It’s easy to forget why I started, but sharing real examples of how health and wellbeing can be made accessible (to geeks) is the best reminder.

If you’d like to join the Autumn cohort of the Single Player Power Program, you have until this Saturday to sign up! 💚

I got some pics from @officialpax.bsky.social and it inspired me to celebrate - it’s been just over a year since the Marvel Fitness Deck came out!

Now I get to say I was recruited as a content expert… and it all began with a little girl who just really loved gym class. 🥰

Thanks for your support!

The @geekgirlstrong.bsky.social panel "Wellness for Geeks Who Sit" at #PAXWest was so good.

I have never felt so encouraged in the realm of fitness and I teared up a little. What a wonderful experience 🥹

Tomorrow @ SDCC I’m a guest panelist talking about being a creator… reminding myself that I’m a published author & educator & founder & communications professional!

Saturday I’m just your nerdy health educator. Time to take a break from the con floor, restore some stamina and gain some XP with me!

Yeah, I’ve been figuring some sh*t out. Come get a first look at the upgrades for this con season, same authenticity with some newly learned tricks from the normie world. 🥸

Even irregular & imperfect meditation has helped keep me from losing hours to social media.

I sometimes notice when I've picked up my phone to do something, but I'm scrolling.

Now, I gently and without judgment, take a deep breath, pause to remember, and redirect myself to what I intended to do.

Since we WERE all gamers here... Y'all be sitting on those booties all day. Don't lie, we know you do. 😒 No judging, tho. This is why our friends at @gdocexpo.com put this special video for you to activate those glutes!
