Honoring every piece
Sometimes you have to be your own motivation. In those moments when you find yourself slipping and it feels like you'll never get fully back on track I've learned that nothing motivates me more than reminding myself where I've been and what I'm capable of. This...
Honor Where You’re At
I felt like shit about myself earlier. Questioning my appearance. Pissed that I lost 2 inches in my thighs and 1.5 in my hips. I felt gross and annoyed and just ugh. Pushed to go to the gym anyway. Sort of in a fog the entire time but intentionally focusing on the...
Half The Strength
No one ever talks about how mentally difficult it is when you find yourself back in the gym and only having half the strength you used to. It's a serious struggle. In an instant you can find yourself feeling dumb, embarrassed, weak, angry, frustrated. "How did I let...

Office Space
"Jamie, you live alone and your clients are virtual... why do you pay for an office space??" Well, "because I can" is my initial response to that question. BUT I'll give you a little more insight on how this choice helps me and could possibly help you too! I have a...
I am Happy
I am happy. In a totally different way than ever before.
Falling In Love and Being In Love
There is a difference between falling in love and BEING in love. Falling in love is easy. People do it all the time. Sure, it can be scary sometimes but it's not a hard thing to do. But being in love is a totally different animal. I don't mean the difference between...
from me to you
I started writing these pages long before I knew what my life really could be. Maybe I’ve written it into existence, maybe I haven’t…either way this is a collection of my life. All of the stages and everything along the way. Thank you for following along.
