Hello 💛

Hey GlowGetter,

Here's a sentence that's been living in my head for weeks: comfort is the enemy dressed as peace.

Read that again.

Comfort feels good. It feels safe. But comfortable is not the same as alive. Four years ago, I sat at my desk after getting laid off from my underwriting job. I weighed 431 pounds. I was in debt. I was tired in a way sleep couldn't fix.

I had been comfortable with all of it. Not happy. Just used to it.

That day, something clicked. I started doing hard things on purpose. Walking at 6am when it scared me. Taking a new job. Meal prepping on Sundays when I'd rather sleep. Making new friends when I had zero energy left.

Four years later: over 190 pounds gone naturally, over $40,000 in debt paid off, a job I'm proud of, and this podcast right here.

None of that happened in my comfort zone. It happened right outside it.

This week's challenge: Pick one uncomfortable thing. Just one. Do it before Sunday.

🌞 Your July Glow Up List

Summer is not the season to coast. Here are 7 quick ways to glow up this month:

1. Money — Do a mid-year check-in. Where did your money actually go?
2. Food — Let summer fruit lead your meals. Peaches, berries, mango, all of it.
3. Beauty — Wear SPF every single day. That's the whole tip. Do it.
4. Swimsuit — Buy one that fits the body you have right now. Not a future one.
5. Patio — Try a new coffee shop or restaurant with outdoor seating.
6. Gather — Host a simple dinner. Grill something. Invite people you love.
7. Gratitude — Say thank you to someone who's held you up lately.

Pick one. Start today.

Keep glowing. Keep growing. You've got this.
