Hello, everyone! Welcome to the April Newsletter!

Hope you are enjoying the spring weather and sunshine!

With the warmer weather comes a lot more work for me here on the farm. Gardening, picking eggs, random repairs around the yard, chopping firewood for next season and so much more. So if you don't see me posting too much on social media, this will be why! But please know that I am a email/text away if you need support or are in need of a funny joke or meme.

We've got a lot of fun things happening in the next few weeks and months, so enjoy the April Newsletter.

You got this!

Music: For Yoga

For those subscribed to my On-Demand video membership, you may have noticed that I don’t include background music in my recordings. This ensures my instructions remain clear for everyone.

If you'd love to add some music to your practice, check out the playlist I created for my yoga classes at the Farm Studio—available on Spotify!

Podcast Recommendation: Attention LADIES!

Hot off the press! I just listened to a newly released podcast featuring Dr. Stacy Sims, an Exercise Physiologist and Nutrition expert at Stanford University. Dr. Sims specializes in research and education on the key differences between health and fitness recommendations for men vs. women.

In this episode, she breaks down essential advice on strength training, nutrition, sleep, and more—tailored to different life stages, including premenopausal, perimenopausal, and menopausal women.

I learned so much from this podcast and highly recommend it! I’ll be incorporating her insights into my own routine—as well as my approach with female patients.
