Taking charge of my health and fitness changed my life in ways that go far beyond the gym. It gave me a community and a healthy outlet when life feels heavy. It gave me a body that’s capable of doing the things I want to do, and indisputable proof that I am stronger than I feel. I am showing my children every day what discipline, hard work, and resilience look like. The gym gives back exactly what you put into it, and has something to offer to (almost) any body.
What’s your favorite way to train or stay fit?Gym days for me will never get better than a solid weightlifting session followed by hot yoga - I walk out afterwards feeling like I could fly!
What would you do with $20,000?For much of my life I played it safe, held back by fear and self-doubt. This chapter has been about choosing courage—showing my kids what it looks like to live fully and bravely. I would use the $20,000 to take them on meaningful adventures—hiking national parks, exploring new fishing spots, and sharing experiences that build confidence, curiosity, and lasting joy. I want them to remember a childhood defined not by limits, but by possibility.
