Motivation Monday

I have to admit, lately, I have somehow lost my ambition. It used to flow so freely and come so naturally. I am not sure what has taken the wind out of my sails. Some days I struggle to workout, to eat healthy, and to prioritize my own well-being. I often put myself on the backburner and often sacrifice my own self-care. It can be so easy for self-doubt to creep in and for me to want to give up on my health journey. Life sometimes can throw curveballs at you and you start to question your career choices and ultimately what is right for your soul. I am a mother, a wife, a full-time employee, and a student. Sometimes those role overlap and sometimes I am overextended. Sometimes I feel tired and worn out from all of the demands.

You may ask why I am telling you this. I am telling you this because I want to encourage transparency and honesty of ourselves. I want you to know that life is not easy for ANYONE and that it is okay to struggle. Once we are able to commit to living true to ourselves and who we are, there is greater room for growth and peace. As I sit here and reflect, I am striving to create an authentic life for myself and those around me. In doing that, I can find the path that is right for me and know what complete happiness is for me. I want to connect with you as the reader as we go through life together.
I want to foster transparency in anyone that I encounter.


I will start by taking care of myself in the moment and the moments that are to follow, starting with a bike ride.


￫Tell me, what is one way that YOU take care of yourself??
