I have posted so much in the past few months? years? honestly and vulnerably about my struggles…
but I finally have some great stuff to share!
Write Doe Bay was everything I could have hoped it would be, and then so, so much more. It made me a better writer, and a better person. It helped me shift my own personal narrative and gave me so much more hope than I could have imagined. Hope I desperately needed. I will absolutely be sharing more on this after I’ve had more time to reflect on it.
And then THIS finally happened! I got my NASM personal training certification!
This is something that I have been talking about for years, but honestly, I was so afraid of failing that I kept not studying and pushing the exam off…and finally signed up for it this fall so I could stop talking about it and just do the damn thing. I’ll do another post on my crazy, cobbled together study plan/what you really need to know. My best friend is a physical therapy professor and tutored me, and her help made a huge difference and lit the fire under my ass I needed. I’ll be putting together some online programs (like my run coaching), so let me know if you’re interested!
That’s all for now! Just had to share being so excited since it’s been a while.
What are you excited about lately?
No idea why I chose Frank Sinatra lyrics to name my last post on this…
As I mentioned in my last post, I've really been going through it with headaches.…
(tw for diet culture talk—mostly how it's BS, but how it's affected me, too) This…
I have been thinking about this post for a while—on why diet culture is unhealthy…
I woke up this morning already feeling anxious. (Yay!) My standard iPhone alarm is set…
I read The Midnight Library over the weekend, and I need to talk about it.…

Congrats on passing your certification! That's definitely something worth getting excited about. When I passed my CSEP certification I felt like a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders - that all that hard work and studying had finally paid off.
Congrats! I am so happy for you.
Go You!! Such great news! I'm the strange woman who talked to you in the Brooklyn supermarket. I'm also a PT and I remember how great passing the exam felt. You'll be a great PT and I'm looking forward to following this next chapter. Congrats!
Sorry, by "strange woman," you mean amazing woman?
Hooray for excitement!! I am excited for you!!
As always, a late comment - but I cannot tell you how happy it makes me to read this. Just know that people you don't know are out here rooting for you - hard.
