Welcome!

Hi, I'm Allison, and I'm so glad you found me!  I am a central Texan, born and raised a farmer's daughter who reaches to be a better version of myself every single day.  I grew up learning to work hard, dream big, and always be kind to those around me.  I am now living my dream because I chose to be persistent and persevere through anxiety, self doubt, and failure.  I have learned that I am stronger than anything that comes my way because God is bigger and better and will be with me every step of the way.  

 I am a child of God, wife to my college sweetheart, mother to 2 girls, and a family nurse practitioner.  But that's not all!  I am a runner, writer, dog Mom to a spoiled rotten goldendoodle, and lover of books, travel, coffee, and wine.  I love all things personal growth and feel that I am able to better serve those around me when my cup is filled up.  When I fill up, I can spill out to my family, friends, patients, and my readers.  

 Just like farming, life is full of seasons of cultivating, planting, pruning and harvest.  Some seasons are full of joy and other seasons are heavy and filled with heartache.  It is during these difficult seasons that we must learn to fill our cup with good things.  I hope that you will join me on this journey of pouring into ourselves so we can joyfully pour into others.

Podcasts

You might be someone that has been listening to podcasts for years, or you might be asking what the heck is a podcast?  I discovered podcasts about 2 years ago, and they have literally changed my life.  I used to "multi-task" by running, doing chores, walking the dog, or driving AND listening to music or maybe watching a TV show.  Then one day, I discovered the world of podcasts, and I can't get enough of them.  Did you know podcasts are totally free?  If you have an APPLE device, there is a purple podcast APP already on your device.  Simply click on it and search through thousands of podcasts and subscribe to the ones you want to follow each week. A podcast is essentially an internet radio show that you can listen to via your device.  It's free content on almost any topic you can think of.  The host downloads new episodes each week, giving you something to look forward to.  If you follow any motivational speaker, author, or thought leader,...

How to Create a Morning Routine

On my journey to create the best version of myself and create a more fulfilling life, I have learned the importance of a good morning routine.  How we start our day can have incredible impact on how the rest of our day goes.  Starting our day with gratitude, time in scripture and prayer, and setting our intentions for the day sets us up for success.  Creating time to work on ourselves and our goals is life changing.  Not feeling rushed, unorganized, and flustered in the morning is important in setting the tone for the day. I have always been someone that wakes up early, mostly because I have to!  In my younger high school days, I would often set my alarm for 4 am to finish up homework or study for a test before an early morning practice.  In college, it was often the same way.  I just never seemed to have enough hours in the day or would tire out early at night, so I was left with early morning hours to get my work done.  As a nurse in the hospi...

Put yourself in the ROOM with others who have what you want!

 Happy July and the last 6 months of 2024!  Can you believe this year is already halfway over?  Crazy, huh?  Whether you're crushing your goals or feeling a little behind, know that there is still time to keep working and end the year STRONG!  6 months is plenty of time to commit to a fitness program and build muscle, change your body composition, lose weight, start building healthy habits when it comes to nutrition, train for a winter race, or start prioritizing those big dreams and goals you are still thinking about (they're there for a reason!).  I don't know about you... but I'm not giving up on my list of goals for the year!  Because I am worth the work... and so are YOU! Over a week ago, I attended our annual BODi Summit in San Antonio, Texas for the 2nd year in a row and was reminded of the importance of putting yourself in the room with others who have what you want.  People who are also goal-oriented, ambitious, health-focused, early-morn...
