My sister would have been 40 today. She passed away on March 7, 2015, and for whatever reason, I made the “mistake” today of going back and looking through her Facebook. That hit me a lot harder than I expected. I’ve always thought I handled her birthday and the anniversary of her passing pretty well over the years. But today made me wonder if maybe I didn’t handle it as well as I thought. Maybe I just got really good at blocking out some of the feelings and carrying on. Seeing her pictures, reading old posts, seeing her name and little pieces of a life that feels both so long ago and like yesterday brought a lot of it back. Grief is strange like that. You can go months or years feeling like you’re okay, and then something small opens a door you thought you had closed. A picture. A song. A birthday. A memory. And suddenly the sadness is right there again. But I also think that’s part of loving someone and losing them. You don’t necessarily “get over” it. You just learn how to carry it while continuing to live your life. There are going to be hard days. There are going to be moments when sadness wins for a little while. And I think it’s okay to let yourself feel those moments instead of always trying to push them away. Then you keep going. You work. You laugh. You raise your family. You build things. You make memories. You appreciate the people who are still here. And you carry a little piece of the people you’ve lost with you through all of it. Life keeps moving, and somehow we find a way to move with it. Happy 40th birthday, sis. Wish you were here. ❤️

After some of the conversations we’ve had in here the last couple of days, I think this weekend we need something a little different. This one isn’t about calories burned, reps, steps or how hard you can push yourself. 50 POINTS — 30 MINUTES OF SILENCE Find somewhere you can be completely alone for 30 minutes. Outdoors if possible. No phone. No music. No podcast. No TV. No scrolling. No distractions. Just sit there. Think. Reflect. Breathe. Look around. Let your brain slow down for a little while. We spend almost every waking minute being stimulated by something. Give yourself 30 minutes where absolutely nothing is demanding your attention. 50 POINTS — 30 MINUTES OF STRETCHING & RECOVERY Spend another 30 minutes taking care of your body. Stretch. Work on your mobility. Foam roll. Breathe. Hit the areas that are tight and sore. Nothing intense. This is about slowing down and recovering. Do both and you’ve got 100 points. This weekend I’m challenging you to spend one hour doing absolutely nothing productive for anyone else. 30 minutes for your mind. 30 minutes for your body. You might be surprised how much you needed both.

For this check-in, I just want to see how everybody is doing and I want you to be as honest and transparent as possible. I had a buddy of mine tell me that his dad just died (yesterday). He is away in Quebec with his daughter‘s basketball team. His youngest daughter‘s birthday was yesterday when his father actually passed. He hasn’t told anybody because he does not want to disrupt what is going on around him. I have been checking on him throughout the day, but he seems good. I honestly feel more shaken up about it than he does. Not because I knew his father but because I care about the man. My friend. His father was not well for the last two years so I know he’s in a better place and that’s what my buddy keeps telling me. But I cannot help but think about my own and what it would be like to lose someone that I love around me. So in this check-in and it could be worth 1 million points or it could be worth 10 points. It doesn’t matter. I just want to check in on how everybody is doing. This is a place of community and of support. If you are going through something or if you wanna vent about something or if something pisses you off, please share it. I will say this… When I started this community, I was not sure how it would go, but I think a take away that I would highlight is the fact that I feel more and more comfortable sharing struggles, and successes equally. This isn’t a flex zone so to speak. I don’t expect any of us to have the same struggles or the same beliefs or the same successes or the same thoughts or the same processes. And I think that’s the beauty of this. We can disagree. We can be different. But we all suffer. And we all are elevated at our own times. So please just humor me and indulge me and share whatever is going on with your life good bad or indifferent… I appreciate you for reading all of this lol

First off… This challenge is NOT for the handful of you who show up every single day. You know who you are, and I appreciate the heck out of you. ❤️ This one is for everyone else. Worth 50 Points. I want one thing from you… Complete honesty. If you haven’t been posting consistently, I want to know why. Not the answer you think I want to hear. The real answer. Is it because: - You’re shy? - You don’t know what to post? - You feel awkward? - You don’t think anyone cares? - You think accountability groups are kind of cheesy? - You forget? - You’re worried about being judged? - You started strong and then fell off? - Something completely different? There is zero judgment here. In fact, your answer might completely change how we run this community going forward. So here’s your challenge: 👉 Reply to this post with the biggest reason you don’t participate consistently. Be honest. Be raw. One sentence or ten paragraphs—I don’t care. You’ll earn 50 points just for your honest response. Those 50 points alone could throw you right back into the race this week. I’m not asking this to call anyone out. I’m asking because I genuinely want to build a community that people want to be part of—not one they feel guilty about avoiding. So tell me the truth. What’s holding you back? 👇
