THE WORK IS THE REWARD

Our daily actions are the best predictor of our future and identity.  We are never entitled to an outcome or a result, only to the work and process of what we are striving towards.  We often will look at an outcome as the reward of our efforts, but it’s the work and the efforts themselves that create our experience. The process is the reward.  The work consists of the challenges and small wins we encounter along the way to our ever-moving goalposts.   The work and daily actions are what shape our character.  The work IS the reward!

Keep Showing Up.  Follow Your Curiosity. Be Brave.

The mindset of high performance is about commitment, values, learning, right effort, personal accountability, humbleness, optimism, and gratitude.  It’s committing to hard work and goals, but with intention and awareness. It’s remembering that you can’t control the outcome, but you can control your effort and your attitude.  The work is the reward!  The lifestyle of high performance is treating your body well with physical training, mindfulness practice, eating healthy, and sleeping.

PLANT-BASED DIET

Being a plant-based athlete has helped me recover faster, improved blood flow, and made me stronger! Diet can be so confusing. I changed mine because I was worried about diseases.

There are thousands of peer-reviewed medical and research journals outlining that most of our health issues and can be prevented with a whole-foods, plant-based diet. Lifestyle changes aren’t easy, but changing mine enabled me to win a World Championship, gave me the energy and mental clarity to start my own business, and has contributed to helping me become the best version of myself.

The more plants and plant-based alternatives you can add into your diet, the better you’ll feel. It’s not about being perfect or even labeling how you eat- it’s about making healthy daily choices that compound into thriving health and longevity. One of my roles as a health coach is to help people change their behavior for optimal health.
