SATURDAY: pumpkin spice lattes and leisurely strolls through the autumn leaves. Haha jk!
⠀⠀
MY REAL SATURDAY: normal coffee, chasing a toddler through a Halloween store as he’s screaming about all the scary props and costumes, picking up the one million toy cars in my house, and woosaaa-ing every minute until nap time 🤪🤪🤪 Just keeping it real.

Hi if you’re new here! My name is Heather and it’s my passion to teach women how to lift and how to eat without all the BS rules. Like want to eat pizza? Girl me too and I do! Fitness is totally inclusive and is for every BODY! So here’s a few more things about me:
1️⃣ I’m blind in one eye (born this way)!
2️⃣ I’m a lifetime friend! Once we bond - you’ll know me forever even if we haven’t spoken in months or years.
3️⃣ My middle name is VanAusdal - a family name passed down to all the women.
4️⃣ I have two little boys (3 + 1).
5️⃣ My background is journalism! I did news for a few years and interned at The Today Show in college.
6️⃣ I’m that annoying person who wakes up happy and can spring into my day.
7️⃣ I have 1 brother - we’re best friends (hey @nicyp120183) and many amazing brothers/sister-in-laws.
8️⃣ I rarely cry but pretty much can count on some teary eyes during the national anthem 🤷🏼‍♀️
9️⃣ My biggest strength is being coachable!
Okay your turn. Share something with me to help me get to know YOU and your vibe.

WHERE ARE MY MONDAY PEOPLE? Monday’s are my favorite day of the week! It’s my “personal day” where I block off my whole calendar and go to yoga, run, grocery shop, do laundry - whatever!!! Weekends are way too chaotic with a 3 year old and 1 year old. I know you mamas feel me!
⠀⠀
Who else is a Monday person and if not what day is your fav?! Comment below! And also - what are you looking forward to this week?! ⤵️⤵️⤵️

“IF THE GRASS IS GREENER ON THE OTHER SIDE YOU CAN BET THE WATER BILL IS HIGHER” 😂😂😂
If there is ONE negative part about coaching it’s seeing strong amazing women compare themselves to others or basing their happiness on their appearance.
⠀⠀
Let me be your voice of reason today: you will not be any happier 10 or 20 pounds lighter. Having abs doesn’t equal unlimited smiles. You need to be content with who you are when your head hits the pillow at night and who you are when you wake up in the morning. Continue to strive towards your goals - but happiness is here RIGHT THIS SECOND if you’re able to receive it. Tag a friend who you admire below ⤵️

SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE A FRAUD IN THE HEALTH INDUSTRY. And I know a lot of you do too! Keep reading...
⠀⠀
Do you feel like a square peg trying to fit into a round hole when it comes to your wellness routine? Like there’s your friend Sarah crushing the vegan + yoga lifestyle and your other friend Nicole checking marathon after marathon off her bucket list. And then there’s you. Dessert loving, wine drinking, moment savoring YOU! Sure you dabble in healthy foods (spinach really isn’t that bad in smoothies!!!). You don’t mind lifting. But burgers and beers are definitely on your weekend list.
⠀⠀
I’m here to tell you I’m right there with you!!! Fitness is totally inclusive. You can have whatever piece of the healthy lifestyle you want. Just because you’re not ALL IN (hello balance) doesn’t mean you’re not healthy. Someone who munches on seeds and kale is not healthier or fitter than you. So you do you. Establish the eating routine and workout life that you love. The only way you fail is if you give up ✌🏻

My heart has been bursting open with love for 3 full years now since I gave birth to Lincoln. That’s 1,095 days of pure love (okay and some meltdowns on both our ends). I’m pretty sure there’s also 1,095 balloons on this wall. And yes - me and Nick blew up every single one and I hand strung this whole balloon garland together and attached it to my wall with command hooks and fishing line. NBD - just 4 hours of my life put towards this birthday party project for my 3-year-old. Guaranteed this stays up until Christmas.
