I am five weeks post L5-S1 disc replacement and my back feels so much better. The one thing that was still bugging me was nerve pain in my leg at night. That is until I met the H Wave. I had shared that I was...
What. A. Week. We’re officially 4 weeks post Spine disc replacement surgery. While I’m not exactly running marathons or deadlifting small cars...
I may or may not have texted my disc replacement neurosurgeon this week and said, “Apparently you gave me a Brazilian booty lift as a bonus.” Did he respond with laughing emojis? No. But I stand by it. Here’s why: I’m officially 3 weeks post-disc replacement and apparently my...
I’ve been through my fair share of setbacks. Actually, scratch that. I’ve had a collection of setbacks. Like I could start a museum of "Well, that didn’t go as planned" moments. From my original rock bottom before I ever got into health and fitness, to injuries, hormonal...
Let’s just say I unintentionally did something I haven’t done in years: I took an entire week off. No podcasts recordings. No meetings. No coaching. No 127 browser tabs open. Just rest. I had blocked the whole week off on my calendar but normally, the...
I’m likely in surgery. Yep, today is the day I’m finally getting my L5-S1 disc replacement. I’ve shared a lot about this decision, and I’ll be sharing even more as I recover and retrain my body with the new disc. But just know, if you’ve...

💌 Notes from Natalie. Let’s talk about that time this week when I walked into a doctor’s office totally fine… and walked out needing a nap, a therapy session, and maybe a pink margarita (and I do not even drink) I was there for a simple pre-surgical clearance. Easy....
Notes from Natalie. Vegas in My 50s… It’s a Whole Thing. I just got back from Vegas earlier this week and wow… It was ½ for business and ½ for me and Brooks 10 year anniversary! TEN YEARS! Dang time flies! I had fun but I also...
Big Update First… Let’s start with something I never thought I’d say: I’m excited for back surgery. I know, wild. But let’s be real — I’ve had more repairs than a classic pink restored car at this point. I joke that I’m about 99% bionic already, so this...
Sometimes it’s tips and tools… sometimes it’s tough love… and sometimes, like today, it’s personal. Let me start by saying this loud and clear: I’ve. Tried. It. All. Before you send me a message with your favorite oil, your miracle stretch, your cousin’s chiropractor, or that one TikTok...
