Welcome to the Bloom Challenge

Have you ever started a fitness or wellness program only to feel overwhelmed, bored, or burned out halfway through? You’re not alone. Programs like 75 Hard and 75 Soft can be inspiring, but for many, they feel too long, rigid, and repetitive to sustain. I’ve been there—and that’s exactly why I created the Bloom Challenge.

The Bloom Challenge is a 25-day path to growth, designed to help you build healthy habits in a way that’s manageable, flexible, and motivating. It’s not about perfection or intensity—it’s about progress, one day at a time.

The Concept

The Bloom Challenge breaks the journey into three 25-day stages:

  1. Budding: Laying the foundation for healthy habits.
  2. Blooming: Growing stronger and more confident.
  3. Flourishing: Thriving and stepping fully into your full potential.

You can complete these stages back-to-back or take breaks between them if needed. The flexibility allows you to adapt the program to your lifestyle, whether you’re on vacation or simply need a pause.

Unlike traditional programs, this approach gradually builds in intensity. By focusing on smaller, achievable steps, each 25-day stage sets you up for success. And the best part? You can go at your own pace and choose what works best for you.

  • Flexible Workouts: Pick the movement you enjoy, whether it’s walking, yoga, dancing, or strength training.
  • Customizable Meals: Focus on balanced, healthy eating that fits your preferences and lifestyle.
  • Short, Realistic Goals: Each stage is only 25 days, making it easier to stay focused and motivated.

The Four Pillars of the Bloom Challenge

The Bloom Challenge focuses on four key areas of wellness. Here’s how each area progresses through the stages:

  1. Hydration:
    • Budding: Drink 50 oz of water daily.
    • Blooming: Drink 65 oz of water daily.
    • Flourishing: Drink 80 oz of water daily.
      Gradually increasing water intake helps your body adjust and stay hydrated without feeling overwhelmed.
  2. Movement:
    • Budding: Move your body for 25 minutes daily.
    • Blooming: Move for 30 minutes daily, including two days of strength training or higher-intensity exercise.
    • Flourishing: Move for 45 minutes daily, incorporating strength, cardio, and flexibility exercises.
      Starting small prevents injury and builds a strong foundation for more intense workouts.
  3. Nutrition:
    • Budding: Eat one healthy, nutrient-dense meal daily.
    • Blooming: Eat two healthy, nutrient-dense meals daily.
    • Flourishing: Eat three healthy, nutrient-dense meals daily.
      This gradual approach makes meal prep manageable and encourages sustainable eating habits.
  4. Self-Care:
    • Budding: Spend 10 minutes daily on self-care.
    • Blooming: Spend 15 minutes daily on self-care, deepening your practices.
    • Flourishing: Spend 20 minutes daily on self-care, focusing on mindfulness and goal-setting.
      Self-care evolves to nurture both mental and emotional well-being as you progress.

Why I Created the Bloom Challenge

I believe wellness should feel empowering, not overwhelming. Here are the reasons behind this program:

  • Avoiding Burnout: Long challenges can be discouraging. Breaking the journey into three 25-day sections keeps things fresh, manageable, and exciting.
  • Celebrating Progress: After each 25-day stage, you’ll have the satisfaction of achieving a goal and the motivation to keep going. Small wins lead to big results.
  • Flexibility is Key: Everyone’s wellness journey looks different. By allowing you to choose your workouts and meals, this program works for your unique needs.
  • Building Momentum: Each stage is designed to help you grow, so you’re not starting from scratch—you’re building on a strong foundation.

What Makes the Bloom Challenge Different?

  • Shorter, More Achievable Stages: Instead of 75 days straight, you’ll tackle three 25-day programs with clear goals and increasing intensity.
  • Encouragement, Not Pressure: The focus is on progress, not perfection. Every small step matters.
  • A Balanced Approach: The program emphasizes hydration, movement, healthy meals, and self-care, ensuring you grow holistically.
  • No Alcohol Restriction: Unlike many programs, the Bloom Challenge doesn’t restrict alcohol. Instead, it focuses on adding positive habits that naturally lead to healthier choices.

What You’ll Gain
