I am thankful for...

Me and my sister and best friend, Paige

I am blessed! I feel that the word "thankful" is almost an understatement to describe the past 11 months of my life.

I am thankful for...
  • Family- I am the oldest of 4 kids, and my brother and sisters are my best friends. We all live in Austin, and I could not ask for a better support group. Our parents are rock-solid. Dependable, loving, comforting, honest, and genuine. I can turn to my mom and dad in any given situation and know they will guide me in the right direction. I am loved!
  • Friends- I pretty much consider my friends in Austin my family too. Specifically, Whitney is one of my best friends. She has been with me through good times and bad and always stood strong. Thank you for being my ShowoutBestFriendSisterGoddess!
  • Faith- Life is bigger than what I experience daily. I could not have made it through these last 11 months without my faith. Miracles happen. Believe it!
  • CrossFit Central clients- WOW! I met today with one of my boot campers and I realized even more so how much I love the people I coach daily. They are not just my "boot campers" but they are my friends. People I can turn to for advice and direction.
  • CrossFit Central family- Never did I dream that I would have found my dream job at age 28. Every day I get up and have the ability to impact someone's life, improve my own life, and surround myself with individuals who truly have my best interest at heart. My eyes tear up at times just thinking about how blessed I am right now.
  • my health- Praise Jesus for CrossFit and Paleo nutrition
  • my singleness- I have learned so much about myself over the past year. Digging deep and finding out who I am as just me.
  • my house.
  • freedom.
  • my beat up car.
  • Austin- pretty much the greatest city to live ever.
  • crazy, curly hair.
  • being a showout.
  • skinny ritas- completely random thing to be thankful for, but seriously, they are the best.
Happy Thanksgiving!!!

What are you thankful for?

Mom & Daughter



CrossFit Central is a family. I truly mean that with all my heart. Two of the women in Relentless Boot Camp in the 8:30AM MWF Lake Pointe class pose with their daughters after a workout.

Why use the excuse "I'll start working out after the holidays." Be different. Set an example for your family and friends. Power through the holidays. These ladies exemplify "family" to me and I am honored to coach them. They get up each day and set a precedent for everyone they come in contact. Keep up the awesome, showout work!!!

Join the CrossFit Central family at Deep Eddy park on Thanksgiving Day at 6:00AM for a FREE Relentless boot camp workout. A 5K Fun Run will follow the workout at CrossFit Central on Burnet starting at 9:00AM. Bring a can good to the Fun Run for the local food drive donation.

Who is coming to the FREE workout and/or Fun Run?

Plan of Action

"A goal without a plan is just a wish." - Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Quotes are emailed to me about every other day from Top Achievement. The quote above was sent to me this morning. Bam. Slap in the face--that statement could not be expressed more perfectly. It made me go back and look at my goals and see where I am and if I am staying on track. I can honestly say I am taking action daily to achieve my goals, but I can absolutely do more. I must admit that I am most focus on the career goals right now. 1 day at a time. Pressing forward. Focusing on the big picture.

Do you have a plan of action for your goals?
