I am sooo incredibly excited to announce that GetFitWithLynds is now The Balanced Brunette! I’m sure it has been a little confusing for some (even myself!), since the name change is so sudden and different, but I am beyond excited for this next chapter!
The reason behind the name change:
When my blog was GetFitWithLynds, it was geared toward fitness only (along with nutrition) and coaching. The more I wrote, the more I realized my passion isn’t only fitness, nutrition, and coaching. I am very passionate about sharing my experiences with bipolar disorder. I help myself by helping others know they are not alone. I am vulnerable and open for those who don’t yet have the strength. I also want to become more involved in the Los Angeles lifestyle, and share about that! There are so many amazing events that happen here, I would be silly not to get involved. 🙂
The meaning behind the name:
I chose The Balanced Brunette for a couple reasons. For one, it felt right. I kept thinking of other names, but this is the one I kept coming back to. For two, balance is the theme of my life (and many others, of course). I have always been attracted to the yin & yang symbol. Having a chemical imbalance, it’s only natural that I am attracted to balance. In my mind, body, and life. Mental, physical, and spiritual. For three, I’m a proud brunette! Haha, but seriously.
I’ve changed all my social media accounts to match my blog. I hope you will follow me on this amazing, exciting journey!

Thank you so much! I truly appreciate that! 🙂
It’s awesome you’re sharing your journey – so brave! And I love the new name!!
Thank you so much Emily!!
i love the new name!
Thank you so much Britt!!
I’m very excited for you in this new reconceptualization of your blog–I know how you feel wanting to have your blog, from the title forward, reflect what is important to you. Similar to why I call my blog “suzlyfe”–it is whatever I need it to be, but it will always be my life. I really look forward to hearing about your experience with bipolar–I think that bipolar, like depression/anxiety, and Crohn’s (both of which I have), carry particular connotations and expectations that may be true for some, but need not hold us back. I always say “Live Beyond Expectation”–I can’t wait to see more of how you do just that!
Live beyond expectation- I love that!! And I LOVE your blog name! When I first read it, I thought ‘what a perfect name’ .. Because yes, it’s your life! I totally agree about certain connotations being associated with things like bipolar, depression, anxiety, crohns and so on. I talk about bipolar openly to eradicate stigma and to show others that there is no ‘one way’ 🙂 thank you so much for your comment!! xoxo
I love your new name! It really works with your message!
