TERRI
- What are your 2021 resolutions?
- I want to continue to improve my mind and body by eating healthy and keeping up with my workouts. I also want to continue to work on being a better teacher for myself and my students.
- What does community mean to you?
- Community is so important, to surround yourself with people that help build you up and keep you motivated is everything.
- Who inspires you?
- My mother has always inspired me to work hard especially in my career as a teacher, and to stay fit and healthy. Busy Philipps also inspired me to join LEKFIT from her instagram stories.
NICOLE
- Message for the LEKFIT community?
- Even on the days when you think you can't I am here to tell you that you most definitely can. the days where we need to push ourselves just a little bit harder are the most rewarding.
- Who or what are you most thankful for?
- I am most thankful for my husband and son who consistently push me to feel confident and beautiful. they always see the good when I am struggling too!
- How do you give back to yourself?
- Give back by reminding myself to allow grace and not be so hard on myself so often. this also involves long baths with music, my LEKFIT and yoga sessions, dark chocolate, monthly facials, baking, and late night romcom sessions with a glass of wine in hand.
CAROLYN
- Message for the LEKFIT community?
- Ladies - you are all WARRIORS. seeing you all sweat it out on IG stories and in the LEKFIT FB group GIVES ME LIFE! I love hearing everyone's wins, relating to your struggles, and I've even made LEKFIT friends around the world.
- Who or what are you most thankful for?
- I'm most thankful for the people around me who lift me up, advocate for me, and show me what love looks like. the shutdown has allowed me to really strengthen and nourish relationships that matter to me and it's a huge silver lining of this tough year.
- How do you give back to yourself?
- I give back to myself by being kind to my mind and body and giving it what it craves. If it's a sweat sesh, I prioritize it in my day. If I'm feeling anxious, I do a little Headspace meditation and use tactics I learned in therapy. If it's a big bowl of pasta and a glass of wine, I'll honor that too ;)
CARLY
- Message for the LEKFIT community?
- Thank you all for your support and kindness! In a year where we've been isolated and cut off from connections, I am so thrilled to have met so many awesome babes!
- Who or what are you most thankful for?
- My husband and my best gal pals. they've all been my biggest cheerleaders and support systems throughout this wacky year. I couldn't have done it without them.
- How do you give back to yourself?
- By carving out an hour each morning for LEKFIT. when I've been asked how I stay so consistent working out, it's because it's the one hour a day that I get to dedicate solely to myself and it's literally the one thing I can control in a year that has felt so out of control.

- Who or what are you most thankful for?

- How do you give back to yourself?
- I take care of my health by doing BOOST 5x a week and following a healthy-gut based diet, and I unwind (and reward myself) with a glass (or two) of Good Clean Wine Rose, a juicy chick-flick book, and the occasional Susiecakes cupcake on the weekends.

- How do you give back to yourself?
- I give myself that time to sweat. In return I see defined shoulders & biceps, slimmer thighs, a leaner back... but I also find I am not automatically turning to food for anxiety or boredom.
