If you’re new to my page or you’ve been here a while I thought I’d take a second to share a little bit about myself... I love this woman you see in the pictures on this page. But for years I struggled with feeling unworthy, feeling like I wasn't enough, feeling like an outsider, feeling like something was wrong with me. . Those feelings sent me spiraling around body image, food addictions, associative behavior states with alcohol and drugs, constant thrill-seeking behavior and a lot of unnecessary drama that came as a byproduct of being in constant inner pain. . I had to wake up to the harm I was inflicting on myself in a very real way in my early 30's when I became very sick from total adrenal exhaustion. . Reconstructing myself took a lot of work, patience, powerful mentors, guides, study, and ACTION. . But none of it would have been possible without the moment of choice, when I decided to take responsibility for my decisions and their impact on my life. . Some of the most basic decisions I made (and make daily still) were about how i treated my body (food/exercise/sleep), and how I talked to myself internally. . Making these decisions and choices cultivates a sense of self respect. A sense of knowing you can trust yourself to do what is needed to thrive. . Because you feel better, you feel stronger, you feel empowered. . That's how it was for me. I always had that greatness inside, I had just been struggling with my shadows. But importantly, that struggle had tested me. That struggle had shown me what mattered, and I chose to be healthy, to step forward, to own my behavior and actions and keep going. . This page, and me, your coach and friend, are about so much more than food. Or a workout plan. Or any one thing. . It's about our personal choice to consciously become the best version of ourselves, through ACTION that is aligned with our personal integrity. . I’ve been told by “experts” for years to make my page about “one thing”so I would get “more followers” but I have to keep it real. It’s not one thing. It’s not perfect. . Just wanted to share...I know I'm not the only one who's had a struggle to get to a good place. You're never alone. xo

Damn. Straight wisdom in this quote. Thank you @kirstygodso 🙌🏼 . We’re so often tempted to buy “things” that we think will make us more desirable, happier, more beautiful - but really it’s the experiences we have, the insights we gain, and the wisdom we cultivate that make our inner beauty truly shine and create the path to happiness. . Expensive clothes and shoes and accessories? Fancy cruise and fancy house? Enjoyable. ✅ . Taking care of your body and living a long life capable of everything you want to do? Priceless. ✅ . Lessons learned through reflection on mistakes that shape the person you are and the character you develop? Priceless. ✅ . Experiences and memories formed with people and in places that expand your thinking, open your heart and show you what you value? Priceless. ✅ . No matter where you go, no matter what you buy, you take YOURSELF with you. Your real riches lie within ❤️

I see the New Year as an opportunity to renew my vows to myself, and I invite you to do the same. . As we approach the start of this new decade, I’m reflecting on the choices I make in these final few days of the year as a kind of ritual that’s preparing me and setting my intentions for what’s to come. . I am imagining who I am as I transition through 42 to 52. I picture a healthy, vibrant, creative, wildly successful and deeply fulfilled graceful human who sleeps well, eats well, moves a lot and has awareness of her inner state so she maintains her equilibrium and harmony. . I envision deepening my relationships, inviting in new ones, and letting go of those things, attitudes and even people who are no longer in alignment with the path I’m on. Making the most of my time, and being present. Speaking up, and speaking my truth. Finding unique new ways to unfurl my creative gifts and expand my reach in the ways I fulfill my mission. . During these preparatory days in the final countdown of the last decade, I am taking actions that align with these intentions: Making time for stillness and quiet, making time and space for movement- both structured and unstructured, finding nourishing food, spending quality time with friends and people I love, doing creative activities and of course - getting some awesome sleep. . I’d love to hear what intentions you are setting for yourself in the coming decade and how you’re using these last few days of the decade to prepare! . Make it a renewal of your vows to yourself! At the end of every day, it comes down to you and you ❤️ . For more, see my 2020 story highlight. . . 📷 @juliemagnussen . . . . . #newyearsintentions #thebettyrocker #youaredestinedforgreatness

Don’t let other people’s expectations run your life. We’ve all been there - we want to please the people we care for. We secretly worry we won’t be loved or accepted if we do things our own way, or fear that unless we follow a prescribed path we will fail. . I succumbed to the pressure of being the oldest and went off to a college I hated to do what I thought I was “supposed” to do, but it made me unhappy, unfocused and not truly present to where I was. I remember how scared I was when I told my parents I was dropping out - but making that choice allowed me to forge my own path and learn about life another way that was right for me at that time. . This post isn’t about college being good or bad, I went back later in my life to learn more several times, but i did it when it was right for me, and it made a huge difference to what I got out of it. . The point is, don’t base your choices on what other people think. Even when they love you, they’re just seeing you through a filter of their own beliefs, which aren’t necessarily right for you. Thank them for caring, and keep on doing you. . Maybe everyone at work or in your family gives you the stink eye because of your “weird” health foods? Or the fact that you make time to do a workout? Let them look. They’re also going to see you change, and be affected by the truth of your actions. Never doubt your ability to impact others. . How you live, when you live authentically, is an inspiration. . There isn’t a manual for the perfect way to “be you” because you’re literally writing it by living. . Any “bad” chapters are setting you up for great insights, better relationships, more appreciation, and deeper happiness. . Keep kicking ass, stay open, keep experimenting, and always be yourself. 💜🦄 . . #bettyrockerlovesyou #thebettyrocker #quotestoliveby
