more about me and why I am
here...
I
started on my health and fitness
journey about 3 years ago.
My initial goal was to have my husband
and I get fit and feel great
about ourselves.
To accomplish this, I
started to research nutrition and exercise
programs. After a few (dozen) books
and websites, I created (copied and
tweaked) a 12 week plan. We had great
success and I really enjoyed everything I
was learning.
I was so intrigued that
I decided to take my knowledge to the next
level and get certified as a personal
trainer. I LOVED coaching my husband
and I knew that I would love helping other
people achieve their health and fitness
goals as well.
Health has become such a
huge part of my life. I enjoy sharing
my knowledge with my friends and family so
that they understand how to be healthy for
the rest of their life. That is the reason
I decided to start this website.
Health and fitness is a
passion of mine and I feel that it is my
mission to share my passion and knowledge
with everyone I can. With this
website, I can go beyond my friends and
family…I hope to impact people’s lives all
over the world!
My husband, John, and I
live in South East Michigan. Let me
tell you, all the national polls about
Michigan being unhealthy, obese, etc
are 100% true! We see it each and
everyday. The saddest part of this is
that we see children that are being robbed
of a bright future because their health is
so bad.
At first, I felt that it
was MOST important to reach out to the
children and educate them…but then I
realized something. Children (and
most people) do not do what they are
taught…they do what they see.
So, children are
following in their parent’s
footsteps. In order to change this,
we must start making our health a
priority. That is my mission! I
want to touch as many lives as I can.
I realize that when 1 person changes their
life for the better, it doesn’t end
there. They will (intentionally or
not) change the people around them.
That is my motivation.
I want a better future
for our children. Currently, John and
I don’t have children…well, we do have four
leggers which keep us pretty busy. We
have a 9 year old American Bulldog named
Gunny, a 3.5 year old Lab mix named Bella
and a big fat (I mean big boned) cat named
Gizzy.
I am confident in the
knowledge I share with the people that I
love the most in my life. I will provide
that same guidance to all of you who want
to make their health and fitness a
priority. Without that, you really don’t
have much. With it, you can have the
world!
I welcome any and all
feedback and questions so please do not
