About Me
Who I am!
am turning 47 in November and enjoying my life. In February, I will be celebrating 27 years of marriage to the man that is my best friend, besides my “girl” BFF.
We have 2 boys, that have grown into the best men a parent could hope for, 3 beautiful grandbabies, 4 furbabies and 1 grandfurbabies. I’m surrounded by love.
At one point, I wasn’t always satisfied with my life and the direction it was going. Then at some point, I quit looking for what I wanted. In turn I started looking at what I already had. We as a society tend to look at what everyone else has and forget the blessings we already possess.
What is My passion
I am passionate about many things, my first love being, besides my family, is coffee and reading. My second love is blogging about getting healthy and fit physically, mentally, and spiritually. Writing and sharing my passion is what I love more than anything.
This topic (getting healthy and fit), used to scare and depress me to no end. Why? Because I was always looking at how everyone around me looked and what they did to look that good. At what they had that I thought I wanted too. No way in the world would I ever be able to look that good without a trainer and all the money in the world. All of the programs and way of eating were just too expensive to think of being able to do any of it. Depressing, right? It’s shameful, that’s what it is. No one should have to suffer like that.
It’s sad to say it was a photo from Christmas of 2017 that eventually made me realize I didn’t want be like everyone else. I just wanted to be healthy and feel better.
My journey to true healing started in January of 2018 with Beachbody and their trainers. The trainers are more than just eat this and do this workout (which is still a big part of getting healthy), but most importantly how and where your mindset is. Once I started working on my mindset, that’s when it all changed.
It’s an ongoing battle to stay on my fitness and eating plan. Every now and then I let the old Mindset come through for a moment and then I throw it right back out. I remind myself where I want to be and what I want to achieve.
My goal is to be able to reach women just like me, that struggle with anxiety, depression, and self-image. We are not alone, and there is help out there. Learn how I stay on track. Follow my journey as well as other women just like us and get the help you need.
