Meet Ilana
I loved the MEET ILANA video! My takeaway was that she was so resilient through her childhood! I loved that she said even during her struggles with her weight at 8 years old the nicest person to her was her dietician and she knew when she grew up she wanted to become one and help others just like her R.D. did for her. I freaking love this FOOD FREEDOM Program!!!!!
Are you in my group where the videos, recipes, and homework is posted? If not message me ASAP!!!! This is LIFE CHANGING!!!!!
We officially start Monday, so you can catch up on PREP WEEK if you need to!!!!
Please fill out my FOOD FREEDOM FORM HERE
I'm Proud of You
Sometimes I still struggle with that need to be liked. I'm still that child looking for approval, and it could be the middle child of 5 kids syndrome, but the more I take care of my health (especially my mental health) I start to recognize those triggers that make me feel less than.
When it happens, I have to pause, take a few deep breaths, put my hand on my heart and say, I'm doing OK and I'm enough and I'm proud of you, Sarah.
Can you repeat that RIGHT NOW!? LITERALLY, repeat it and put YOUR hand on YOUR heart and say those words and end with YOUR NAME.
did you do it??.... I can wait......
(One minute later)
I'm proud of you. Thank you for doing it.
If you struggle with this approval too, just know you aren't alone. And it's also ok to have these moments. Proves you aren't a sociopath, so that's a good thing, ya know?!
You care because you ARE a good person. And no, you don't have to compare your life to anyone else's.
So stop, and reflect on something you are proud of today. Did you celebrate that? If not, maybe it's time.
It's time to celebrate your wins, not just big wins, but the small tiny wins you might have overlooked.
You are kind. You are passionate. You care for others. You are doing good in this world. you are enough. You are worthy of love.
You don't need validation from someone else. You need this love, approval and validation to come from YOURSELF. Right now.
Love you,
Xo Sarah
Shake for Dessert
I'm gonna have my superfoods shake for dessert, so I decided to dive into the "VEGGIES most" concept from our FOOD FREEDOM meal plan and made a "hot salad" for lunch instead.
I used my quick chopper and chopped....
Onion, broccoli, mushrooms, and sautéed with olive oil and "better than bouillon" sauce.
Once cooked I added the kale so it was just slightly cooked, and added 1/2 an avocado to mix in.
I always say I'm not a cook, but honestly this was easy and tasty. Maybe there's hope for me and cooking after all. Anyone else trying to add more veggies to their diet? What's a veggie filled recipe you like?
The World is a Book
"The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page."
- Saint Augustine
If you get a chance to go, definitely visit the Mayan Ruins. So much history here. Our tour guide was also so passionate about what he shared & I'm so grateful I went. #successclubtrip2023
How Many "Almosts"
How many "almosts" are you gonna live through this life? And is it because you fear what others will think of you if you decide to TRY? Because if your tribe is gonna be that judgey, then maybe that's not your tribe... & deep down, I think you know that too.
I think most of us at one point are in that "ALMOST" phase of life...which is fine to be in..but NOT to stay in.
I know I went back and forth with this business for nearly 2 years & it's never about it being "a perfect fit" for yourself...instead it's about learning to let go of the need to be perfect or for it to "feel right" and be at the "right time".
Because trust me, there will always appear to be greener grass somewere else, until you FINALLY realize YOU are enough to grow and YES, you WILL grow if you DECIDE to live outside the safety of "ALMOST."
Always rooting for you. It's time for you to root for you too.
Restaurant x2
What's better than eating at one restaurant for dinner?! Eating at 2 restaurants! Seriously, all -inclusives do it right!!!!! I was pretty hungry... danced all day at the pool and came in 2nd at the belly flop competition and had to land on a balloon to pop it all in all, it was a perfect day. Can't wait to see the rest of our group come in tomorrow
Work Attire
some people are motivated to work hard with makeup on and dressed up. I'm not some of those people. Gimme a clean face, robe and superfoods shake and I'm ready to crush my work from home job what about you!? What is your ideal "work attire"?!
One Week Til Mexico!
One week until I leave for this Mexico trip again that I earned from the Coaching company I work for. If your job isn't gifting you a trip for 2 per year to an all-inclusive resort, by helping just 4-6 new people per month then maybe it's time to look into this.
If you want access to my OPEN COACHING GROUP just send me a message, I'm an open book and can share with you what I do daily. Wanna check it out?
