#11 How I Recharge & Integrate Fitness into My Business

In this episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes of what my fitness currently looks like and how I recharge with off time. I pick up where I left off in episode 9 in this 2-part series talking about what’s currently going on in my own self care balancing act. 

I’ll include the comparison of my old perfectionist exercise schedule to how I’m finding my way back to regular fitness, how I’m finding body acceptance, and my struggle to separate work from the rest of my life and be more present. “True BodyLove isn’t contingent on a specific weight or clothing size so that when we hit life changes (like entrepreneurship and motherhood!) our body image stays intact.” – Adria DeCorte In today’s episode, you’ll learn:

• Why gaining 10 pounds brought me closer to body acceptance 

• 2 major steps I’m implementing to go from “no time” to work out to a regular fitness schedule that makes me feel strong and energized

• How I use movement to dissipate nervous energy before I hop on the mic for podcast interviews or take the stage for a talk 

• The only way I’ve found to shut off my maximizer brain and find something close to “meditation” – and the surprising way I incorporate it into my workday

• My morning ritual step-by-step, including the “rules” I break (which I had a TON of guilt over until I accepted it)

• What I’m doing to make my work and home surroundings more inspiring – a surprising element of self care!

• The relaxing shift in how I plan my business that has been a HUGE part of my self care (and how I’m not taking my own advice right now – oops!)
