Kinstretch with Alex

I have mixed feelings about turning 30 today

I’m simultaneously ready to say goodbye to my 20’s while (at times 😉) resistant to say hello to my 30’s

The universe leaves me no choice though 🙄😝

In all seriousness, any reservation that I have about turning 30 is wrapped up in a “should” statement. And, simply being aware of that makes it easy to override

My sub 20 years were filled with LOADS of fun, sports, time outdoors, and tons of time with loved ones

My 20’s were filled with a LOT of grinding, ultimately leaving less time for everything else

Much of this grinding was fuelled by those “should” statements which are ultimately previously subconscious beliefs:

“I should be working 14hr days in construction so I can pay to go to University”

“I should be studying my butt off in Kinesiology to get into physio school”

“I should be studying FOR physio school + licensing exams”

“I should STILL be studying because I want to set my clients up for success”

“I should be working right now” (classic self-employed thought trap)

etc…

Don’t get me wrong. A LOT of good (and so many valuable lessons) came out of the decade of grinding!

But for me, I think it is time for the “shoulds” to take a back seat 😉.

The goal for my 30’s - which has been in action for a while now - is to strike more of a balance ⚖️ between grinding and simply living.

Work hard, but LIVE more.

Study hard, but LAUGH more.

And now that much of my job requires being on screens so much, this needs to be balanced by WAY more time in nature ⛰😍

And, significantly more time socializing as running your own business(es) can be isolating ❤️

I’m extremely confident in my ability to make each of these happen and am veeerrrryy much looking forward to ALL of it!

So, here’s to 30 and the next decade of living! 🥳✌🏻⛰

I think this is the most desperate I’ve ever been for spring 🥲

The weather here keeps teasing me.

-30 over night 🥶 and then +2 this afternoon☀️

It’s been playing this game for a few weeks along with the “let’s melt 90% of the snow and then give them 8 inches of snow overnight” game 🙄

This photo was my first hike last year when I was cheesin at ground after the snow finally melted

I’ll be making faces at the ground today too, just not the same one 🙃

Free Zoom Meetings

I have been reaching out to many of the incredible people that have been in OHF/KWA since day one to set up Zoom meetings

I am now I’m extending the invitation to all of my OHF members

The purpose of these meetings is to get to know you better and for ME to learn from YOU (turning the tables 🔁😉)

I want to know what your goals are, what’s been most helpful for you in the subscription (what classes, sections, etc.), how YOU think we can make the subscription even better or even more helpful to you, etc.

At the end of the day the better I know my people and what they need, the better I can cater the content and resources in OHF to serve you and your goals 👊🏻

I am BEYOND happy and proud of the platform, the content in it, and amazing feedback and stories about how it continues to help people 🥰.

I really think that one of the biggest reasons that OHF has become such an incredible and truly unique platform is because of YOU.

It has become a unique reflection of myself (and what I think people need) AND my people in OHF (and what you guys want/need) thanks to the conversations that I’ve had with you.

I value EVERY single conversation and right now I’m dedicating as much time as I can to hearing more about those of you in OHF, your goals, and your feedback.

I may not be able to schedule the meeting immediately as we do have a lot of members and I still have a full caseload of physical therapy clients and the OHF filming schedule that I need to work around, however I WILL schedule you in as soon as I can!

I reserve time in the calls to answer questions that you have for me as well.

If you want to set up a meeting or want more details, hit me up!

Much love and appreciation for you all ❤️
