivities. Particularly in terms of nutrition, as I know many people struggle with moderation or indulging at all. All of which comes from fear of regressing or not being in control. The worst one […]
There will always be someone who puts you down, expects more of you or disapproves of how you live life. Sometimes it is even the people closest to you, that’s ok because it teaches a lesson that everyone deserves to learn. Not everyone will support you. Honestly, they do not need to because it only […]
There are so many workout and diet plans out there with more coming out every day, especially now since everyone is still in the “NEW YEAR NEW ME” phase. Yet, I’d like to go against the mould and create a lifestyle, not a plan. That’s what we do each week, add new skills to our […]
The twenty’s marks the start of a new decade, and everyone is raving about it. Similar to how they rave about every new year with the age-old saying “New Year New Me.” Furthermore, setting out with goals of being healthier, spreading positive vibes, changing jobs the whole nine yards. I stray away from those cliches […]
Christmas season is an amazing time of the year family comes to visit, good food, time off work, presents and other festive things.

When you fast, there is an allocated timeframe to eat. At first, you countdown the hours, minutes and even seconds until your window opens. The final minutes before, you have already mapped out what delicious food will serve to break the fast. Nuts, fruits, veggies, maybe a meal from your weekly meal prep. No matter […]
I want to tell you about a skill I’ve been trying to master, one that can change the outcome of any situation in a matter of minutes. Once you are open to it, that is. The ability to produce positive thoughts, and experience the world through your lens, rather than everyone else’s. Simply put, living […]
Throughout my fitness journey, I have had various injuries and aches. Shoulder, knee, lower back, ankles and even chest, because of poor form or pushing myself too hard. A lot of people recommend resistance bands for rehab, while others have said rest and ice down after every session. All good advice, but for me, the […]
Recently I completed the plant-based nutrition certification to gain the knowledge I need to help others live a healthier life. My friends and family immediately asked me.

Recently I have been thinking a lot about dietary labels and the negative/positive connotations set for them. As someone who believes labels are overrated, it is amazing and sad to see the stories people have created in their mind based on other diets. Without taking the time to fully understand someone’s choices or health goals, […]
There is so much talk going on today in terms of dietary needs and restrictions. Do not eat this food because it causes cancer or another deadly disease. Then a new study is released that refutes the previous one. The food that causes deadly diseases is safe to eat, but now another one takes its […]
Today’s post ignites a new era for the blog. Entrepreneurship is much more than business, it is a lifestyle that encompasses all that one does. At the forefront of this is self-care which involves the interior and exterior body. The interior being governed by the mind. A muscle that rarely gets stretched. That said, I […]
After years of fine-tuning in conjunction with a bit of trial and error. I have reached a point where my cardio workouts exert the right amount of energy in the given time. Therefore, allowing me to burn just enough to continue my current program. Three exercises make up each set and there are six sets […]
Continuing from my last post, what is an appropriate goal? Before jumping directly to an answer, take a step back to think about the goals you have set in your life thus far. Do they consist of easy tasks, hard tasks, beneficial ones or simple ones? If they are a mixture of all of these […]
There are times when our daily/ weekly business goals are not enough. We accomplish everything on the checklist, yet, there is no real sense of achievement. This was very common when I first started and it got me so frustrated. It was like no matter what the goals were there was always more that could […]
Everyone has the “perfect” pre-workout routine these days or at least claims they do, so you buy whatever they are selling. Yet, no one goes out of their way to tell you the benefits of alternative methods, but then again who wants to do that? The answer should be everyone but in reality, it is […]
In this field, one must shift their concept of time. A perceived commodity that is taken for granted every day. Now, I have told you before that being an entrepreneur provides freedom to push our business goals forward rather than someone else’s but pushing forward is a want not a given. A shift in concept […]
(IF) … to most this is recognized as the word if but to others this capitalization means Intermittent fasting. A form of fasting that focuses on cycling between eating and fasting to yield a plethora of health benefits. Before going into more detail I’d like to point out (as usual) that I am not a […]
In the beginning, motivation is high, excitement is through the roof and you feel unstoppable. There is no one telling you what to do or how to do it. Rather, you are the captain of the ship, rocket, or any metaphor that come to mind. Startup names start to form, social media profiles are made, […]
One of the most important parts of living a healthy life is how we nourish ourselves and what that consists of. Now I am not a nutritionist (I know a good plant-based one if you need) but over the years I’ve tried a few “diets”. Some of them are carb cycling, high protein, fasting, just […]
