Fitness is not about the perfect body.

It's about being healthy and feeling amazing. It's about having the inner strength and self motivation to live life's greatest adventure. It's about feeling relentlessly beautiful.

Live in the moment. It sounds simple, but we as humans have an incredibly difficult time enjoying the moment. Why is that? I believe we tend to spend so much time replaying past moments or planning too much for the future, that we miss out on the great moments that are unveiling right before us.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Society has romanticized the overly busy and the constant movers and shakers. Don't get me wrong, I'm one who loves to plan my time, have a list of things to accomplish, and go for my goals as hard as I can. BUT I also strongly believe in finding harmony and joy while working hard towards our goals. There is often way too much talk of building for the future but what about building for the NOW? We all desire genuine happiness, and in order to manifest this joy we have to live presently. Too much focus on the future can lead to excessive stress and anxiety.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 5 Reasons Why We Should Live in The Moment⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 1. The present moment is the only moment you have control over right NOW.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 2. Being present is a GREAT stress reducer.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 3. Plans don't always manifest the way you want or expect. BE FLEXIBLE!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 4. Every moment is a gift.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 5. Living in the moment puts us in an #attitudeofloveandgratitude.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What are some of your reasons for living in the moment? #createdwithadidas #adidaswomen #cloudfoampure #adidas

Happy Saturday my dear friends. I love you so matcha! 😘 I’m taking the next few days to sink into my life IRL. It’s the first weekend I don’t have to be in school because of the Easter holiday and I’m going to live it up! Taking the weekend and a few days next week OFF (because it’s the girls’ Spring Break) of creating content, doing homework, and researching to just be liberated in living. 🙌🏾 Living your best and healthiest life is all about creating harmony with all the things your passionate about, including ways to live it up and let your hair down. #attitudeofloveandgratitude ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What do you guys have planned this weekend? How are you celebrating the best version of yourself and others around you? #womaninprogress #gofitjo
Just moments after I took this picture I looked at @longanisaburps and said, “I think this is the sexiest and most confident I’ve felt all week. No, actually I think maybe this is the sexiest and most alive I’ve felt all my life.” Then the tears came. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ For years I believed that the idea of being “sexy” as a woman was supposed to be for a man’s pleasure or his desire. For years I believed that “sexy” was only reserved for the lean, long, and beautiful women. Thank you media and porn for burning these stories in my mind. 👎🏾 For years I believed that “sexy” was a feeling that mothers were NOT allowed to feel. #effyourbeautystandards ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ These stories we tell ourselves can be rewritten. Within each of us is the power to tell ourselves a new story of how we see ourselves. You can do this. You can start today by asking yourself “How do I want to show up for me? How do I want to see myself? What makes me come alive? What makes me feel the most authentically raw, real, strong, beautiful, and alive?” By doing this you give permission for others to do the same. #womaninprogress
Took a trip down memory lane on my #IGstories today and sharing memories from this journey that started back in 2013. From the aha moment that kick started my #fitnessjourney, to the two years I spent competing as an #NPCbikini athlete, to some of the hard lessons learned when I realized I became obsessed and addicted to fitness, and up to now where I’ve taken a few steps back to see the whole picture of what wellness really means to me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You’ve got 24 hours until it disappears. Head to my IG story before it goes away. #womaninprogress #gofitjo #heretocreate #adidaswomen #adidas
If you really knew me, you’d know that self-love and self-acceptance is something I’ve always struggled with. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you really knew me, you’d know that I’ve done a lot of hard work to turn my pain into power. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you really knew me, you’d know that my deepest fear is not being ENOUGH. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you really knew me, you’d know that my love for people and humanity runs deep and it can be all consuming. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you really knew me, you’d know that I’m learning to accept that my darkness is a part of who I am and I fear that my loved ones will be destroyed by it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Last week my brother @mike.sagun wrote a post just like this and it has been on my mind lately because deep down inside there’s an internal war I’ve been fighting with the idea of being enough. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ✨Finish the sentence for yourself, “If you really knew me you’d know that...”✨ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Bringing self-awareness to your pain and internal struggles is the first step to healing, self-love, self-acceptance, and self-compassion. Its the first step to making the greatest changes in your life whether it’s in your health, career, relationships, or personal growth. It’s a powerful force in life that most of us run from. Looking inward can be frightening. But facing our truths is the only way to feeling liberated from our fears. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I am the woman that I am today because of the pain, the darkness, and the trauma I’ve had to overcome. It didn’t happen overnight. It took years. It took a lifetime. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I am the light I am today because I have the ability to see that letting people in creates empathy and compassion when we don’t have the strength to find it in ourselves. But it isn’t always easy to do so. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You are so deserving of love. You are deserving of self-acceptance. You are ENOUGH in your darkness and in your light. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I am here. You are here. We are here together. #womaninprogress
