Occupation Mom,NASM Certified Personal Trainer, Sever Disabilities teacher on hiatus!
Location Virginia, United States
Introduction Im a mom to the two funniest, kindest, most thoughtful and perfect kids in the world. I live my life for them. They are the reason I strive every day to be happy and healthy. And, having a mom who is a badass can be pretty cool. I fought through thyroid cancer, a complicated pregnancy, weight issues, health issues and believe in the healthy body/healthy mind connection. The connection between mind & body should NEVER be undervalued. It sets a lifelong example for my kids, allows me the energy to participate actively in their lives & to be present in life. Truly present. Take each moment! Life is too short to waste feeling like crap, being afraid and living with regret. "You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.' You must do the thing you think you cannot do.” ― Eleanor Roosevelt, You Learn by Living: Eleven Keys for a More Fulfilling Life
