About Me

I’m on a mission to live a healthier life– for myself and my daughter. In recent years I’ve struggled with my weight, anxiety and the tendency to avoid leaving the house when possible.

After years of attempting to solve my weight issue, I have been prescribed a weight-loss medication. Contrary to common misconceptions, this is not a simple solution. Lifestyle changes are a must and I am still working hard through home exercise and diet changes. I hope to show it’s possible to make these changes without a gym membership or any fad-gadgets.

I want to further my journey by facing my anxiety head-on and making an effort to enjoy the world again. I have found myself staying in at all costs. I rarely leave the house outside of going to work everyday. Things have got to change.

My hope is that my story inspires others to prioritize self-care and living life to the fullest.
