What fuels your passion for health and fitness?

Fitness fuels my passion not just for physical strength but for mental well-being as well. Engaging in regular physical activity cultivates a profound connection between body and mind, significantly enhancing clarity and sanity. The discipline required to maintain a fitness routine translates into other areas of life, reinforcing the idea that consistency leads to progress. Each workout serves as a form of meditation, allowing me to focus and clear my mind and building discipline daily.

What’s your favorite way to train or stay fit?

My favorite way to stay fit is by moving every day! I absolutely love dancing to my dreams as a radio DJ; it fills me with joy and keeps me energized! There’s something magical about expressing myself through dance that not only keeps my body active but also lifts my spirits. And I make sure to keep the gym as my date with consistency! It’s like a commitment to myself, where I can push my limits and celebrate my progress.

What would you do with $20,000?

If I won and took home the grand prize of$20,000 my first move would be to get my merch line launched and tie it into a non-profit for youth advocacy for alcohol & drug abuse awareness and launch programs and clean entertainment in my local area.
