I'm an adventurous introvert from Vancouver, Washington who lives on sleep + "me time." I'm a lover of lifting weights, dinosaurs, real talk and traveling with my husband. I am here to help you move better, lift more, bust the myths of the fitness industry, and inspire you to love the process.
It’s time to stop procrastinating. I am unsure what percentage of humans suffer from self-caused procrastination, but I’d guess it’s most. That guess in based on interactions I’ve had with other homosapiens. And today I’d like to offer some solutions based in tough love. I got pretty frustrated a few weeks back. Between clients and […]
Especially in the western world, it seems to be preached that more is better – that we should always be after more, that more is to be coveted. Annie’s being philosophical again, watch out. Truly, I know nothing other than what I have experienced. So, that’s the lens I am sharing through. I don’t know […]
Comparison. Feeling behind. Not having your “story” yet. All very normal things in any facet of life – especially in fitness and business. You’ve heard all the quotes. “You can’t have the 100th without the 1st,” “Don’t compare your 1st year with my 5th year.” They’re cliche AF but SO TRUE. My hope today is […]

You think you need more knowledge, more experience, more flare/personality, a larger following. WROOONNGGGG. You’re wrong. You really need to: Show […]
Comparing the newbie versus expert mindset. And the progression of becoming more of an expert or learning something new to becoming seasoned. See the comparison + process below. It is very common to start off with rigid beliefs about concepts and philosophies on a given topic. We see this ALL the time in the world […]
IF YOU’RE HUMAN, YOU’VE EXPERIENCED A SLUMP. I have wanted to speak on this topic for a long time. And I think that’s partially because sometimes I feel like people think I don’t experience slumps, or low motivation. Which is hilarious because motivation is NOT how people become successful in any area of life. Discipline […]
