Controversial Things I Do In The Health and Fitness Space

Today, I want to share a list of things I currently do (I say "currently" because these could change!) that 'technically' go against the Health and Fitness 'rules' you see online, whether it's on Instagram, TikTok, blogs, YouTube, or maybe you're old school and still read articles from online magazines 😉.

Don't get me wrong, if I didn't have 2 jobs and a life to show up for, I'd love to do a 20-step morning routine.
But, I live in the real world.
As I'm sure you do too;)

Next Monday we’re travelling to Cabo! We’ll be away for a full 9 days, so I thought I'd take a moment to share my approach to travel when it's longer than just a quick weekend trip. I’m sharing my approach to food, movement, supplements, alcohol, and mindset.
