WE LOVE OUR COUSIN!!!! GO MIMI!!!!
This is a really great series. I love Mimi's personality, and that she's not every other typical vlogger. She is so dedicated to her amazing outlet of exercise! Kol Hacavod. Looking forward to more amazing episodes!
woah
Oh wow! Mimi all I can say, and I mean it, is I'm dying to do this! Few things:
A- I don't and won't drive, NYC public trans is disaster, and car service is gonna leave me with an empty bank.
B- Are you not afraid of bears, snakes, etc. etc?
C- I know this is mindset work, but for real, I have my house quiet from 10-3. The rest of the time I have a bunch of little ones. How do I create space for this?
If you don't mind giving me a bit of insight, breaking this down in tidbits, how did you start, how did you get here... Will soso appreciate it!
Hey Miry! That’s a lot of material right there!
A- there are train stops that go direct to Cold Spring Ny - where there is an excellent trailhead that leads to a few hikes ! Or perhaps you can split the car service with a few friends?
B- the more knowledge you have of how to navigate that situation, the calmer you are.
c - I started off shorter and closer to home - nature preserves, park runs etc. and once my kids schedules got longer, and they adapted to the lifestyle, I took longer days. For the most part they are proud and excited to take part! And prep, prep- dinner ahead of time, bag packed the night before, and no wasted time 😉
OMG 😆 that is awesome 😎👏 Mabe I can do that trail someday ☺️💜💞🩵keep being the amazing inspiration…. bH
