What does wellness mean to me?

For me, it comes down to playing well, eating well, and resting well.
 

Playing well
Movement has always been one of the ways I feel most like myself. I love being outside, challenging myself, learning new skills, and feeling strong and capable in my body. These days you’re most likely to find me on a mountain bike, skiing, strength training, or simply getting outside to play.
 

Eating well
I’ve been a vegetarian throughout my adult life. While vegetarianism isn’t something I necessarily promote for everyone, it sparked a lifelong interest in nutrition and how food supports our health, energy, and performance. My philosophy is fairly simple: eat real food, enjoy it, and don’t make it more complicated than it needs to be. I love experimenting and creating in the kitchen.
 

Resting well
I’ve been a student, career professional, competitive athlete, business owner, and mom. I know firsthand that balance isn’t something we achieve once and then keep forever. It changes as life changes. Making room for sleep, recovery, quiet time, relationships, work, family, and the things we love takes intention—and sometimes a little compromise.

For me, wellness is having the health, strength, energy, and resilience to be present in my life and to keep doing the things I love.

That’s what I want for the people I coach, too.
