Ever have one of those days when there just isn’t enough “makeup concealer” to hide all those unsightly imperfections?

“Transformations Don’t Occur Overnight.”
As a certified personal trainer to women for over two decades, I can confidently say that the results you desire are directly affected by the amount of energy and dedication you invest in your training program.

“Super Mama Syndrome”
Do you ever have those days where you plan to get it all done ~~ only to discover that you can’t even cross off the first item on your to-do list? I certainly do! I map out a grand list of things I aim to accomplish for the day. I even try to estimate how […]
“My Line In The Sand.”
Seeing my baby girl ~~ my only girl ~~ in that wedding dress ~~ just made my heart melt. Suddenly all those “mama moments” (as I have often called them) came flooding back to memory ~~ fun ones, growing ones, learning ones, difficult ones ~~ they were all there in a single breath. As […]

But here in Southern California, our summer has decided not to give way to a beckoning fall, but rather remain with us for much longer. Those of you residing nearby know what I am talking about ~~ 90 […]
