As we move forward in 2023, it’s time to think about how you can be unstoppable.
It doesn’t matter if that means being great at leading your team, crushing your business goals, or taking care of yourself—you need good habits to get there.
And luckily, bad habits can be unlearned and good habits can be formed.
Read on to find out how.
The Power of Small Changes
Making big changes is great but they aren’t the only way to make a difference in your life.
In fact, small changes are often more effective than big ones because they’re easier to maintain and build upon over time.
For example, if you want to break a bad habit like drinking soda every day, try reducing your consumption by one glass per week instead of swearing off soda completely.
This will give you an immediate sense of accomplishment and allow you to gradually reduce your intake until you’ve reached your goal without feeling overwhelmed or defeated.
Building Momentum
Once you’ve made a few small changes, it’s time to start building momentum so that those changes stick for the long-term.
The best way to do this is by setting yourself up for success with simple reminders and rewards along the way.
For example, if you want to start working out more regularly this year, put a sticky note on your bathroom mirror reminding yourself why exercise is important and congratulating yourself when you complete a workout session.
This will help motivate you while also giving you something positive to focus on throughout the process.
Focus on Your Why
Finally, it’s important to remember why these habits are so important in the first place.
Whether it’s eating healthier or getting better sleep at night, think about how these new habits will benefit both you and those around you in the long run.
Having a clear purpose will keep you motivated even when things get tough and help ensure that your hard work pays off in the end.
2023 can be an incredible year for personal growth if you have the right tools in place—and that starts with breaking bad habits and building good ones!
With small steps and consistent effort, anything is possible this year—you just have to take action now and stay focused on why these changes are so important in the first place so that nothing can stand in your way as a leader this 2023!
Unleash Your Potential and Dominate 2023 with High Performance!

With the market fluctuations. Inflation. Soaring prices…
It’s easy to feel shaken up by the uncertainty all around you and feel a bit out of balance.
But you can choose to respond rather than react…
…You can choose to become UNSHAKEABLE, unbreakable and unstoppable and commit right now to making the last half of this year the time to put your personal life and health at the top of your list, not just your business.
Change your LIFE with some of my favorite SIMPLE HABITS.
Habit #𝟏 — Cold Showers
This is a great way to train your self-discipline, reduce muscle soreness and help with your skin and weight loss.
I do cryotherapy.
Here’s how to do the cold showers:
Turn the nob to cold and stand in the stream for intervals of 30-60 seconds.
Habit #2 — Intermittent Fasting
This is one of my favorite habits for anti-aging, self-discipline, and permanently releasing weight.
It takes a little while to adjust to this lifestyle, but it’s so worth it!
You already have discipline as a successful person you just need to apply it.
Ask any anti-aging or bio hacking expert like Dave Asprey or David Sinclair. They love fasting as well, I love it for the great results I get for me and my clients.
Fasting and cold showers are two hard things that can make you more grateful for all the things you have access to in the comfortable world we are privileged to live in!
Gratitude makes you happier. The secret to happiness is to have less wants and more gratitude for what you have.
Here’s exactly how to do Intermittent fasting:
Stop eating at 6 or 8 at night, and break your fast at 10 or 12 in the morning (16-hour fast).
Habit #3 — Visualization
This strategy actually tricks your brain to thinking you have what you want already, and influences you to make decisions that will lead to accomplishing that big goal or vision you’re holding in your mind?
I hope that 𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘦𝘴 𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘦?
If not, that’s OK. The thing is….
It doesn’t have to make sense, just close your eyes, see/smell/feel what you want to have as you already have it.
And let the universe or whatever higher power you believe in, and your actions do the rest. ;)
All successful athletes and visionary leaders use this strategy of visualization
Here are some visualization prompts to get you started:
90 days from now what is it you’d like to achieve?
How does it feel?
How proud are you?
Are you more confident now that you’ve achieved this?
Habit #4 — Meditate
If you want to be more joyful in these turbulent times, you can train yourself to be happier by taking positive actions, and a great start would be to start meditating.
Start with 3 minutes. Close your eyes, sit down relaxed, and focus on your breath (6 sec in, 6 sec out).
I include visualization in my meditation.
The science proves meditation and gratitude positively impacts your physical and mental health. Meditation and focusing daily on what you’re grateful for in advance is a good happiness hack!
Habit #5 — Evening Routine
Sleep is so important. I know this because I’ve neglected sleeping before and the struggle is real..
Implementing an evening routine changed sleep for me and my clients. Just do a few things before sleeping that make you relax, like meditation with the lights off.
Your lifestyle will improve when you improve your quality of sleep!
Here are a pre-sleep routine tips:
No electronics 1 hr before bed.
No food 3 hours before bed.
Reduce noise and light exposure.
Set bedroom temperature low.
During the day, spend time outdoors for light exposure.
Also plan your top goals for tomorrow the night before.
Lay out the things that you’ll need to hit those goals by making them obvious!
For example lay out your workout clothes if your goals include exercise in your morning routine.
Habit #6 — Morning Routine
This Is the big A-lister habit.
Without my morning routine, I would still be falling prey to my ADD and be unfocused wasting my time…
Find 2 to 6 habits to implement in your morning routine that set you up for a successful day, whatever that means to you!
Here’s a PRO TIP:
Do something hard in your morning routine so that the rest of the day comes easy because you’ve already done a hard task. (The eat that frog principle, book by Brian Tracy)
And, always choose things & habits that align with your values and goals. So think about, future planning in your morning and evening routine, meditation and visualization, reading, breath-work, and a cold shower to finish it off!
These strategies have helped my clients and they can help you too like Henry, a successful CEO. He was an athlete in his 20s, and had the discipline – and the muscles –
Then his focus and drive shifted: he became a successful executive and like many super successful people do which is to focus on business.
One day he woke up, looked at himself in the mirror, and didn’t recognize the man he saw staring back at him.
He had gained weight. His energy and vitality were in the tank.
The journey to build his company took everything out of him: 16-hour days, 7 days a week. And taking care of himself was not on the schedule.
This story might sound familiar. Lots of you driven people—can find yourself feeling stuck in tunnel vision these days!
Success in one area of life can come at the expense of happiness, success, and fulfillment in other areas.
But it doesn’t have to be that way!
And Henry found the answer for creating balance and experiencing a life beyond anything he previously dreamed of…
by working with me.
Now he’s made his health a priority, aligned his actions with his values, gained more energy than he had even back in his days of being an athlete—and now he’s unstoppable. Physically, mentally and emotionally.
You can experience the same life-changing shift that Henry did by reaching out to me.
Gain the systems to take control of your health and energy so you can unlock your healthiest self at any age or stage of life.
Today we discussed 𝟼 𝘰𝘧 𝘮𝘺 𝘩𝘢𝘣𝘪𝘵𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘱𝘦𝘥 𝘮𝘦 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦 𝘮𝘺 life and my clients lifestyle 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘦 better let me know what you would add. If you want to create a better lifestyle… today is the day to start!

Many business owners and entrepreneurs strive to become the best they can be in their field.
So, what if you could learn 4 of the most highly sought-after skills that the world’s high-performing leaders possess?
Would you want to listen in and learn?
If a resounding “Yes” was your answer, you are in for a real treat as I discuss the four steps to being a high-performing leader by first leading yourself.
Being a great leader requires many traits, including being organized, having great communication skills, and tons of energy.
There is a link between wellness and leadership!
Self-leadership is all about leading yourself to become the master of your life.
You need self-leadership in these times of uncertainty because great leadership requires self-development, self-awareness and lots of energy.
Maintaining your physical health and nutrition is step one for the high energy levels required to lead.
This will help you to tackle difficult situations with strength, grit and stamina.
Let’s jump in with my six skills to becoming the best version of yourself!
Skill #1 — Self-discipline
Discipline in fitness and life isn’t tied to what you feel like doing.
I went for a workout yesterday even though I didn’t feel like it.
I did it because I made a commitment.
Keeping your word to yourself to do the things you said you would do, even when you don’t feel like it matters in all areas of your life, not just business!
You need to pay attention to your nutrition in order to achieve peak performance.
Skill #2 — Good habits
This skill is backed by science and practiced by millionaires and billionaires like Oprah and Jack Dorsey.
Fit leadership starts with locking in your morning with good habits. This actually starts the night before by getting to bed early enough and not hitting the wine too hard!
Goal stacking in the morning with positive habits helps build momentum for a productive day.
Four of my millionaire morning suggestions are drinking water and exercising to stay energized.
Setting time to clear your head with meditation. Practice 7-7-7 breathing — inhale for seven, hold for 7, and exhale for 7.
Before you jump into your phone or workday, do this to start your day off on the right high-energy note and to boost your mood.
Planing your morning and your meals sets you up to be successful for the rest of the day especially with the fast pace that’s required of you as a leader!
Good habit stacking is essential for leading a healthy lifestyle and self-leadership to stay aligned with your goals.
Skill #3 — Self-awareness
True power Lies In Knowing Yourself
This helps you lead in these uncertain times.
Knowing your values, beliefs, and having good habits influence your decision-making abilities!
Skill #4 — Self-confidence
As a leader, having a strong belief in your abilities and strengths is important. And by being fit, it increases your confidence level.
Skill #5 — Have SMART Goals
Goals that are specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and time-bound.
Having smart goals gives you a vision and targets that you can put on a timeline.
Tracking your performance and achievement is important to give you a sense of fulfillment and motivate you to work even harder at your goals.
Setting smart goals can help you monitor your fitness progress, which is essential when you are trying to develop new healthy habits or simply trying to achieve any goal.
Skill #6 — Be prepared for self-sabotage
Self-sabotaging plays a role in resisting growth and failed resolutions.
I know I’ve been there but I keep going!
You must also be prepared for the challenges that come up.
Having a solid plan and following the plan helps you cope with resistance to stay on track to reach your goals because New Year’s resolutions don’t last, but sticking to a plan does!
Self-mastery, includes not being too hard on yourself when you slip up, rewarding yourself for your accomplishments, and accepting that failure is part of the plan—forgive yourself and keep going when you fail so that you feel motivated to do better.
I’ll leave you with this great MLK quote
“If you can’t fly then run, if you can’t run then walk, if you can’t walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.”
Being an effective leader involves getting yourself in peak performance.
Remember: Health is Wealth!
With your fast-paced life as a leader, fitness and nutrition can be hard to maintain. Imagine having more energy at work – and on the weekends.

It’s time for Shimmer and shine – the holiday party season is in full effect! Now more than ever, it’s essential to squeeze in some necessary toning. From short skirts to that little black dress, we all want elongated legs and a perky butt. The key to it all is achieving the perfect squat. Below, I’ve listed a few of my favorite moves that produce quick, head-turning results. And some bounce back tips because it is that time of the year when we all go to parties and get-togethers with family and friends, and like me we may indulge at times.
The Perfect Narrow Squat
Stand with your feet touching and hold your hands comfortably in front of your chest to help you stay balanced. Bend your knees, lowering your hips deeply, bringing your thighs parallel with the floor if you can. Your weight should be back onto your heels. Then rise back up, straightening the legs completely and squeezing the glutes.
To make this move more challenging, you can kick your leg out behind you as you rise up, alternating sides.
The Perfect Sumo Squat
Stand with your feet wide and toes pointing out. Your hands should be comfortably in front of your chest to help you stay balanced. Bend your knees, lowering your hips deeply so your thighs are parallel with the floor; your weight should be on your heels. When you rise back up, straighten the legs completely and squeeze the glutes.
Now, for an effective move that will tighten up your entire body if done correctly. When you have good form, a plank will strengthen your arms, legs and butt muscles. You need to make sure your body is properly aligned and you stay as still as possible. Good form will give you the best results.
The Perfect Plank
Start in a push-up pose, with your body straight and your hands directly under the shoulders, slightly wider than shoulder-width. Push your toes into the floor and squeeze the glutes to keep stable. Your legs should be working too, but DO NOT hyperextend the knees. Your neck and spine should be neutral. It’s good to find a focal point on the floor that is about a foot beyond where your hands are planted. Your head should be in line with your back.
