Your "Before" Photo is the Same as Mine...

I wish that I still had the very first set of “before” photos that I took of myself before I started treating my body, mind, and heart RIGHT. I would show them to every single one of my clients who didn’t want to take THEIR before photos, or to anyone who’s every told me that I am “intimidating”. Just like you, I had a “day 1”. It will always take work to get to a place where you are healthier and happier and feel better about the way your body looks. Just like mine did!

In my “before” photos, I wasn’t healthy. I was incredibly thin and sick a lot. I wasn’t eating enough and I was depressed, and anxious, in a toxic relationship. My hormones were whacked out to the point where I had to hide daily cystic outbreaks that would change the shape of my face. In summary, I was not in a happy place. Since those photos, my body has changed a lot. I have worked incredibly hard in all facets of my transformation—there’s no end to this journey!—and my physique has reflected times of emotional struggle, but also happiness (sometimes from too much wine :) and balance and self care and love. For my body type, I’ve been scrawny and thick, DOUBLE THICC, shredded and striated, gained some “happy” weight, pregnant etc.

What I look like RIGHT NOW, or what you look like right now is just a reflection of our individual journeys in life up until the moment we snap that first pic when we’re ready to get committed to a program. We each have our own individual story. Yours is just as special as mine, just as important, and all that matters now is that you are HERE, and are ready to make a change. Our bodies bear the weight of our battles. Grant yourself some grace and accept that where you are right now is personal and unique and that we can all get better together! I have by no means achieved my goal physique despite my accomplishments in the fitness industry! I am always setting new ones for myself and trying for the next level which is what I empower and attempt to inspire others to do for themselves.

Take that photo! Capture the moment you said “I do” to a better you. You’ll be glad you did it. #alwaysprogress #fallinlovewithyourjourney

Always Transforming,

Coach Elle

P.S. Get your own “before”! :P

Make Magic!--How the Law of Attraction Can Work for YOU!

Your road to manifesting is just as much about getting to know yourself better as it is about acquiring all the juicy, good things.

It’s definitely a journey, so focus on the journey not the end result!

Have fun! Vibe high! Learn about yourself, your desires, what you want your life to look like.

"Believing"--Create the Life You Desire

Some people think that life is always happening to them, but I’ve always felt that life is happening FOR us! Maybe, your perspective is like mine, and you feel that you are in control of what happens to you and how life will play out. Or, maybe you’re on the fence about trusting something greater (you don’t have to define or give it a name!)

MOM BUTT! Who, What, When, Where and WHY?!

Mamas; EVERY woman who has given birth is right here with you. If you've had a baby, you have one postpartum body thing or the other. Every pregnancy and every birth can affect a body differently. The "not-pretty" things we have trouble accepting and spend soooo much money and all of our spare energy trying to remedy--pelvic floor issues, skin elasticity changes, cellulite, stretch marks, muscular imbalances, boobs that aren't as perky as they once were. Real talk. If your postpartum booty looks a little less bubbly, there's a reason. The good news is, you don't have to live with it forever and there are many ways to improve the way your body changed post baby.

Allow Yourself to Feel

Research suggests that greater "emodiversity" showed a decreased risk for depression. This research presents that it may be best to experience a wide range of emotions -- both positive and negative rather than welcoming and prioritizing positive feelings and neglecting negative ones.

Results Live Outside Your Comfort Zone Physically & Mentally

When you feel like you can't go any longer, any harder, any further--push just a little bit more and that is when results occur. That is when change happens.

How are you ever supposed to get those results you want?

The Future of Mental Health

Taking care of yourself is much more than going to the gym, going for a run, and eating paleo/keto/gluten free. Taking care of your mind and soul is just as if not more important.
