Connect What fuels your passion for health and fitness?

My passion for health and fitness is fueled by my children and my clients. They are the perfect mirror. They reflect how I show up, adapt, and respond under pressure. I want them to see that we don’t wait for perfect conditions. We move, adjust, and stay flexible in body and mind. Health is built through action, listening, and resilience. Movement & breath teaches us how to meet life with presence and strength.

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

My favorite way to stay fit is by mixing practices. I walk and run, train with TRX, not just strength & stabilization as we know it, but I blast music, swing, slide, and move like a child again, letting my body fill with serotonin and joy. As a yoga & movement instructor , I live as a hybrid of disciplines. What works is variety, curiosity, and movement that truly nourishes body and mind.

What would you do with $20,000?

With $20,000, I’d invest where impact multiplies. I’d put my 2.5-year-old in school so I can serve more clients and change more lives. I’d gift myself one spa day because a regulated mama leads better. I’d reroute electricity in our home studio so I don’t freeze while teaching, a space my partner and I built with our bare hands this summer. This is strength in action. We don’t wait. We build.
