Show Notes
Connections are my shorter episodes that include my inner thoughts, behind the scenes realities, tangents and experiences to help us feel more connected!
Middle school kids and pre-teens get such a bad rap and in today's episode I talk about the joy I have found being around middle school age kids. I dive into the joy I have found with our kids at every age and encourage others to find some grace, love and support for any middle schoolers in their lives. This is an episode for every parent, grandparent, teacher or human who wants to have a positive impact on the kids in their lives.

It seems like everywhere we turn, there's another wellness trend promising to help us look younger, feel better, live longer or optimize our health. Full-body scans, peptides, weighted vests, skin treatments, supplements, hormone therapy—the list is endless!
Walking is one of the most accessible and beneficial forms of movement we have. But with all the current emphasis on strength training, lifting heavy and changing how we exercise as we age, many women are starting to wonder: Is walking actually enough?
“Toned” is one of the most common words in fitness. We are told we should want toned arms, toned legs and a toned stomach. We believe certain workouts will give us “long, lean muscles,” while heavier weights might make us “bulky.”
Women over 40 are hearing the message loud and clear: You need to strength train. You need to lift heavy. You need to build muscle.
How can we help kids grow up feeling safe, confident and connected to their bodies in a world that constantly tells them that looks and size determine their value?
