Teachers LOVE Summer and I love using this time to maintain a healthy routine and build new habits for the school year in the fall. 

We have more time to create a workout habit, try new recipes, and connect with other healthy teachers! 

This guide has my favorite "no equipment" workouts to do at home or on vacation, recipes that just scream summer, and my favorite healthy summer tips for success. 

My gift to all of the teachers FINALLY on Summer Break! 

Download this free guide (click on photo) and stay connected through my newsletter for new ideas from this happy healthy teacher/librarian all summer long.

I just finished listening to the book Soundtracks: The Surprising Solution to Overthinking by Jon Acuff. It's basically about how we overthink everything. Ever do that? I sure do! (In fact, he says we ALL do!) 

I distinctly remember a conversation at a PTO/Staff event with a mom of one of my students:  

She said, "Isn't it true how we all go home and think, Did I say the right thing? Oh I am so dumb for saying that? Did I listen enough? I probably sounded like a crazy person? and in that same jumble of thoughts, we are probably also thinking about the other person, Oh they were so nice. I'm so happy to have met them. Why do we do this?" 

The circle of 5 women all completely agreed and felt like she spoke to our soul. We are never critical of the other woman like we are with ourselves. So knock it off, right? Easier said than done... I would love to meet a woman who doesn't do this. Are you her? What are your tips? ...

I'm currently sitting on the North Shore of Lake Superior looking out my floor-to-ceiling windows at the enormous lake. It's a little chilly to be sitting outside this morning (53F) so I'm sitting by the sounds of my sweet son breathing softly on the pull-out couch. My kids were baffled at the idea of a bed being INSIDE a couch. We forget the things they simply haven't experienced yet and can't even imagine unless someone tells them. It was so funny to hear their questions and ideas of how this bed thing would actually work. At first, they thought they were both just sharing the couch and worried it wouldn't be enough room. And we never thought to correct them or explain. I mean, who doesn't know what a pull-out couch is?

The warmer weather is here and we are all thinking we need to "get healthy" again after 2020. I am here to guide you to that healthy life you really want. I warmly invite you to start simply with this free guide. Forward to a friend for the accountability and camaraderie we both know is key for consistency!
