Happy Monday friends!
How are you this fine day?
We had an exciting weekend over here in Boston- a taste of spring even! It was nearly 40 degrees yesterday and I was outside doing a little dance. It felt incredible! Not only was the sun out but I could actually FEEL the warmth on my face.

Well hello there! I'm Jenn from LiveWellFitNow. So good to "meet" you. I hope you will join me for a story about this little blog of mine. So sit back, grab a warm drink and read on.
The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.
~ Lao Tzu
I fell in love with that quote the other day.
You see, I finally woke up in 2008 and realized that I wasn’t really living my life. Well, I was going through the motions. I had a wonderful job, incredible friends, a loving boyfriend and a close family. If you looked at my life resume, things looked pretty fabulous actually!
But ask me how I felt on the inside….
Sad, lost, unfulfilled, out of touch, and unbalanced.
On a day in June of that year, I took one step. Not a giant leap but one small step in a brand new and unchartered direction. This step was one of commitment: to do one small thing each day to embrace who I was, to redefine what health meant to me, to reconnect with my body, to heal my relationship with food and to live authentically.
I began to live WELL with that one step.
In January of 2010, I wrote my first words at Live Well Fit Now. I was in such an adventurous place that month. I had left my full time job in healthcare to start my own wellness and holistic health coaching practice. I was 50 pounds lighter. I was healthier. I was passionate.
I was truly awake!
Over the course of the past year, my little blog has grown into a very special place for me. It is where I put words to my journey in leading a healthy, vibrant, balanced and well life. Oh don’t you worry, it isn’t always easy! I make many mistakes and I try things that don’t always work out.
But the beauty of a journey is it only requires you to take one small step again.
My blog gives life to my experiences with intuitive eating, a mindful approach to eating that allowed me to stop my fight against food. I also grown to love my body, nourish my body and accept my body for everything that it is through intuitive eating. I have grown and strived to become the definition of a “normal eater,” according to me! I share my new attempts in the kitchen with recipes, how to's, and simple meals, no matter how many times I break a dish or lose my battle against the oven! I also look for ways to be inspired by exercise, to challenge my body to new levels and to play around with lofty goals! And some days, I take a step back and acknowledge the simplicity and the goodness in this life of mine. As a business owner, I am now invested in a program at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition to broaden my skills and bring new knowledge to clients. And I can't help it- I share all the new discoveries from this venture!
My place within the world of health, nutrition and fitness changes and grows as I keep on learning.
But most importantly, my dream for Live Well Fit Now is to be a continued place of inspiration. A place for understanding and warmth for each and every individual out there who is looking to take a step here or a step there in living well! So much has come from creating this blog and opening my mind to a new world of health and a community of bloggers that make me better everyday.
So come on by to LiveWellFitNow Share inspiration on a leading a life that keeps you awake and let’s spread some love!
