You’re pulling the groceries in your car, just doing what you’ve always done, and all of a sudden your back spasms up. Or perhaps you’ve reached into the back seat of your car from the front seat and you feel like a knife just shot through your chest or maybe your back. Maybe you’ve been standing in line, someone calls your name, and when you turn you get a searing pain through the front of your hips, perhaps your hip flexor.It happens.

I’ve been a fitness professional for 17 years, and without fail, the number one request I receive from any client at any age is “more core!” I totally get it- there is nothing more rewarding than arching your back backwards and feeling your muscles stretch and they're sore and it just feels so rewarding. Or if you're attuned to how you're moving, you may notice that you're not able to get out of bed or up off the floor as well anymore.In today's solo episode, we explore:What

Hally comes with such a positive energy that stems from combining a deep understanding of science with a realistic and holistic approach. She defines “nourishment” for us at one point and it was kind of like a Jerry Maguire moment. Instead of “You had me at hello,” it was “You had me at nourished.”Hally is a nationally board certified health and wellness coach as well as a functional medicine

One of the things I struggle with as a Jesus follower is holding space for people who are hurting or going through a difficult time and also being a light or encouraging. As I’ve been paying attention to the mental health professionals, I’ve been learning about the concept of Toxic Positivity. And to be honest, I’ve been guilty of this…probably even more than I realize.When I wanted to explore this conversation, I knew just the right person to reach out to.
