“You're ready when you decide you're ready, and nobody gets to decide that for you.”

“The ‘I’m not enough’ story has been installed by somebody else. Part of taking action is learning to engage with that dominant voice in a way that serves you expanding into the better parts of yourself.”

“Recognize what is within your control and what is not. You control your thoughts and actions, which is a lot! Resist the urge to view what is not within your control as an obstacle to getting what you want.”

“You can put time and energy into all the reasons why it won't work out, or throw your energy into all the reasons why you're gonna make sure it works out.”

“There are only so many hours in the day. A minute takes 60 seconds to pass no matter what you do. But, you get to control how you experience those 60 seconds. I’d rather invest time in maintaining a healthy body so I can enjoy more time feeling good, and less time feeling bad.”

“Everything is easy, and everything is hard. You just choose where you experience the easy and the hard. Fast food is ‘easy’ in the beginning because you access it quickly and don’t have to prepare it. But, then it’s really hard to digest and makes you feel bad. Quality foods are ‘harder’ to prepare, but they’re easy to digest and make life easier because you feel good.”

“Cooking is an act of self love. It is a gift you give your present and future self. It's a promise you make to yourself and your loved ones: ‘I’m gonna show up as the best version of myself. I'm gonna be ready for whatever comes our way’.”
