My husband proposed on the “Rocky” steps — aka the Philadelphia Art Museum steps. And he has always looked to the iconic boxing movie for motivation in his training as a wrestler. So it’s pretty natural that our son seems to love it too 🥊

I saw a quote recently that showed two acronyms for FEAR. One was “Forget Everything And Run” — and the other was “Face Everything And Rise!” And this week, I’d like to challenge each one of us to rise, in whatever way we can. I even thought of another l… https://t.co/n67GJjUvud

Yesterday was my sister’s birthday, and even though she lives close by, we had to celebrate from afar bc #socialdistancing .

We’d been planning for weeks to make this “wacky cake” for her — bc it’s the BEST cake ever, so we went ahead and still made it … https://t.co/VDvO8Y7pkX

“I have GOT to figure out a way to make this work!” .

I so clearly remember saying this to myself when I first started working from home, with four kids under the age of six 🤪 That moment of feeling the desperate need for some structure came in one … https://t.co/WAurerr4L6

18 months has passed since that picture on the left ❤️ I remember feeling so uncomfortable with my body right after giving birth when my first daughter was born. The royal family and celebs make it look like they were never pregnant at all when you first… https://t.co/DAUnJF0niq

Back in October, I hosted my team on my first ever leadership retreat at the beach! 😎 We woke up early Saturday morning and worked out in a private fitness room I’d reserved, and then had a lot of fun throughout the day — at the beach, the pool, out … https://t.co/gVdIcvOxUL

Some thoughts from my heart ❤️

So many of my friends and relatives are being told what they can’t do. They can’t travel — they can’t work from their office — they can’t send their kids to their activities. And while the uncertainty is a hard reality, … https://t.co/l9MVwE7A1Y

“She’s only a freshman, let’s see what she can do.” — those words are literally a direct quote from my coach in the college newspaper, which he said about me right before I stepped up to compete on balance beam in the biggest meet of my life thus far. A … https://t.co/qkaamLI6vt

[Meredith Yonushonis @MerYonushonis]

When I was in 3rd grade, I was so self-conscious of my own strength. I was a little gymnast who trained 12 hours a week, and I have to say I was pretty ripped. .

But I didn’t want attention for it. And yet the competitive side in me would still come out… https://t.co/4v8h0mKR4e

It can be so hard for me to take time to rest — even on Sundays sometimes!! And this weekend, we spent most of our time working hard on renovating our new house. .

One day we’ll look back at this phase of life, and wonder “How did we do all of that??”

Up until my fourth pregnancy, I thought that being pregnant meant I got a pass on “having” to work out 🏋🏻‍♀️ .

I barely did anything exercise related during my fourth time around — besides chasing kids, which IS exercise, no doubt! But by not exercising… https://t.co/YRfcMUnL5d

This little guy gave me quite a scare today! .

I was just about to start my workout this afternoon, and I heard a thud followed by a huge wailing cry. Not completely surprising with 5 kids, so I waited a second. Then the girls came around the corner yel… https://t.co/PylysRCGtv

A few years ago, our middle daughter constantly sang one of the most common responsorial psalms that we hear during Lent...only she was off just a smidge... . “The Lord is KINDA merciful” 🎶😂

My 4yo received her ashes today at mass, and for the third year in a row, she promptly wiped them off and pouted. Which is better than last year, when she immediately burst into a wailing cry. .

I can understand her feelings. Normally, having dust or di… https://t.co/gXBYT5oeUp

“There is no room for fear here. Fear is not welcome here.”

I heard these words just over a year ago, in a crowded event hall with hundreds of leaders staring up at the brightly lit stage. .

I felt a little flutter in my stomach at these words, as if… https://t.co/W5BLjHyVzT
