Showing you pity doesn't do you any favors.

Whenever you're making an important decision, first ask if it gets you closer to your goals or farther away.

Let's just say I believe in healthy love.

Everybody needs a fan, and the support and the encouragement. We're human beings; that is an essential part of the equation. When that fan is not there and when you're in a situation that triggers you on a historical level, you behave impulsively. You can destroy years worth of work professionally, personally, in a moment of being triggered by that.

Don't blame anyone or anything for your situation or problems. When you do that, you are saying that you are powerless over your own life—which is utter crap. An empowering step to reclaiming your life is taking responsibility.

Fitness to me isn't about a crunch or a push up, it's about taking your power back.

I want you to feel like you're going to die.
