The Mirror Moment:

When I Knew It Was Time to Find My Fit Again

 

​I walked into the dressing room at Bloomingdale’s, hung up the clothes I was carrying, and began to undress. Standing there in my bra and underwear, I glanced at the mirror and froze. “Who is that?” I whispered.

​

Staring back at me was a woman I barely recognized. Her light, the light I was known for had dimmed. The vibrancy in her eyes was gone. She looked tired. Worn down. Sad. And then I realized… that woman was me.

​

I scanned my body. Yes, I had gained some weight over my strong, muscular frame. But it was more than that. My cheeks had lost their lift. My forehead was tight with a permanent scowl. My eyes were puffy, my expression heavy, and I felt… ugly. Harsh. Lost. And I thought, Wait a minute...aren’t you the joyful, radiant, strong, and yes, cute woman everyone knows as Get Fit with Nik?

​

In that moment, I had to face a hard truth: I had been pouring into everyone and everything but myself. I had nothing left to give me. I was chasing, controlling, forcing, and holding onto things that no longer served me. I was making excuses, staying stuck, and slowly losing myself in the process. I said out loud, “Friend, what is going on?”

​

That moment in the mirror changed everything. I realized I couldn’t help others find their fit if I had lost my own. It was time to stop, reset, and choose me! To rebuild, recalibrate, and rediscover what made me feel good physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
