How a Simple Stride Can Boost Your Business and Health

Ever feel like your day's just a marathon between meetings, ticking off to-dos, and pushing for that next big win? I get it. Our entrepreneurial life is like running a never-ending race. But here’s a simple switch-up that can seriously do wonders: walking. Yep, just plain old walking. It’s easy to fit into our crazy schedules and packs a punch in the health department – talking about kicking heart disease, obesity, and stress to the curb.

Why Walking is Fit for a Queen

So, the word on the street (thanks to some deep-dive research) is that walking is kind of a big deal for staying healthy and even living longer. And no, you don’t need to hit that daunting 10,000 steps mark every day to see benefits. Even if you’re more on the 8,000 steps side of things, you’re doing great for your health. The key? Just moving more and sitting less.

For us, Luxe Queens, slipping some walking into our day can do more than just health wonders. It's like a secret weapon for sparking creativity and solving those tricky business puzzles. Think walk-and-talk meetings or taking the stairs instead of the elevator. These small steps (pun intended) not only help us hit those physical activity goals but also give our brains a much-needed breather.

Smart Ways to Step It Up

• Walk-and-Talk Meetings - Why sit when you can walk? Get those meetings moving and those ideas flowing.

• Stair Master - Skip the elevator and take the stairs. Your heart (and butt) will thank you.

• Park and Stride - Park a little further from the office or store. Every step counts.

• Lunch Break Strolls - Take a quick walk during lunch. It’s like hitting the refresh button.

Aim for Your Best

While the experts say aiming for 6,000 to 8,000 steps is great for the more seasoned among us, and 8,000 to 10,000 for the under-60 crowd, remember, this isn’t about hitting a magic number. It’s about feeling good and moving more.

So, let’s lace up those sneakers and make walking a part of our daily routine. It’s an easy win for our health and our business.

Belize with its untouched rainforests, majestic Mayan ruins, and the second largest barrier reef in the world, is more than just a travel destination—it's a beacon for inspiration and rejuvenation.

Alycia M. Huston's vision for the retreat is rooted in the belief that environments of natural beauty and cultural significance can catalyze meaningful change and growth.

Luxe Trivia Answer

Madam C.J. Walker
Entrepreneur, Philanthropist, and Activist

Sarah Breedlove–who later would come to be known as Madam C. J. Walker–was born on December 23, 1867 on the same Delta, Louisiana plantation where her parents, Owen and Minerva Anderson Breedlove, had been enslaved before the end of the Civil War.  This child of sharecroppers transformed herself from an uneducated farm laborer and laundress into one of the twentieth century’s most successful, self-made women entrepreneurs.
