Hike More. Camp More. Swim More.
Life has felt a bit chaotic lately, from moving house to work trips and an all-inclusive holiday, my routine (and fitness!) have taken a bit of a hit. I’ve been feeling out of sync and low on energy, so I’ve decided it’s time to reset, refocus, and ease back into healthier habits. No big overhaul, just small daily changes that support how I want to feel. Stronger, more balanced, and back in control.

Somehow we're halfway through 2023 already, which seems pretty crazy. Looking back on the last 6 months and looking ahead to what's to come the rest of the year.
Sometimes life can feel pretty hectic, but I've found that making time for those micro adventures can bring so much joy.
