I get it, you’re not “done” but don’t forget…

As far as you still want to go, you’re already standing where someone else wishes they could be.

Members, this is your month … Invite her to stand beside you.

Book your bestie 🥰

Who believed in you before you believed in yourself?

As a high school teacher, I often had to nudge capable students into my advanced level classes because they couldn’t yet see what I could see in them.

I’ve been on the other side of that, too.

This place wouldn’t exist without my husband literally DRAGGING me through my fears. My coach matter of factly states next steps I’ve not yet even thought could be in my realm of possibilities.

Sometimes, it’s someone else’s belief that gives us the courage to believe in ourselves.

So think about it:

Who planted a seed in you? And who might need you to plant one in them?

This has been on my mind a good so I went old school and blogged. (🔗 in the profile)

In retrospect, this is the spirit I want for Book Your Bestie 2026.

Truth be told I know our members rarely need a work out partner per say but I do know many of y’all were so scared to walk into our doors because …

“I’m not strong enough.”
“I’m too old to be new at something.”
“I’m gonna look like an idiot”

But a bestie said, you got this and I’ll be there the whole time. I gotchu.

And that small nudge ended being a catalyst for transformation.

You’re stronger, healthier, and feeling more alive because someone else carried the belief before you were ready.

Pay it forward 😘🖤

“Gross, I don’t want to look like you.” My response…⬇️⬇️

Don’t worry. You never will. 🎤

The idea that having visible muscle, obvious definition, and lots of vascularity was an accident that happened because I walked into the gym 3-4 days a week w a loosely constructed “arm day/leg day” plan and a roughly 80/20 diet is laughable.

If you don’t want to look like me, you’re in luck! Because this was a 365 day all in effort in the gym and in the kitchen for YEARS.

Hon, if this is gross to you, I’m okay with that too. The only person that has to love this body is me.

But if you’re not lifting weights out of fear that you don’t have a say so as to how jacked you get, girl you’re completely wrong…

AND this likely why you’re missing out on results you’re hunting down by “losing 10 more lbs” again. 🙄

The women we coach at sweat, they aren’t looking to replicate what I’m doing.

They love muscle. They love how it makes them feel. They know they’re strong and resilient and they want their physique to say that too.

They love adventures and they love knowing they can say YES to every opportunity bc their bodies are capable.

If that’s you PLEASE stop approaching training fearful of “accidental muscle mass” 😂😂

Every woman who’s ever transformed on any level will tell you the work and effort behind every new line they willed into existence.

Lift. Challenge yourself in the gym. Have fun creating exactly what YOU want to see. sweatlocal is here to educate and guide YOUR journey 😘



None of i

Instead of food guilt: “Tell the food where to go.”

* One celebration doesn’t undo months of 80/20 lifestyle.

* You don’t need to earn your food.

* You don’t need a detox.

* You don’t need extra cardio.

You simply need to get baseline back to your 80/20 - lifting, moving, eating protein, and following your normal routine.

And unless you’re nursing a wicked hangover, all those extra calories should make for a super fun week of strength training with plenty of energy in those muscles for extra reps, pumps, plates.

No guilt.
No punishment.
Just return to home base.

Love you. 😘
