Sunday Story...Like a Baby

We all expect babies to sleep…a lot. We know they are growing, we know that they need sleep to be healthy. So what about you big babies? You need sleep too…and more than you are getting if the stories I hear are correct. We have talked about this before and here we go…

Sunday Story...183

This week, as many of you already know, was the opening of the CrossFit Games. This is an event I have had my eye on since last year. Last year I ended up 53rd in my age group in the world. This was not bad considering I really had no idea about what the competition was…

Sunday Story...Out of the Bucket

People are crazy-making sometimes. We hear it from all kinds of places, our friends, our relatives, our co-workers, our significant others and strangers. They say things that try to undermine your goals, they say things that ridicule your…

Sunday Story...paleo vs. Paleo

It appears Paleo (capitals) has become main stream. Dieticians and nutritionists are lining up on one side of the fence or the other. Some are for it and some are against it. We see medical doctors recommending it and others adamantly opposed. And now the food companies…

Sunday Story...What's Your Why?

I often get asked why I do some of things I do. Why do I insist on eating the way I eat? Why do I work out so hard? Why am I so committed and dedicated to teaching and helping people discover the fire in their bellies? Wouldn’t it be easier to eat the way…

Sunday Story…Paleo Pitfalls

You made the plunge and decided to go all in on the dare. Or maybe you are just dipping your toe in to find out how the water is. This is…

Sunday Story...A Double Dog Dare

I have to admit I have no idea what a “double dog dare” really is. It is something I remember my children saying…

Sunday Story...You Got to Move It

You got out of…

I am finding these times most interesting as we have been in heightened energy. I also find it exhilarating that the power of the masses to create change is unfolding in grand ways.  We have been experiencing intense opinions, views, ideologies, in the way of political 'stuff", even things related to religion, economics and more. It is amazing to watch how the 'shifting' of energy is taking place. There are…
