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.

Little/ no equipment needed, deep chisels and results
For The Eyes
By Daisy Jones & The Six
Based on the band members of a 1960’s Rock n’ Roll band, this book is not written in a traditional way as there is an interviewer asking the character questions and their answers create the story of the book. There is minimal dialogue, yet it is raw and real. I enjoyed the character development and how quickly I read this! If you’re looking for a quick easy fun read, this is your next book!
*Please keep in mind that all skin types are different.
This may not work for everyone, but this is what I use :)
I LOVE donating clothes when a new season is coming.
I currently have two big bags filled with clothes, shoes, sheets, etc, and recently took a trip to the Container Shop to purchase some organization bins for some spaces in our home. It makes such a difference when the closets are less cluttered!
Here is what I bought to help the clutter!
There are five programs for you to focus on leading up to the new year, mix and match if you’d like!
All programs have journal prompts and recommended music playlists to lead you to create a stronger relationship with yourself on and off of the mat. Enjoy exploring your mind and body.
Write a list of things you want to *stop doing. We have “to-do” lists but then there are lists of this we need to not do!
Make a list of what you notice you are prioritizing and what you are putting off.
Take yourself to a new coffee shop.
Do something different. Whatever that means to you.
If you feel like you have fallen off the wagon… what are somethings you can do to get back on! Keep it simple. Ex: you haven’t exercised in awhile, and you want to get back into it… choose a few videos that are 5-10 min long just to get back into it. All these small moments add up!! Don’t give up.
5 deep breaths.
5 minutes of stillness
5 minutes of writing or choosing 5 words to invite into your day/ life.
Try to do this daily or as many times a week as you can, when it can easily fit into your day.
I’ve known Mich for over 10 years, and while I haven’t always been perfectly consistent with her workouts, I can absolutely tell when I fall off. When I stick with them, everything clicks into place — my mood is lighter, my journaling gets deeper, and my mind feels sharper. And as a bonus, my body feels longer, leaner, and way stronger. As a runner and avid outdoor adventurer, I need that dedicated time to slow down, connect with my body, feel those deep burns, and trust that the work I’m putting in is literally helping me conquer mountains. For the past 5 months following a breakup, I’ve committed to her weekly schedule, making it a priority to carve out this mat time for myself. It's so easy! We’re all busy, but there’s a real sense of accomplishment that comes with showing up for yourself in that way. My posture has improved, my running performance has skyrocketed, and I swear I’m standing taller — even if that’s just in my head, I’ll take it. If you’re looking for consistency, support, and true strength inside and out, BBM’s workouts deliver. They’re more than just fitness; they’ve transformed me — mind, body, and soul.
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 2024 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.
