Mental strife & Emotional pain fueled my passion. It began years back, way before any gym sessions, right in my head, healing the inside. I changed how I ate, started hearing what my body needed, dug deep for those quiet answers. That spark turned into real change, strength I never imagined. Now, it’s all about keeping that fire alive. My passion for health and fitness comes from learning how to take back my own power and transmute all the pain to benefit myself.

Hitting the gym it’s my serotonin station. Not just one move, though. I balance it out: weights to build, cardio to burn, then stretch and hold poses ’til my balance feels sharp. Whole-body vibe, every time. Keeps the happy chemicals flowing, keeps me hooked. Eating right and feeding my body what it really wants! I love my personal trainer at LA Fitness, too! Top tier!

With twenty thousand, I’d launch ‘Channeled’: free/low cost gym memberships and Free initial personal training, low cost continued training for folks with ADHD and Autism, spotlighting women who’ve been missed or left out of getting proper supports. Spotlighting Emotional regulation for woman and man. I get it, the restlessness, the emotional storms. A quiet hour lifting, running or movement? Game changer. It’s an investment in them, really. And in me too, because the ripple always comes back.
