Why am I trying to redefine health and fitness?
To put it frankly, I am sick and tired seeing people be taken advantage of with bullshit lies and slimy selling tactics.
It’s not ok that people prey on insecurities.
It’s not ok to make false claims, underdeliver, and take advantage of individuals who have unknowingly been sold incorrect information and lies for YEARS.
I was one of those people who got sucked into the shiny bullshit that the health & fitness industry sells.
I wanted to be fit and accepted, but most importantly, I was striving for optimal health. I tried it all, looking for that “secret” solution, pill, or drink. I spent a disgusting amount of money on all that and was left with nothing but frustration, resentment, and always feeling like it wasn’t enough.
I was tired of being lied to. Tired of running myself into the ground for this so-called “perfection” that we’re sold. I was tired of feeling like I was broken if I didn’t have ______ or look like some IG model. I wanted more. I wanted honesty. I wanted the truth about what actually works and what doesn’t. How the human body actually works, not what Karen on IG is trying to sell to “fix” me.
So I dove straight in to find FACTS, not fear, because I deserved better.
And SO DO YOU.
There are several foundations my coaching and business is built on, but also as an individual. This is not an exhaustive list, but my top values, because my business is built on human connection.
I work closely with humans in a very vulnerable and personalized setting. These relationships go so much deeper than macros & workouts. We’re a diverse group of humans, with different life experiences, and I learn something from each and every one of them.
Early on in my business, I made a commitment to myself that I would always give back to others in some way. Currently, I donate at least 1% of my monthly profit to community organizations and funds. I live in a very conservative area with a large population of low socioeconomic families, and have seen how under-resourced local LGBTQ+ groups are and how high the need for mutual aid is. Thank you for helping me in my mission to support others.
Regular donations (financial and/or goods) are made to:
My story started when I was 13 years old. I went from 90lbs at the end of 6th grade to 140lbs by the summer between 7th & 8th grade. My best friend at the time told me that if you make yourself throw up after you eat, you won’t gain weight. That moment started the 13ish year battle of bulimia, short bouts of anorexia, orthorexia (obsessive behavior in pursuit of a healthy diet & over exercising), and body dysmorphia.
Once I recovered from the purging part of bulimia in my mid 20’s, I became obsessed with eating “clean” & exercising 7 days a week, but I never stopped binging… it just led to the unhealthy binge & restrict cycle that so many women experience.
Every Monday-Thursday I would eat low calorie & exercise hard to “make up” for the “damage” I did Friday-Sunday.
Even if I tried not to binge over the weekend, it was inevitable because I under-ate so much during the week, I was mentally and physically starving by Friday.
I never saw the physical results I thought I was working so hard for. I looked puffy & bloated all the time. I was miserable- either starving or sick to my stomach. I had migraines, terrible digestion, poor sleep, moody, and I was obsessed with food.
It took years to break away from that destructive path. It honestly took a giant wake up call for me to see how precious and valuable life truly is. When my dad got diagnosed with pancreatic cancer- I realized how vital our health is. I mean, we all know we get just 1 body, but it’s a harsh reality check when you see that one body deteriorate. When he passed 6 months later, I made it my mission to not let that happen to me.
It became my mission to take care of my body, mind, and soul. To educate myself. To help others.
I strongly believe in being authentic, transparent, honest, and straightforward, while helping navigate through the bullshit of health & fitness myths and quick fixes.
My goal is to help teach you, empower you, and to help you learn how to celebrate your body for all that it is capable of.
