Get Outside Your Comfort Zone
“Life begins at the end of your comfort zone.” – Neale Donald Walsch I watch my kids grow outside their comfort zones every day. It’s part of growing up and developing into a young adult. But once in adulthood, comfort zones become…well, very comfortable. This year, Lucy is on a competitive volleyball team, with strength…
Read MoreGo With the Flow
In February, my younger kids’ school closed for three days because the classrooms were needed for a conference. Staying home would have been easy. We’re so busy most of the time that I considered kicking back at home and relaxing. But where’s the fun in that!? Instead, I called up my friend Monica to see if…
Read MoreMy Crazy Addiction
My name is Lee and I’m addicted to scarves. There. I’ve said it. What a weight off my shoulders! I admit it: Living in Phoenix, a scarf addiction is a little odd. You’d think I’d be addicted to flip flops or sunglasses or swimsuits. But no. It’s scarves. I think my addition started back when…
Read MoreFacing My Fears Head-On
I haven’t always been afraid of heights. When I was younger, I had no issues with it—probably because we’re all a little more fearless before our sense of mortality sinks in. As I’ve gotten older had kids who depend on me, I’ve become more fearful of scary things. Enter zip-lining. While we were on vacation…
Read MorePerfectly Imperfect – Facing Imposter Syndrome
Sometimes… Sometimes I don’t even tell people I’m a Beachbody Coach because I don’t feel like I look like a Beachbody Coach “should” look. But, really, it’s okay to help others when I’m not perfect. I don’t know if you’ve ever heard of ‘Imposter Syndrome’, but it’s something I struggle with constantly. Impostor syndrome is marked…

Remember how I said I was going to do more journaling? And when I said it, I did mean it – but now here I am, months later and I’ve still got a bunch of blank journal pages staring at me and I feel STUCK. Part of the issue for me with journaling, I think,…
Read MoreLife Without Limits – All Day Breakfast
I met up with a girlfriend I haven’t seen in a while and somehow we got to discussing McDonald’s all day breakfast campaign and how happy we were about it. I know, seems like a silly thing to be excited about, especially for someone that doesn’t frequent McDonalds. In my former life, I was the…
Read MoreHoliday Food Weaknesses
Last month saw the holiest of Jewish holidays, Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. And with holidays come food—much of which doesn’t really fit into my nutrition plans. But traditional foods bring back memories of holidays past that are important to experience. High Temptation Days Like most years, the temptations were high. But I allowed myself…
Read MoreFrom Boise to Yellowstone and Back
In Less Than 48 Hours! One of the things I love about my job is the ability to work from anywhere! And, the freedom to take impromptu trips with my family. In June, Jeff and I flew to Boise with Molly and Jack. Jack was in a soccer tournament and the middle two kids were away…
Read MoreHow to Deal With “Busy”
I’ve heard it said that if you need to get something done, ask a busy person to do it for you. They’re busy because they know how to get things done. Well, I’m usually busy, but that doesn’t mean that I’m always on top of things. Often times, I struggle with the things I need…
