My Fitness Journey
Yes. This Was Me.
After I gave birth to my second child and the extra 40+ pounds that came with her I looked in the mirror and didn’t recognize myself anymore. It wasn’t until I attended a women’s retreat that following year that I realized not only was I not taking care of the temple God gave me I lacked some serious discipline. However, the diet trends I heard my peers embarking on sounded dreadful. I liked to eat. Like I really like to eat! I knew I had to find the right changes that would have a lasting impact not just on me, but on my family. As it turned out, I wasn’t the only one experiencing these challenges and what started out as a personal journey became a passion to teach and train others that their health and fitness did not have to be a burden.
I’m thrilled to be able to share my approach with women and mothers alike who want to make needed changes in their lives and just need a little encouragement along the way.
