Not There Yet, But Proud of the Direction
I don’t often share my health journey on social media. In fact, I’ve kept most of it pretty private. Part of that is because I never wanted my journey to make someone else feel like they were falling behind in theirs. We all have different starting points, different challenges, and different timelines. Comparison can steal so much joy, and I’ve never wanted to contribute to that. But I wanted to share this here because this feels like a safe space. And if there is someone newer in their journey, feeling discouraged, frustrated, or wondering if they’ll ever get where they want to be, maybe this is for you. Three years ago, I traveled to Ireland. At the time, I was struggling in ways that most people didn’t see. The truth is, I hated my body. I hated seeing photos of myself. And if I’m being completely honest, I didn’t like myself very much either. I had lost weight before and gained it back. More than once. Every time it happened, I felt like I had failed. I carried a lot of shame, frustration, and disappointment with me. I worried about airplane seatbelts. I worried about fitting comfortably in spaces. I worried about how I looked and what people thought. Honestly I felt just puffy and uncomfortable. On the other hand while I was struggling in so many ways, I had a lot going for me. I have an amazing partner and friend group. After taking a risk and securing a new job, I felt I could have more balance and my me a stronger priority. When I got home, I made a decision, I would no longer be the last priority to myself. I decided to make my health a priority. That led me to working with a nutritionist, a trainer, an endocrinologist, and finally pulling the trigger to reach out to a coach I had been following for over a year. I leaned into accepting support instead of trying to do everything on my own. The change didn’t happen overnight. It happened through hundreds of ordinary decisions repeated over and over again. Today, I don’t measure my worth by the scale, and I don’t measure my happiness by it either.

THIS!!! So encouraging and exactly what I needed to read. Thank you for sharing and awesome job working on making you a priority!
Thankful Thursday
So thankful for all the stretching today. But I was thinking or more my mind was wondering while doing them. Its funny how I thought I was healthy back when I smoking, drinking Pepsi all day and eating cookies or chocolate bars to get me through the day. But when I started eating actuall food,drinking water and quit smoking I thought I was unhealthy. I thought that just because of the scale. I thought I had to be skinny to be healthy and that was it. Im so glad I dont feel that way anymore. And I have changed my lifestyle. I have come so far from that young woman and I still have growing and learning to do. Thanks for listening to thoughts during mobility.

You are so fantastic , Katherine! Great job making so many changes that benefit you and your family, and thank you for being so willing to share your journey. You are a true inspiration!
My 1st Murph
Super proud of myself before today I didn’t know what a Murph was. The only Murph I know is @Heather Murphy 😝. Not sure if I did it correctly but I did it. I did a 1 mile walk/run then completed 110 dumbbell Rows, 200 push-ups, 300 air squats and then my second walk/run. I broke it down as you see on the paper with 30 second rest between reps. I’m sure that’s not how a Murph is done, but I am proud to have accomplished my Murph 😝

Way to go Melinda!
WINSday!!!
Shouting out one of my newer clients, @Allie Patton !!! 👏🔥 This mama of TWO came to P&E about 1.5 months ago after her twin sister (okay… still a little jealous 😂) shared us with her. Allie jumped in as a Pivot-level client and hit the ground RUNNING. Postpartum, preparing to go back to work, and wanting REAL change — not a quick fix. I’m beyond grateful she trusted me to walk alongside her. She is down 24 POUNDS since February 13, 2026. 🤯 No magic pill. No shortcuts. Just the same proven game plan I use with ALL clients: ✨ The Big Four first — protein, calories, water, movement ✨ Prioritizing mindset + sleep ✨ Filling gaps with quality supplementation ✨ Following Thrive30 strength training ✨ Tracking her food & water ✨ Showing up CONSISTENTLY And the best part… She told me the other day she is PROUD of herself. ❤️ THAT is what this is all about. More energy. More confidence. Keeping up with her kids, her career, and actually FEELING the difference. Let’s hear your wins 👇 Scale wins, non-scale wins, InBody changes — drop them below! OR tell me… Why should someone jump into our next challenge? 📅 Starts April 13 📚 Education week begins April 6 What’s your April focus after March? If you’re ready to start… message me. 💌

@Melinda McNair You totally sound like a veteran thriver, Melinda! Progress over perfection!
Words of encouragement!
Hi everyone! I thought it would be great to start a thread about what Ashlynn and Pivot and Execute mean to you. Maybe two or three things you appreciate, or how being here has transformed you. I will go first! I have always hated lifting, but Ashlynn’s routines changed that! The routines are effective, efficient, and challenging! Additionally, and more importantly, Ashlynn has really helped change my self talk, which has trickled down to helping me understand I am worth investing time and care into. It has truly been life giving! Lastly, my teen daughter LOVES Ashlynn! She hears the work outs and always comments on how positive Ashlynn is. Also, we have the privilege of playing soccer on the same club that her boys do, so we see her from time to time. Ashlynn is always so warm and welcoming to her and it’s a huge encouragement to my daughter! I love that my daughter has someone like Ashlynn to help her feel confident and loved. I joined almost a year ago and I am so glad I did! The scale hasn’t changed much yet, but I know my mind has and the rest will follow.
