Receive Text UpdatesPowerlifting is more than a sport to me—it’s a source of discipline, grit, and self-belief. The structure and consistency it demands strengthen not only my body but my mental health, helping me manage stress, stay grounded, and build confidence. It keeps me strong as I age, supports a healthy lifestyle, and allows me to remain active, capable, and fully present for my kids. Every lift represents progress earned through resilience, commitment, and the quiet belief that I can always grow stronger.
What’s your favorite way to train or stay fit?My favorite way to stay fit is by blending powerlifting with being active outdoors alongside my kids. Powerlifting makes me feel strong and capable, while hiking, playing, and exploring together keeps me moving with purpose and fully present in the moments that matter most as a mom to an active family.
What would you do with $20,000?With the $20,000, I would use it with intention and gratitude—to ease the weight of debt, build security for the years ahead, invest in my children’s future, and set aside part of it for a meaningful family trip where we can slow down, reconnect, and create memories that will stay with us for a lifetime.
