Hey sweet friends,
Welcome to the BootyByMich monthly lifestyle newsletter.
Each month I’ll be sharing with you what books I’m reading, recipes I’m cooking, questions I ask myself, my favorite workout of the month, thoughts I’m having, products I like (no promoted ads here!) and more.
This is a full personal BootyByMich inspiration page as a go-to for staying inspired when it comes to fresh ideas to connect with your mind, body, and environment; from my world to yours.
Two weeks away from the biggest workout of my life.
I feel…grounded?
I feel comfortable in my third trimesters now 9 months pregnant, with way more sense of calm and comfort compared to my first two trimesters.
It feels surreal to be honest. This body, the conversations, the thoughts -this is life…you never know who you will meet and where you might end up. Whoever is reading this- stay open to everything because I only dreamed of living in New York and falling in love and here it is, but we are moving onto the next chapter…
I look at my body with awe. The stretch marks, the bigger boobs, the expansion, exhaustion, aches and pains, how it feels to move and exercise and stretch. This body, that I know so well has changed so much that it continuously has felt foreign and I just had to adapt, accept and know that this is the body I know and love at the foundation, its just experiencing many stages of change… (and so much more to come).
I am proud of myself for the slow down I have given myself permission to feel physically. It is the best gift I could give myself, the powerful to just…be slow, say no, do less and give my body what it craves when it wants something. The ultimate mind-body connection with the utmost love and appreciation taught through what I preach in BBM; dialogue, breath, movement, visualization all comes together of my mat into daily life.
I learned I can plan all I want, but the truth is, I have no idea what is going to happen and how it will unfold. I know that I have no choice other than to breathe, chill out the best I can and work with my body.
BBM is NOT STOPPING!! I want to remind you have access to 600+ workouts at your utmost convenience with new curated weekly workout schedules to keep you moving, motivated, chiseled and on track with your goals each day and every week.
The power is up to YOU to show up for you.
The clear and understandable change (as BBM is just me), for the next ~6 weeks moving forward there will not be as many new videos added, as my body has gone through a lot, needs rest and recover. When I feel ready to move, trust me I’ll be filming! I deeply appreciate you understanding and being patient as I navigate this.
I highly recommend to follow your weekly schedule or explore new workouts you’ve never tried- they are incredible just waiting for you to try out, that is what your membership is about! Unlimited workouts, whenever you want!!
Thank you thank you thank you for being on this journey with me. I seriously can’t wait to get back into my full BBM mode post baby. Ahhh I can’t wait!

I love a good mystery read, this is my current book choice hope you like it!
Cozy soup and food season! I am definitely feeling the winter vibes leaning into soups nights and root vegetables. Here some recipes I’ve tried!
*Please keep in mind that all skin types are different.
This may not work for everyone, but this is what I use :)
My back is FEELING IT after packing for the move, and I am freaking determined to open up my chest and pull those shoulders back where they were before all this moving began! I am committing to the 7 days POSTURE/UPPER BODY posture program! If you’re travelling and need a posture/ arms reset this is for you!
How are you feeling in your body?
How would you describe your relationship with it?
When do you notice shifts in your body? (Stressed?seasonal?food related?travel?)
What do you love and appreciate most about your body in this specific time of your life?
What was something you wish you could tell your younger self to love more about it?
What are three words that describe your relationship with yourself?
We want to hear your story! Your motivation, authenticity and experience is worth sharing and I can’t wait to hear how you got started, where you are now, and what you are working towards, your experience with BootyByMich and how it has impacted your life. How long have you been a member for? One week, or over a year? What’s your BBM routine like? Share the vibe of your environment you create for yourself, any rituals you have before movements?!
You have the ability to share your ups and downs with us, and motivate us all. Send me a message to be spotlighted in the future. Pictures of progress can be sent too (I would love to see your progress, but no pressure at all!)
I am so excited to begin the new year with you all, continuing to grow this community all over the world!
You are my biggest motivation and I thank you for that.
Let’s ease into 2025 with patience, intention and enjoyment, as we build one block at a time for achieving a strong foundation for a long lasting healthy and happy way of living.
