Fit for Success: How Wellness Fuels Career Excellence
Introduction:
Hey Boo Hey! Welcome back to our vibrant space where we dive deep into not just thriving in our personal lives but also excelling in our careers through wellness. Today, we're unpacking the treasures from our latest episode of Wake Up Happy, Sis titled "Fit for Success: The Career Woman’s Guide to Thriving," where we explored the potent blend of fitness, nutrition, and mental sharpness—not just for your body, but as key ingredients for career success.
Starting Your Day on a High Note
Every successful day begins the night before. In this episode, we shared how to kick off your mornings with energizing activities that boost both energy and efficiency. From guided meditations setting your intentions for the day to power breakfasts that don’t just fill you but fuel you. Remember, how you start your day often dictates its course. An upbeat playlist can be the difference between a sluggish morning and hitting the ground running. Music isn’t just food for the soul; it energizes our bodies and preps us for a day of productivity.
Nutrition that Powers Your Workday
Your brain’s performance is heavily tied to what you eat. We discussed how integrating brain foods like blueberries, walnuts, and even dark chocolate into your diet can boost cognitive function, helping you tackle complex tasks with better focus and creativity. And let’s not forget about hydration—keeping that water bottle close isn’t just good practice; it's essential for maintaining concentration and staving off the mid-afternoon slump.
Exercise: A Tool for Career Advancement
Who said workouts are just for physical fitness? We dove into simple yet effective exercises that you can weave into your busy schedules. Whether it’s a quick session of deskercise between meetings or a five-minute yoga break to realign, staying active throughout the day keeps your energy levels up and your mind sharp.
Mental Fitness for Longevity in Your Career
Your career isn’t a sprint; it’s a marathon. Maintaining mental and emotional wellness is crucial, especially in high-pressure environments. We explored mindfulness practices, cognitive-behavioral strategies, and the importance of regular digital detoxes to keep your mind clear and focused.
The Takeaway
Remember, integrating fitness into your daily routine doesn’t just improve your health; it enhances your professional performance, setting you up for success in every area of your life. Every step towards enhancing your well-being is a step towards elevating your career.

What's the story of Wake Up Happy, Sis?
Hey sis, I was you once. I was overwhelmed and unappreciated by the people I worked so hard to support. I was depressed but I had learned how to hide it well. “Fake it ‘till you make it," was my favorite quote back then and I was a master at it. I was unfulfilled, morbidly obese (from childhood trauma), and just felt defeated even though I had a flourishing career and a lot of friends. I felt like I was always the one who had to sacrifice for others… I sacrificed for my children, my friends, my family, my career; it never seemed to end. I felt like that is what I was SUPPOSED to do as a good mother, friend, employee. Boy was I wrong!
When I was stressed, baby, I stressed everyone around me. I snapped at my children more. I was b*tchy towards my friends and family and this caused my personal relationships to suffer. My professional relationships suffered and I was even passed over for a promotion that I definitely should have received based on the value that I brought to the company. You can say, I felt lonely, even in a crowd.
So I realized I had to change or I would surely die. I needed happiness and balance. I needed boundaries and love and peace. But I was very worried how my changes would affect my family, friends, and professional connections. Change would definitely hurt or leave some behind. I just couldn’t take everyone with me or I would continue to hold myself back. My change would be disruptive because they needed me - I definitely had that superwoman cape on tight!
I knew that I needed to do something drastic and different, so I decided to bet on me first! I decided to prioritize my self-care and wellness because I needed to Wake Up Happy, Sis!
So I ended unhealthy relationships and practices that weren’t serving me and were in fact bad for my physical, emotional and mental well-being. I went where I was celebrated, not just tolerated. I filled my self-care toolkit with all the tools and resources I needed to help make this change - that took me 15 years! I decided to start the Wake Up Happy, Sis! Movement to help my sisters learn what took me 15 years!
Sis, it’s time to re-prioritize yourself. Just like having a fitness partner, you need a self care accountability partner. We all need accountability to reset, refresh, and reconnect to our true self. Let me help you find your happy, healed, and whole self.
WELCOME TO THE WAKE UP HAPPY, SIS! NETWORK.
I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE YOU SMILE!
