What is ONE thing you could do today that would make it the best day of your week??⚡️ - Monday’s used to be THE worst guys. Usually clocking into a job at the break of dawn, with no direction, overall confused at what I was supposed to do & who to be. See when my dream of being a musician shifted out of the picture...I was pretty dang lost. But EVEN in the midst of my hustle season to be able to go fulltime with a job I FINALLY found passion for once again- (One of the hardest seasons of my life mind you) I was able to choose JOY. I was able to wake up on Monday morning MOTIVATED af & ready to grind- Back then, what I didn’t realize, was that having a PURPOSE & vision for where I was going; something to work towards... THAT was it! - You don’t need to BE anywhere in your life to choose joy. You simply need to know who you want to be & where you’re going. You have to have a HOPE for your future. & no matter how early you had to get up, or how much work you have ahead of you... That VISION-will drive you to get there. - So my goal everyday THESE days?? <What will make today GREAT?> And then I’m enjoying every step of the journey. Trusting this path. And livin’ it UP along the way. - My thing today?!?👇🏽 A REALLY good cup of coffee😂 No seriously. {changed up my usual order of a small americano to a coco-milk cappuccino & boy oh boy does @madcapcoffee know how to make an INCREDIBLE one. I knew I could trust them by their logo 😏⚡️👏🏽} - So tell me below cause I really wanna know!!! *& remember it DOESN’T have to be earth-shattering* What ONE thing, would make today the best day of the week?!?👇🏽 . . . . . #teamwholehearted #macapcoffee #madcap #madcapcoffeecompany #coffeecoffeecoffee #cappucinno #madcaproasters #grandrapidsblogger #grandrapidscoffee #grandrapidsmi #coffeegrind #lovegr #Lovegrandrapids #localcoffee #localcoffeeshop #baristagram #baristagirl #coffeesnob #coffeesnobs #coffeeshops #coffeegrams #latteart #exploremoretoday #traveldiary_aroundtheworld #girlswhotravelsolo #nomadlifestyle #thestoked #adventurers (at Downtown Market Grand Rapids) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2enp2HBJJU/?igshid=1fxjnabv0t3ki

Have you ever gone apple picking🍎, pumpkin carving🎃, donut eating🍩, made apple cider to drink along with homemade dipped caramel apples🍏, AND roasted pumpkin seeds...all in one day?! - I never have😂, (until yesterday) and (even though I didn’t eat the donuts) #glutenfreeproblems ...I think this was our fall-y-est fall yet.🍁 pretty much crushed it.👊🏽 - Perks that I got to do it all with this girl (& drag our hubs along to take the pics #instahusband 🙊) - Have you guys done any “fall-y” stuff yet?! (I bet nobody can out fall us😂) . . . . . #teamwholehearted #teamroottorise #fallfestivities #fallishere #applepicking #applepickingseason #appleorchard #pumpkincarvings #pumpkinpatchphotoshoot #pumpkineverything #pumpkinspiceeverything #fallcolors🍁🍂 #falltimefun #fallshenanigans #pumpkinpatches #husbandgoals #chicagoadventures (at Kuipers Family Farm) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpMv0ECBIVz/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=17hhkw478i0w4

I weigh a lot. Right now, I think about 158/160lbs?? (Not so sure Bc it’s been awhile since I weighed in) I’m 5’9” and feel amazing almost every day.💃🏼 ———> so can we talk about weight real quick??? I’m truly thankful for the scales that have gotten me here.Yet also thankful that I don’t care anymore- what that number reads. I think the problem most of us have - that I had- is the emotional attachment TO the scale. When in all reality- numbers are just numbers. They help us track progress. that’s it. Bigger is not bad NOR good. It’s just what it is. —————————— I used to be OBSESSED with the scale- Bc all I wanted was to see that number go down. and because of that, I had a STRONG hate & sensitivity towards scales, for a long time. **But without the scale- I stopped tracking my progress, and suddenly I was up 8 lbs from the last time I could remember....and all that stress came back.😳 <When, like I said. It’s just a number.> What I realized is that I may have gained muscle. (Weighs more than fat) and the bigger issue that I REALLY needed to address- was the extreme emotional reaction I had- TO the scale. ——————— ive learned that using it obsessively can be harmful. Yet throwing it in the fireplace out of spite & anger can be JUST as dangerous. There has to be a balance. And I think I’ve finally found it.💗 I just had to disconnect from the emotions of it all. Can we all just stop being afraid of- and obsessing over the scale?? YOU are beautiful because you are you. If you want to be healthy- the scale might help you get there. But it doesn’t define your beauty.

We had to take a sweaty mirror selfie after doing a little at home HIIT workout sesh together💪🏽 this girl ROCKS. Always living spontaneously when she's around 😍 we also made molasses milk lattes that were SO yummy!!! Yay for workouts+coffee+chatting. It's all ya need in life💓☕️ #teamwholehearted #teamroottorise

WE MADE IT👏🏽🙏🏼🤩🎉🙌🏽 I almost can’t believe I’m saying it... But we made it. This MASSIVE goal we’ve all (plus a few others not pictured here- @rileymcq 😘#loveyoulongtime ) been pushing for... IS HAPPENING FOR REAL.✨ There are already SO MANY long weeks of grinding behind us & many more to come... But tonight I’m letting it sink in. That WE, #teamwholehearted OFFICIALLY MADE IT TO OUR GOAL😭 - If you’ve been praying for us, thinking of us, or sending any kind of positivity our way, THANK YOU❤️ I appreciate it more than you’ll ever know. - I shared more in my stories tonight more about what this means, so check it out if you’re a lil bit confused😉 But I just want to get something straight with y’all... 👉🏽THIS platform is absolutely incredible. The power it has to connect people is unlike ANYTHING else we’ve ever known in this world... It BROUGHT me to these beautiful humans in this picture. It’s GAVE me a PLACE to share my journey of health & wellness & life with y’all- every single day. It’s helped me BUILD a business that’s now earning me a FULLTIME income. So first off, That is all SO freaking cool, & im #gratefulaf But secondly, This is still a highlight reel- I try to sprinkle in AS MUCH realness as possible, But I want YOU to know... That if you’re looking at me & thinking “wow how’d she become so successful overnight” or “how is she living this life?” or ANYTHING along those lines, Please know, what’s NOT pictured here: are the moments of doubt. The nights where I literally worked myself sick-bc I was OBSESSED with the goal-(in an unhealthy way) The night where I became physically ILL & had to learn how to slow down & take a break, to let go & let GOD do his thing, (I’m pretty stubborn if ya can’t tell..🙊) Or the moments where I cried over thinking what this COULD DO for our life & our team-or when I thought it would happen sooner & was HEARTBROKEN when I thought we lost our chance...what YOU don’t see is all the hustle that it took to get here. It’s taken YEARS. That’s the honest truth-but I also wouldn’t trade a SECOND of it for where it’s brought us today....Cause THIS is what can happen, if you put your head down & GET TO WORK👊🏽 (at Frankfort, Michigan) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5KCoV3Btcg/?igshid=q40oa8e8xzi
