    On Friday November 25th, I visited MP Rob Oliphant On Friday November 25th, I visited MP Rob Oliphant with members of The Greater Toronto Kurdish House. This is not my first time visiting MP’s regarding human rights violations against the Kurdish population in Iran, Turkey, Iraq and Syria. Kurdish cities in Iran have become completely militarized and the Turkish regime continues their ethnic cleansing campaign against the Kurds in Northeastern Syria. While lobbying for the Kurdish cause, Mr. Oliphant had asked about homophobia in our community. He is a gay man; LGBTQ issues are personal to him. I was transparent. It is hugely taboo and many LGBTQ people in those regions face the threat of death. It is possible to both lobby for human rights for your people and discuss the complexity and danger of social and religious conservatism. Sweeping these issues under the rug doesn’t paint your people in a better light. In fact, it does the opposite since people already know. Hiding facts will make you appear ignorant or conniving. Like how many Iranians hide the fact that Jîna (Mahsa) was a Kurdish woman because they don’t wish to discuss how badly Kurds are oppressed in Iran and how racist the culture can be against Kurds. By hiding facts, the movement to take down the Iranian regime is not as unified as it could be. It’s hard for everyone to come together when your identity is always a problem. #kurdistan #humanrights #transparancy #jinaamini #lgbtq

    “My aunt doesn’t want me working out; she says “My aunt doesn’t want me working out; she says it’ll make me look like a man.” And what does your aunt do? Nothing but sit at home. Interesting how the people who do the least have the most to say and critique about our choices. People who are in your community or family love tearing you down because they want to keep you where they are comfortable - that’s their comfort zone. Other people’s discomfort with your growth is not your problem. You can’t help those who want to stay where they are, those who love to stay down. Stay up and keep up with the people who want and love to see you succeed. #stayup #highvibes #notyourproblem #crabsinabucket
    Would you go to the gym and try to squat 500 lbs o Would you go to the gym and try to squat 500 lbs on your first day? Obviously not…so why apply the same way of thinking with nutrition? Pick one ☝🏾 meal that you feel is the most convenient to perk up, and see if you can do that consistently until it becomes easy. Then move on to another meal. Maybe you know you need to add protein to your breakfast, but don’t have time to cook. Why not get a protein powder or buy some protein bars? That was easy. Let’s move on to lunch… Can you buy some high protein wraps and throw in some tuna, chicken, steak, and maybe cheese? Have an apple or orange on the side. Start with one or two meals that you really like and can do all the time and you’ll gain the momentum you need for the next step. P.S. It doesn’t have to look pretty and it will probably be boring - but eventually, the boring meal leads to freedom of the mind! #onestepatatime #nutrition #apple #protein #tunawrap #proteinshake #womenshealth #consistency #keepitsimple
    Fahmida, 38, is a speech pathologist and busy prof Fahmida, 38, is a speech pathologist and busy professional. She wanted to improve her eating habits, change her physique, and learn a little boxing along the way. Here are some photos of her just three months apart. There’s an obvious difference in her weight-loss, posture, and vitality. In four months, she lost 15lbs, gained loads of strength, mobility, and focused on an eating system that works for her. We focused on BIG ROCKS 🪨 Diet - eat what you want but hit your high protein goals and stay within daily calorie limit. Steps - at least 7000/ day or 45 min of walking, everyday. Training - Intense, progressive strength training at least three times/ week. Recovery - Get adequate sleep 💤 and massages when necessary. After four intense months, Fahmida felt she was losing motivation and steam - that’s when we CRUISE 🚢 and switch gears ⚙️ BLAST 💥 N’ CRUISE 🚢 Phases of training are important for the body and the mind. Our current training phase includes boxing, technical lifting skills (cleans, snatch, jerks) and athletic development as a nice contrast to our previous BLAST 💥 phase. Can’t BLAST all year round - you’ll burnout and results will fade. Can’t CRUISE all year round if you ever want to see dramatic changes in your physique. So…BLAST💥 N’ CRUISE. Ps. Added two bonus behind the scenes photos 😇 #blastncruise #womenshealth #coaching #personaltraining
