FREE Fitness, Yoga and Meditation Resources for Adults and Kids!

These are unprecedented times. You may feel helpless. You may feel overwhelmed with the uncertainty. I get it. I’m feeling it too!

And I’m also feeling hope. Because as I look around I see people rising. Supporting one another. Not because they have to – but because they want to make a difference. So many people I know in the health and fitness industry are offering themselves and their services for FREE to serve and support people as we navigate this tricky time.

As a coach, one of the ways I view myself is as a “concierge” – someone who knows the ins and outs and can direct people to different resources, tools and solutions!

So I’ve compiled this (ever growing) list of tools, resources and solutions to support you!

How to use this list:

Pick and choose the ones that speak to you (and know I’m here to help)! Whether it’s to direct you to additional resources or as a friendly touch point.

Free Super You Resources to Support you:

How are you doing (really)? I know, it’s a loaded question. Because the honest truth is most of us are struggling (hard). Because this is TOUGH.

Which is why I’ve designed this super simple (and hopefully helpful) 5-day mini-course on building resilience. Each day you’ll get an email in your inbox to help you build your resilience and be mentally and physically healthy (as best you can).

Want some support, community and accountability? Want a “LIVE-ish” experience?

From now through June 26th from 7am-8am I’m teaching LIVE on Zoom (video conferencing tool) on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays!

Are you a “displaced runner” OR are you looking for support to start running (since it’s one thing we CAN do?

Is no events, no run clinics or club, no running meet-ups getting you down and killing your mojo? You are not alone! This is exactly why the Super You RunCrew Coaches and I got together and created the RunCrew Club! This monthly membership is a hub of support, (virtual) camaraderie, connection and coaching! We have monthly events, Zoom calls, and challenges to keep you inspired. And you have access to the virtual coaching and support you need whether you’re getting started or a seasoned runner. Learn more here.

Looking for more personalized support?

I’m offering one-to-one Coaching on a sliding scale – pay what you can.
