Raise a hand (heavy weight, kettlebell, whatever) if you want to learn to lift or improve upon your form in a supportive environment, get a kickass workout, and raise money for an amazing cause all at one time 🙋🏼‍♀️🙋🏾‍♀️🙋🏽‍♀️._
•
@betinagozo and @ladieswholiftchi are teaming up to do just that.
•
If you know @betinagozo you know that she is not only one of the best trainers out there-she literally wrote the guide on women’s strength training-but that she has the biggest heart to go along with all that talent. Betina has started @dancewithmweyne which serves to make a difference in the lives of the underserved population of children and adults with disabilities, and has been out of the field doing amazing work to better the lives of these people. And now she has started her own charity to help them even further._
•
On October 21st Betina and I will be hosting an all female strength training workshop and class to continue to support her efforts, along with YOUR efforts to get better and stronger._
•
Head to the link in my bio, or to the @dancewithmweyne page to sign up, check out the other events Betina is hosting throughout the week, and to learn more about the cause! If you can’t come to the event-you can still donate-every bit helps, every bit counts!

I have heard very few fitness journey stories (at least from women) that do not include some type of anxiety surrounding eating, getting workouts in, or generally just not feeling like you’re doing enough. That at some point during your work towards bettering yourself you got too caught up, and suddenly the things that were meant to make you feel better about yourself were making you feel worse._
•
Been there 🙋🏼‍♀️ done that🙋🏼‍♀️🙋🏼‍♀️hated it 🙋🏼‍♀️🙋🏼‍♀️🙋🏼‍♀️. Vacations, celebrations, regular nights out with friends were causing me so much anxiety that by the end of it, all that was left of the occasion was this anxiety itself and not the memories of whatever was actually happening._
•
Reflecting on my sisters wedding this past weekend has me so happy that I found and fought my way out of this. Mostly through tons of trial and error and learning that what you consistently do will always beat what you do every once in a while._
•
I worked out one day-not all weekend._
I ate the dinner and drank all the champagne._
I missed the cake the night before so I had it for breakfast the next day (carrot cake-very good)._
I have amazing memories from the entire weekend that have nothing to do with fitness or food or goals or work._
•
There are no magic words or pieces of advice other than to say if this relates to you, know that the anxiety isn’t worth it, but the fight to find YOUR balance is. #transformationtuesday

A celebration that was as amazing as you are my big sister-a beautiful wedding, bride, and a perfect night.
