In June 2020, I stepped on the scale and saw 285.4 pounds — the heaviest I had ever been. I told myself I was “fine,” but deep down, I knew I was avoiding the truth.
Then came July 2021. My almost six-year-old daughter and I were at the fair, excited for a day of rides and laughter. But when I couldn’t fit comfortably on a majority of the rides, I saw the heartbreak in her eyes. That moment shattered me. It wasn’t just about the ride — it was about the life I was missing with her. Right then, I made a promise: I will change my life so I can fully live it with her.
I committed to a healthier lifestyle — not a quick fix, not a fad diet, but real, sustainable change. Step by step, pound by pound, I fought for my health. By September 2023, I reached 160 pounds — the lowest weight of my adult life. I felt strong, confident, and alive in a way I hadn’t in years.
But life isn’t a straight line. Stress, challenges, and everyday struggles crept in, and my weight climbed back to 185–190 pounds. The difference now? I have the tools, the mindset, and the determination to get back on track. I’m not starting over — I’m continuing my journey toward the healthiest, happiest version of me.
And that’s why I coach. Because I know what it’s like to feel stuck, to feel like you’ve tried everything, and to wonder if change is even possible. I’m here to show you that it is — and to walk beside you every step of the way.
