@carlinjaep you are a genius. Your programming is so thoughtful and intentional, and your knowledge and support have been a total game changer this year.

@the_jess_green not only an incredible athlete, but so kind and humble. A true leader and a friend and I’m so grateful to train alongside you.

@erinfeltonn one of the smartest people I know. You know my ability better than I do, and I’m so grateful you share your knowledge so generously. Always the voice of reason (without you, I’d go out wayyyy too hot in every event).

@cfjessie and @thealtitudeleader are truly some of the best humans I have ever met. I cannot say enough good things about you both. I have learned so much about CrossFit, strategy, mindset, and how to be a true leader from these guys. And I am just so grateful our paths crossed.

@bellis25 through thick and thin, your support never wavers. You pick me up when I’m down, keep me grounded, and remind me of my goals when I get lost in my head. Thank you for doing everything in your power to get me through those qualifiers way back in July (last slide), I wouldn’t have even been close enough to backfill if it wasn’t for you. 🤍

To my incredible friends and everyone who sent messages, thank you. It means more than you’ll ever know. I feel so supported and grateful for my friends and the entire @chocolateboxtraining community.

And to every judge and volunteer at @downunderchampionship none of this would be possible without you. Every judge I had this weekend was so kind and encouraging. This comp is hands down one of the best. So well run, athlete-focused, and an absolute credit to everyone involved.

The version of me I’m chasing is waiting on the other side of the work. by @_sarabellis_

I spent 14 years doing a sport I was good at, but never enjoyed.

I was good, but never great. Talent will open doors, but it’s passion that keeps you walking through them.

I think 18-year-old me would be so proud to know we found a sport we love and that we get to show up every day excited to work hard.

(Also, as the footage suggests, I am in fact that old. It’s possible this was filmed on a VHS. No idea how Dad managed to email it to me 😂)

Open 2026 was unreal

All workouts one and done 🔥🔥🔥 First two weeks with the @chocolateboxtraining crew was so much fun. And finished it off watching the open announcement and doing the workout at WZA. Wild.

Ready to go again tomorrow!

Qualified for my third @torianpro

Stakes are big this year. Competing at this level as a mom with a full-time corporate job isn’t easy, and I’m honoured to share the floor with women who are juggling the same demands!

I’m not sure there’s such a thing as balance when you’re chasing big dreams. I constantly find myself pulled between wanting to be the best mom AND the best athlete.

But at the end of the day, I hope I’ve shown my daughter:

- chasing what you love takes sacrifice, hard work, and discipline
- you can be a fierce competitor and support others
- not everyone will understand your obsession, that’s okay
- strong > skinny
- the outcome will never be as meaningful as what it took to get there

Every step to get here has come with a trade off…and I’m not about to waste it!
