Tryout and a reminder of inputs vs outcomes
Having a super proud moment right now and car reflection. Anybody else have car reflections? I watched part of my daughter's gymnastics competitive team tryout today. She's been doing gymnastics for a few years and has an ear‑to‑ear smile every time we pick her up. As one might expect, it's normal to feel a bit nervous when you're doing something for the first time. Last week she was pretty sure she did not want to try out which was a tricky parenting decision: should we honor the fact that she doesn't want to do it, even though it seems inconsistent with her day‑to‑day actions and attitudes toward gymnastics? Or trying to decipher if as a parent, can we recognize the bigger pattern of the normal and common fear of stepping out of a comfort zone, facing the unknown of something new. A friend shared this week when i was wrestling with these ideas. It's not our job to always keep our kids comfortable it is our job to help them get comfortable with being uncomfortable and working through it. That landed for me. In the moment, those things aren't always obvious. Interestingly, we didn't mention it much for the rest of the week after her expression of not wanting to do it. On her last regular gymnastics practice we talked to the coach to get more information and become familiar with the idea. Then she looked at brand‑new leotards; we bought her her first brand-new one for tryouts. And this morning, I asked her if she was excited or nervous or how she was feeling, and she quickly answered excited. It was just like, today you would have had no idea that she didn't want to do it a week ago. Fewf, our instinct to keep the tryouts panned out. But now I'm going to circle back because I titled this focusing on inputs versus outcomes. The truth is, making the competitive team is pretty competitive, and I have no idea what the odds are for her. I certainly know that not everybody makes the team. I want to inspire an attitude of focusing on the inputs rather than the outcomes.

Do you listen to the words? 🎶
When I do listen I often find the words aren't very inspiring most of the time. So I don't. I like music based on the beats. Haha but I do love finding songs were I like the beat and the words. Let's make Shift playlist ... fav songs that are both catchy and inspire growth I let my parents choose there song for my wedding. My dad chose eye of the tiger ... umm tricky I thought ... but of course my bestie (they solve all problems) ...you do know there is a beautiful Jenn Grant version eh? So below my father daughter dance. 👇

What is your non body size reason for moving your body?
On a family time week! And my 3yo little guy graduated from the bunny hill today and big girl (she's just turned 7) rockin' her blues. But I was thinking today as I was carrying my toddler wearing ski boots while walking in my ski boots and with all the awkward things. This is why I work out. So I can carry the awkward sh$* and have "des grandes aventures" (great big adventures) as my son calls them 💜 Share your NON body size reason for moving that body. I've quiet this week and so many new members! A personal hello is coming when I'm next on my desktop. 👇
