Razzetti tells a story about the voices you listen to.

A group of frogs travelling along when two fall into a deep ditch. All the other frogs gather around the pit and called down “you are as good as dead”. The two frogs ignored the comments and tried to jump out of the pit. The others kept telling them that it was “mission impossible”. Finally one of the frogs paid attention to the voices above and gave up. She feel deeper and died. The other frog jumped as hard as she could, with the crowd yelling for her to stop her useless attempts. She bounced even higher and finally made it out!! Did you not hear us the frogs asked. I’m short of hearing and I thought you were cheering me on with encouragement to jump out. There’s a suggestion that we are the average of the 5 people we spend most thought time with. Listening to too many voices with unchallenged dedication, can cloud our judgement. Connect with your instinct 💕

My contribution is a union of nutrition, mindfulness, meditation, breathwork & movement intertwined with behaviour change and how it impacts a life worth living.

As a health and fitness professional, I want to shift the paradigm toward one of self-love and self-care instead of an aesthetic insecurity-based industry. Let’s move away from the trail of being overweight, body shape dissatisfaction, the daily dose of pharmaceutical and social drugs, persistent envy, unhappiness, anxiety, depression, and a life full of pressure to keep up, skip steps, and rush.

Living without awareness and intention creates pressures that we are not doing, we are not moving fast enough, as bosses, workers, weekend warriors, friends, lovers, parents, siblings, or grandparents. We have to be able and willing to step outside the pull of unhealthy and unhealthful cultural norms and make the critical space to do our meaningful thinking.

The first thing I need people to take in is if they are going to work with me or read my work because for me this re-frames the core of moving through all obstacles we have around stress, rush, health, weight, etc … The very blantant truth is that living under the guise of society’s expectations - is not living.

We have been fed a narrative that stepping outside or away from norms is the wrong way to exist and this narrative furthers unhappiness, unhealthiness, pressure, and a life that is too fast to enjoy.

Wherever we are, this is life—it’s happening right now, and I’ve decided that I am not going to rush through it and I invite you to join me today …
