Q&A

Publié par Gaelle.R

what's your favorite fruit?

water melon.

do you have any pet peeves?

I have a lot! among them are : slow drivers, people who chew with their mouths open, men who uses acronyms instead of forming a clear sentence (girls tend to spell their words out) if you're a grown man don't send me "wyd, hy" I will block you, people who sits on their phones and not exercising on a machine that I need to use at the gym, people who touch me without my consent.

what's your favorite exercise?

RDLS :)))))

what's your least favorite exercise?

back lunges but they hurt so good.

Do you like sneakers or heels?

uhm both but if I can wear heels I will pick heels because it makes me look taller and I feel powerful in them. 

what show you find overrated?

Friends. I just don't really find that show funny at all. but one show I wish I could watch is game of thrones only because of Khaleesi the mother of dragons! her edits are fire on tiktok she's soooo powerful but I heard she died at the end... I didn't watch the show and I am disappointed. I can't watch that show there's too much incest, explicit scenes and other things my conscience won't let slide...

Is there something in life you wish you could do?

I wish I could just wake up and not have to do my hair and for it to look perfect all the time. For my hair to be halfway decent I need to sleep with a bonnet on to minimize the frizz and to protect my curls from drying up on my pillow. I have to spray my curls with a curl refresher, or apply some hair products to make it look presentable... let me not get started on wash day and twisting methods...I love my hair but it needs work to look pretty I can't just wake up and go.

what's something you want to try?

Pilates! every time I schedule a class I end up just going to my gym to lift weights instead lol 

what do you like to do in the summer?

walk on the beach to watch the sunset :)))))

why do you like extroverts?

they bring out the fun side out of me, they make me laugh, they're so lively and free.. They talk a lot and I love to talk... so all of that makes my life better. They get me out of my comfort zone, force me to try new things. I have to marry an extrovert otherwise I'll be miserable.

Things I love about me :)

Publié par Gaelle.R

For self love purpose let's all create a list of things we like about ourselves and make it good ! (don't be modest)

here's mine.

  • My ability to adapt to any environment. At first I will complain that I hate change but as soon as I am in that environment it's like I've been there for years lol. I have the ability to blend yet still stand out but not in a bad way. Some people know me and I don't even know who they are (that's the power of my presence)
  • my ability to move on from anything. At first I will overreact because I am very dramatic but after I am done which usually last less than 1 day I will act like nothing happen and no it's not an act I did actually move on. Maybe it's my abandonment issues ( I need more therapy for that but bare with me), my past traumas but I expect the worse from people and when they disappoint me It doesn't surprise me anymore... which makes it easier for me to just move on and go one with my life.
  • my positive outtake on life. I am very positive now and it wasn't always like that, back in 2021-2022 when I went through the worse depressive episode of my life I was super negative (I actually wanted to die but Jehovah my God was there and every time I cried it felt like he was holding me) I am soo positive now and I think it's because I work out a lot and that releases a lot of happy hormones in my brain which helps tremendously. 
  • my kindness. Often people doesn't want to believe how kind I am! I am an empath I understand people's emotion so believe me I know when I hurt someone and it hurts me more knowing that I caused it. I try to keep things light because the more I overthink the more likely I will have a depressive episode (I haven't had one in 2 years!) I am really nice, I look out for other people, at times I will put others needs before my own but now I am learning not to do that because a lot of people took my kindness for granted.
  • my ability not to care but only the people who gets on my last nerves. when I am dealing with a narcissist I know! I have done a lot of inner work, read a ton about narcissistic behaviors that I chose to ignore those people and not care about them.
  • how unique I am. I am very comfortable with who I am and I wouldn't change for anything. There are good and bad things about me but the good outweighs the bad. Plus I am funny at times so that makes it more fun :)

My main focus right now is gut health, prioritizing core work outs. I really want to heal my gut, I hold a lot traumas in my gut because our brain does connect to our gut. When you're experiencing a heartbreak your gut also hurts, it's as if someone plunge something in your stomach. I don't have the best digestive system, I recently stopped eating after 7pm and that has changed my life. I eat less red meat because that takes longer to digest... when I wake up at 5am I have a better digestive system eventually I will switch most of my work outs for early mornings but for now just baby steps.

Let them...

Publié par Gaelle.R

They want to break up with you, let them.

Don't beg them to stay, hold the door for them on their way out.

They stop talking to you, let them.

Don't ask them why, it's their choice just make more friends.

They pick someone else over you, let them.

Their rejection is not a representation of your worth just focus on you.

They said they don't love you, let them.

someone else will be crazy about you and as long as you love yourself that's all that matters.

The difference between discipline and motivation

Publié par Gaelle.R

There is a huge difference between being motivated to do something and being disciplined by consistently doing something. The main difference is that motivation happens fast and it often compels you to do something in particular but that feeling doesn't last for long, but when you are discipline you do that thing in particular even when you don't feel like doing it but you do it because of the benefits. 

For example if you are always waiting for motivation to work out you might only work out 5 days out of the year because some days are tougher than others. To be able to show up to the gym weekly you have to be disciplined because the weather changes, your body will get tired, your mood may not always be positive but you show up because you know your future self will thank you. To take a walk during your lunch break outside when you could have taken a nap or simply stays on your phone that's discipline! but to suddenly get up and do 10 pushups that's motivation because the candle burns so bright but it burns out fast!

Giving 20%, 10%, 50 % and 100% another day is consistency mixed with discipline but doing 100% once in a bleu moon is just motivation. You need an outside source or drive to get you fully motivated but discipline is all you and your hard work. what if nothing gets you motivated then you'll do nothing but when you have discipline you will still complete your goal even if you don't feel motivated because you know there's a reward waiting for you at the finish line.

5am vs 6pm work out?

Publié par Gaelle.R

I love both times now but on certain days I can only do the afternoon and on some days morning is best for me. I worked out at 5 am this morning and I feel great. Those rainy days haven't been good for me, I have been feeling really tired but waking up early to get my work out done feels good so I can enjoy the rest of the day but I have to be in bed by 9pm in order for me to wake up at 5 am. 

I trained my legs/glutes today so I have to sit down a lot more at work when I could've stand but thank God it's not that busy because my legs are exhausted. I can't wait to get home to lay down but I am not tired is just my legs/glutes are sore

Dating scares me! there I say it. I get so annoyed with men, at times I just don't want to be around any men and I don't want to fake laugh at their dumb jokes, dogging their kisses after they take me out or even listen to them speak. Last weekend a man was trying to take me out on a date to watch a movie and I straight up tell him I am going home after the gym and I am not coming back outside! he was shocked. I love my peaceful life! I go to the gym, read my books, get my matcha latte in the morning and I get excited every time, I do my skin care routine and my hair care routine, cook my meals, take care of my plant Elie, clean my apartment, and take lots of naps with my cats... like I love it ! I am not stressing at all.

Imagine a man who's not intentional coming into my life messing up my routines and my sleeping schedule!? I am happy alone. I am so ready to stop talking to any men because I love my peace and most of the time I don't want to listen to a man breathe unless I am ovulating. Like leave me alone damn. I hate when a man I have no interest in is clearly undressing me with his eyes like sir I have nothing for you. 

Imagine me coming home tired and a man is waiting for me to call!!! like dude no. Ugh I don't know I must really love that man to put up with him.

the weather

Publié par Gaelle.R

I have been feeling exhausted lately because of the rain, I don't like rainy weather because I get sad and sleepy. Working out has been good but yesterday's work out didn't hit as much as I would like I gave 30 % and that's better than nothing. My energy was so low yesterday in the afternoon, I will start going to the gym at 5 am to see how it goes because working out late in the afternoon is not working! I am way too sleepy. I have a ton of energy in the morning but my afternoon is not so good.
