A nod to the incredible strength of mothers who strive to find time for self-care without guilt.

This week , I had the privilege of looking after a member’s little one during our step class . A great reminder to be kind, always. You never know the i...

There are 10 spots left for the new Power Sculpt class this Saturday at 9am at Ignited Force Gym.

I’ll be honest, I’m nervous.
This isn’t me creating a circuit and walking around coaching. This is me doing the workout with you.

Somewhere along the ...

Postpartum truths I’m learning (Part 1): Sound on 🔊

I ordered sizes for the body I thought I had,
not the one I’m learning to meet where it is now.

Trying the clothes on I felt unsure. I struggled.
And then I saw myself in the mirror…my friend hype...

2016 me wore these glasses everywhere.🫠
I had just made the brave decision to move countries and thought they made me look like I knew what I was doing.

The glasses came off.
The dress stayed.

Anyone else still have clothes from 10+ years ago?

If your body feels unfamiliar right now, this is your reminder: healing counts as training‼️

Once upon a time I flew over boxes.
Today I’m rebuilding the ability to lift my feet post c section. Both versions are strong.

11 months till 2027…what have you achieved❓😂

We tried to warn you at the end of 2025…
Now you’ve got 11 months before 2027 exposes who skipped legs and glutes in 2026.

Strength Month starts Monday with Lt. Dan.
Leg Day is not optional.

The cake challenge was everywhere at the end of 2025. I didn’t post mine.
Not because I had nothing to celebrate… but because it was filled the accomplishments, tough times, growth and milestones I can’t explain out loud.

So instead of closing 2025 ...

Five years. So many seasons. Endless gratitude 🤍

From 2020 to now, my chapter as a athlete shaped me in more ways than I can count.
didn’t just give me outfits… she gave me opportunity, investment, belief, friends, and a seat at tables I once only ...

If you’re in your postpartum chapter, you’re doing better than you think. ❤️

What you’re seeing is my first workout at 7 weeks postpartum → 1st gym workout 3 months postpartum… and no, it’s not a snap-back. It’s consistency in the smallest ways.

I put on the new Miracle Seamless set from and suddenly my postpartum body said HELLO. The way I turned around and even I got offended by how loud these curves were👀🙈

I really spent pregnancy thinking I’d hate this stage, but honestly? I’m kinda ob...

Motherhood stretched me in ways the gym never has… mentally, physically, spiritually. And it gave me a new lens on how I want to show up here.

You asked. listened.

This launch hits different, it’s the people’s collection. Every piece you loved, voted for, and asked to see again… reimagined and improved.

I’ve been wearing since 2020, but this one feels personal — because we built it toge...

Postpartum nutrition isn’t about restriction. It’s about 𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭, 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐘𝐎𝐔 + 𝐛𝐚𝐛𝐲. Especially after a C-section, the body needs high-quality protein, micronutrients, and healthy fats to repair fro

I prayed for this pregnancy for a while, and when it finally happened I wanted to soak it all in quietly. I didn’t share much in real time, but looking back I’m so grateful I moved my body through it all.

The greatest adventure just began with the tiniest steps💗

If strength had a silhouette…

Not “bouncing back”, just becoming more. Soft enough to nurture, strong enough to carry…
because softness and power can live in the same frame.

What’s your fave slide?

Two years ago, we opened Ignited Force with one goal: to create a space where movement meant more than just working out—it meant showing up for yourself, no matter the season.

3 years of classes later we’re still here because of YOU. Whether you’ve...

I never planned to do a maternity shoot. But i realized I wanted to honor the process.

I lost my mother when I was 8, but I’ve spent my life hearing stories about the kind of woman she was…resilient, radiant, full of grace and warmth. If I could bec...
