Meet your go-everywhere local guide to the most inspirational instructors, haute exercise studios and insider stores (and stuff) to shop.

Through this site, I want to motivate you to take a leap of faith—in fitness and fashion.

For the past decade, I’ve lived in New York City, working at some of the most popular fashion magazines and coveted luxury brands.  I’ve flown on private planes, produced runway shows, celebrated international designers and escorted celebrities on the red carpet.

I’ve learned that sprinting in 4-inch heels is really an indispensable life skill.

Seriously.

And, so is relieving stress and challenging one’s sense of possibility through consistent exercise and optimistic, yet realistic goal-setting—at the gym, on the bike, in your head.

Because, to me, nothing beats a fierce sweat…or a heart-pounding pair of heels.
