How To Become A #Girlboss

It's amazing how fast time can pass by without you even fully realizing it. It's also incredible to see how much can change over the course of time...whether it's a short amount or not. Today marks 3 years since I first discovered Beachbody's coaching opportunity. Beachbody changed my life the year before when I first started my fitness journey in April of 2011. I had been praying for some relief and help to overcome my terrible post-partum depression. And after seeing the Turbo Fire infomercial so many times...I felt this was my answer. Since then, I have fallen more and more in love with this company, what it represents, and its mission...especially with what it has done for me and many others in my life.

How Much Sun Do I Need?

So, I know that probably sounds like an odd question to ask. But in all seriousness, how much sun do you get? Do you get sun daily, weekly, once in a while, or seldom? For me, it is seldom...or at least it was. And even that's funny to admit, because I live in sunny Arizona! But the reality is, I didn't and sometimes still do not get enough sun.

There were times where I'd go weeks without getting sun, but often times it was days. I am a stay-at-home mom and Aiden and I stay inside the house for 5 days a week. We work out and have activity play inside...so that wasn't really an issue.
