SOMETHING NEW

If you've known me very long, you know that I’ve been an active person most of my life. I played just about every sport growing up and loved dancing in college. I loved community and most of all the ACCOUNTABILITY. Once I moved on to the “real” world, the world where exercise wasn’t naturally built in + an unhealthy relationship with food, I began to quickly become less healthy. Fitness has been a love of mine for years but was the first thing to take a back seat when kids started to come and it wasn’t easy anymore. I know that I like a challenge and I enjoy working out WITH people. I’m a bit of an extrovert if you didn’t know. ;)

Back in the fall of last year I committed to getting healthier, and I was super nervous to make it too big of a deal. I was so afraid of setting myself up for failure. I wanted to make some BIG life changes though. Not just losing weight or building muscle, but I wanted to be healthy all around. I wanted to be more in God’s word and growing in my faith. I wanted to make strides to take care of this body that God has given me. I know I’m not the only one out there with this desire—we ALL desire that! The hardest thing I’ve had to learn is that there is no quick fix or magic pill that will change my body. It takes hard work and commitment…making good, healthy choices over and over again day in and day out. (Something I still struggle with daily!)

I have LOVED being a part of a community of women over the past several weeks that has offered me support and encouragement daily, which has given me the desire to help others.

I have decided to become a fitness coach which means that I would love to link arms with other ladies and walk on this journey TOGETHER! I already feel so much better mentally and physically and have more energy! I say all this to share a little of me with you just in case you need a little push and accountability. I would love to share my journey along the way and encourage you on yours as well.
