faith. family. fitness.

Looking back over some pictures of our trip to DisneyWorld last month... it’s funny (( or SAD, rather )) how many times I used to not go on trips because of fear, stress & anxiety. 😬 I never thought it was worth the “hassle” & that was BEFORE kids. When Nick was diagnosed with cancer and I realized that MANY of our most memorable moments were on the few trips we had taken together, I realized what a mistake we had made. Live WELL, my friends. Go on adventures as OFTEN as y

The longer we are together, the clearer it is... we are meant to be. 💕 Love date nights with this man.

LASHBACK to a year ago: I didn’t really know if she would make it. After two miscarriages, it didn’t come naturally to trust. But I leaned in & pressed forward, certain that whatever happened... His grace would cover us. ✨ Absolutely in awe of both of my little miracle rainbow babies to this day. 💕 Incredible Photographer: Tiffany Danielle Photography

Apparently we are closing out 2018 with the family flu... but, no matter. That just allows for extra time of reflection since we are missing out on all the parties. 😜⁣ ⁣ One of the greatest lessons I’ve learned this year is this: “It’s possible to pursue something for yourself, while simultaneously showing up for the people you love.” ⁣ ⁣ This year has been a CRAZY one. Our online fitness business has more than doubled, I finished up the manuscript for my book, I’ve star

I think this picture sums up Em’s first Christmas pretty well. 🎄 All smiles, no matter what’s going on around her & extra giggles when she gets to ride a pink unicorn. I mean, who could blame her? #EmeryRose #GaliosHouse

Our Christmas Eve is turning out to be a lot quieter than we planned... Instead of baking cookies, visiting family, & going to church yesterday... we were cooped up at home, tending to a sick kiddo & being super low-key. Instead of rocking around the Christmas tree, I spent a large chunk of time sitting on the floor of the bathroom next to our oldest. Instead of whipping up cookie recipes, Jay & I have spent hours teaming up to find & employ the perfect all-natural stain remo

A few of the moms came up at the end of the program and congratulated Austyn for really putting her heart into it. I guess they could hear her all the way in the back...

Looking back over 2018 and SO AMAZED at all that’s happened...⁣⁣😍 Little Emmy Rose joined the #GaliosHouse making us a family of four, I hired an editor & recently enlisted a few friends to help me get my book closer & closer to being it’s best (( so close now )), Nick’s life & story continues to impact more people every day, the happy video of Austyn finding out about her little sister has gone viral, I got to participate in a pilot test group for a brand new twenty min a d

I define success so much differently than I used to. And, DANNNG, I am SO GLAD I’m clear on what success means to ME now. ⁣ ⁣ To some women, success is making a million dollars and traveling across the globe. To some, it’s staying home and raising a family. To others, it’s building an empire from home. To some, it’s all of the above. ⁣ There IS no wrong answer here but make sure you think this through and re-evaluate OFTEN or you might find yourself going through the mot

Sometimes I wonder if I’m insane, sharing all of my struggles on social media. But, when I think about the kind of relationships I’m looking to build at this stage in my journey, it’s the AUTHENTIC ones I want most... so I can’t imagine being anyone else than ME. ⁣ I tend to air my dirty laundry for the world to see... & even have had some particularly less-than-attractive things that I’ve never talked about on social media make their way into my book. ⁣ ⁣ I could be sic
