LOVE this! I'm doing a cartwheel each day, so I don't forget. And I'm with you on the headstands—not easy. Thanks for the lift this Monday morning. :)

Oooooh!! A cartwheel?!? I love this! I was just thinking about cartwheels and wondering if I could learn to do one. As always, you inspire me again and again to try new brave things!!

My kids flip out every time! They can't believe I can do a cartwheel. It makes me laugh; they are so surprised and impressed. LOL. Thank you for inspiring me to lead and stay brave.

I've been brushing my teeth in the lowest possible squat I can manage for about a year now & will be continuing that. I have also occasionally done a "1 min hang" but I keep removing my pull-up bar from my doorway - I'll be putting that back up. I'm also adding back in my wall-assisted handstand(s) after each workout. I find it fun & keep forgetting it.

Side note: I've "assigned" my mom a shortlist of moves & "required" that she text when completed. She even had her husband call to verify and sent a picture of her kitty coach making sure she's done it. It's just a few squats, push-ups from her knees, balancing on each leg and getting up & down from the floor 3-5 times. Takes minutes & makes us both smile when she texts.

You are such a badass human and daughter!! I love all of this so much!! I intended to hang more last year, but never quite got the hang of it (groan). It's wild how these little things add up though!!

Oh my goodness, I love every word of this! I have finally started taking my vitamins, which means I have to drink a giant glass of water with breakfast each day. It feels like such a powerfully value-layered win! We are gonna be so hydrated this year! And we are gonna be so wise with all of our journaling! I can’t wait to see you and celebrate everything on March 13!
