At Grit and Glow, we’re not here to sell hustle for hustle’s sake.
If you are going full beast mode all of the time you will burnout.
Your body will quit and your ability to handle the load mentally will also deplete.
You will start to slowly drift into the abyss of injuries, fatigue, mood swings, and oh…so much more. Speaking from experience…It’s just not worth it.
You have one life and one body. If you are always pushing yourself to your limit for that new P.R you will find your limit and will feel extremely limited.
We’re done with toxic training mindsets that praise exhaustion and glorify burnout. That approach doesn’t build resilience. It chips away at it.
It’s time to flip the script.
Your Plan Isn’t Working if You’re Always Tired
You don’t need more discipline.
You need a recovery forward plan that supports your goals and your nervous system.
If you’re constantly running on fumes, skipping recovery, or pushing through signs of fatigue, you’re not training harder. You’re training on borrowed time. Progress doesn’t come from doing more. It comes from doing what’s necessary, then recovering like it matters. Because it does.
Recovery Is a Form of Strength Training
The strongest athletes and the most grounded women know this: how you rest is how you rise.
Recovery isn’t passive. It’s movement with intention.
It’s choosing mobility over mayhem. It’s slowing down to listen to your body, not because you’re giving up, but because you’re choosing to show up tomorrow ready.
This is your permission slip to ditch the guilt and start treating recovery as essential, not extra.

Let’s Build a Smarter Training Mindset
We’re not telling you to train less. We’re telling you to train right.
To program your week with purpose. To plan for sleep, movement, nutrition, sauna, cold exposure, stretching, breath work, and real rest.
Hot Tip: When you plan your training around your recovery you will actually feel more energized. One of things I like to practice is putting one element of recovery in my plan everyday. This could be a contrast shower, muscle rolling, red light stretching, or a recovery run or walk. And I build my plan around recovery. This optimizes your body and sets you up for even greater success.
Because when your training mindset shifts from punishment to preparation, your results follow.
You’ll lift heavier. Strike harder. Show up sharper.
And more importantly, you’ll feel like you.
Grit is how you push. Glow is how you rebuild.
This isn’t about taking it easy. It’s about getting serious.
It’s about making recovery a non-negotiable part of your plan.
And that’s what we’re building here.
Let’s stop training from a place of depletion and start showing up with intention.
You ready?
