If you know me, you know I’m all about balance—savoring life, enjoying the treats, and never living in restriction mode. But here’s the truth that nobody wants to admit: sometimes, “balance” can get a little blurry.
For me, there came a point where my idea of balance turned into, “Oh, it’s fine, I’ll have the treat,” a little too often. One glass of wine here, a couple of handfuls of snacks there, and suddenly my “balanced” lifestyle was really just…saying yes to everything and feeling off in my own body🥴 (this isn’t always fun to admit, but YES I am human and still struggle with it too sometimes!) I was tired, bloated, and just kind of “meh.”
The wake-up call? I realized I was using “balance” as a permission slip for inconsistency. And honestly, I was over it. I wanted to feel GOOD again. I wanted my energy back, my confidence back, and most of all—I wanted to prove to myself that I could still keep a promise, even when it felt tough.
That’s when the idea for my 10-Day Metabolic Reset was born.
Why I Chose to Go “All In” (for Ten Days)
Let’s be clear: I didn’t create this reset to punish myself. I created it because I needed a way to break the cycle. I needed to press pause on the endless little “yeses” and remind myself how it feels to show up fully for my own goals.
The Reset isn’t about being extreme forever. It’s a short, focused window where you commit to yourself. Ten days. That’s it. No crazy supplements, no all-day workouts, no starving yourself. Just real food, real support, and a real plan to get you feeling like YOU again.
Here’s what happened when I did it:
- My energy came roaring back.
- My cravings basically disappeared.
- The bloat? Gone. I felt SO light.
- My momentum got rolling…this was a small step that led to MAJOR results.
- Most importantly, I felt proud. Like, “I actually did this!” proud.
And I realized: sometimes the most loving thing you can do is challenge yourself for a hot minute. That’s what I wanted to share with my community—because I know I’m not the only one who gets stuck in the “balance” trap.
When “All In” Actually Is Balance
Here’s what I really want you to take away:
Balance isn’t about never saying yes to a challenge. Balance is about knowing when you need to push and when you need to pause. It’s about having the right tools for every season.
The 10-Day Metabolic Reset is just one tool in your toolbox. It’s the “let’s go!” button you can hit any time you need a reset, results, or just to remind yourself how strong you really are. And after it’s over? You get to settle back into your sustainable habits with new energy (and proof you can do hard things).
You don’t have to live in “reset mode”—you just get to use it when you need it.
What Actually Happens During the 10-Day Reset?
- Simple, step-by-step plan—no guesswork, no crazy supplements
- Daily hype from me and a community of women who get it (Accountability group runs July 7-16th)
- You finish with a clean slate, a revved-up metabolism, and that unshakeable “I did it!” confidence
Ready for a Mid-Summer Reset? Join Us!
Because doing this together is SO much more powerful, we’re running a special accountability group for the 10-Day Reset July 7–16th. This is honestly the perfect mid-summer reset—especially if you’re feeling a little “blah” after the 4th of July holiday (I see you, chips & margaritas crew).
We added the group last time and it was magic. The support, the hype, the daily check-ins, and sharing wins (and struggles!) made it so much more fun—and let’s be honest, it’s way easier to stick to your goals when you’re in it together.
Here’s what you need to know:
- If you’re already in our Goal Body world or have purchased the reset before, you’ll be automatically added to the accountability group this Thursday!
- We’re opening the group early this time (thanks, holiday weekend!) so we can do introductions, set intentions, and get to know each other before we kick off.
- If you don’t have the reset yet…babe, what are you waiting for? This is your sign. Grab it now, and come join us for the most supportive, empowering 10 days of your summer. (plus, you get to keep it forever AND you get added to every Accountability group we include going forward!)
The Real Truth: Loving Yourself Means Knowing When to Go All In
If you’re wondering if “all in” has a place in a balanced life, remember this:
Sometimes loving yourself means pushing yourself, keeping your promises, and proving to yourself what you’re capable of.
Balance isn’t avoiding challenge—it’s having the courage to do what you need, when you need it.
If you’re ready for that, CLICK HERE to grab the Reset.

My Favorite Sweet Treat Right Now
Okay, shared this on socials but realized it needs a permanent place on the blog. Here’s my current go-to for when I want a healthy treat that feels a little extra:
Snicker Dates
- 1 Medjool date, pitted and sliced down the middle
- 1 tsp natural peanut butter (fill the date)
- 1 tsp dark chocolate chips (melted and drizzled on top)
- 3g chopped peanuts, sprinkled over
- Flaky sea salt (seriously—it makes it!)
Macros for one: 145 calories | 22g carbs | 6g fat | 3g protein
Takes two minutes, totally kid-approved, and perfect for those “I need something now” moments. I keep a few ready in the fridge and they are perfection!
Let me know if you make the recipe and I hope I’ll be seeing you in the Reset group when we kick off officially July 7th!
xo, Hilary
