I’ll Never Get My Body Back and I’ve Never Felt Better

Christina — Sat, 08 Aug 2026 12:29:04 +0000

Yesterday I went for a run in ninety-degree heat. Pushing a stroller. As a mother. Sweating like an animal, red in the face, absolutely feral about it. And somewhere around the halfway point I had a thought I want to be honest about, because I think it’s the most confident thought I’ve had in years: I am so cool. Not ... Read More

Perfect Form is a Cage

Christina — Tue, 04 Aug 2026 18:29:56 +0000

I want you to notice something the next time you go to pick up something heavy — a laundry basket, a toddler, a bag of groceries pulling your arm out of the socket. You hesitate. Just a little. Some voice in the back of your head goes am I doing this right? Is this how you’re supposed to lift? Am ... Read More

The Last Dance: on movement during the final chapter

Christina — Tue, 04 Aug 2026 18:10:10 +0000

They’re coming out of the woodwork now. Word travels, I guess. That there’s a woman down the hall who gives you her time. Who takes you seriously. Who actually knows what she’s doing with a body. And so, one by one, they’ve started coming to find me — and every week there’s a new one sitting across from me in ... Read More

3 Stupid Simple Ways to Keep Your House Under Control

Christina — Mon, 03 Aug 2026 12:38:11 +0000

I want to tell you about three things that keep my house from falling into total chaos, and I need you to know up front that I ignored all three for years because they seemed too obvious, too small, or frankly kind of dumb. They are not dumb. They are the whole game. I was the dumb one. Here they ... Read More

Your Business Is Not Your Wallet: Why I Keep Business and Personal Money Completely Separate

Christina — Sun, 02 Aug 2026 13:18:25 +0000

If you’ve read anything else I’ve written, you know I treat my rental property like its own little creature: it has its own account, its own profit, its own emergency cushion, and I don’t just dip into it whenever I feel like it. That property doesn’t fund my lifestyle — it funds itself first, and stays ready for whatever breaks ... Read More

First Weekend, Fresh Start: The Money Ritual That Keeps My Whole Life on Track

Christina — Sat, 01 Aug 2026 12:56:53 +0000

There’s a version of personal finance that’s all stress and avoidance, where you don’t look at your accounts because you’re a little scared of what you’ll find. I lived there for a while. It’s exhausting. Then I did something almost embarrassingly simple: I picked one weekend a month and made it the weekend. The first weekend, every month, no matter ... Read More

You Don’t Need a Longer Warm-Up, You Need More Movement Throughout Your Day

Christina — Wed, 29 Jul 2026 11:44:57 +0000

I don’t have twenty minutes to warm up anymore. I have a toddler and a job and a life that does not include a leisurely pre-workout ramp where I slowly coax my body into being willing. If it takes me twenty minutes to get ready to work out, I’m never working out. There isn’t time. That window is the whole ... Read More

What a Baby and a 90-Year-Old Taught Me About Movement

Christina — Thu, 23 Jul 2026 12:34:28 +0000

Here is my life right now: In the morning, I might be on the floor with my 15-month-old daughter, watching her drop into a flawless squat to pick up a Cheerio- heels down, spine long, hips loaded, a position half my grown clients pay me to help them get back. And later that same day, I’m standing in a room ... Read More

I Will Not Be a Mom on the Sidelines

Christina — Thu, 16 Jul 2026 18:50:26 +0000

I want to start with a confession, because I think it’ll save some of you a lot of self-loathing. I know nearly everything there is to know about fitness. Not as a hobby — as a profession. I have spent my adult life inside the art and the science of how bodies move. I currently run a fitness department. I ... Read More

Getting Your Pink Back- and other dumb shit sold to mothers

Christina — Thu, 09 Jul 2026 13:12:49 +0000

She looked at me and said, “They say it takes two years to get your pink back.” What? I had spent 35 years building a life rooted in ambition, purpose, and adventure. A thriving career I built myself, brick by brick, from scratch. A tidy, organized, systemized home. And this comment — surely meant to be encouraging — was somehow ... Read More
