ABOUT ME

WORKING HARD FOR CHANGE

Vision:

​

B Fit for Life was founded in 2017 to help survivors, particularly women of any socioeconomic status, recovering from abuse, disease, trauma, loss, addictions, and unhealthy family of origins, find pathways towards healing and confidence through fitness. My vision from the very beginning was to address the stigmas related towards woman regarding their societal roles and to build a community of woman, driven by survivors, who support one another emotionally, physically, mentally, and spiritually. Ultimately, creating a community of women who are at the forefront for creating solutions that interrupt the cycle of abuse within communities.

​

Why? Because I’m a survivor. This life hasn’t yielded me the proper emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual support. As a result, I developed unhealthy habits and behaviors to cope with the abuse and loss suffered. By the grace of God, I found my way. Fitness and personal recovery led me to lose eighty pounds and straight to my authentic self.

​

At heart, I’m a caretaker. Most of my life working with children and elderly who have special needs. I’ve committed my life to the service of others. I carry deep empathy and can almost feel the pain in other people. It is my passion to help. However, it wasn’t until I suffered my own physical and hormonal setbacks that led me towards a life of fitness that I found my true purpose. Because, beyond having the spirit of a caretaker, I also have one of creativity. Within fitness, I found a way to sing, dance, help others and get fit. Staying in the service others is the commitment I made to my creator. Living every day in gratitude to God for saving my life.

​

My calling is to expand and reframe the idea that loving ourselves is selfish. Establishing healthy boundaries is the first step towards creating a safe environment that fosters women towards finding their true selves. I believe getting in shape is the answer, because it builds self-confidence and respect. Encouraging women to love and accept themselves and to help one another reach their goals. Getting in shape shouldn’t be a punishment and it occurs from the inside out. It’s an amazing and empowering lifestyle decision that I believe anyone can achieve.

B Fit for Life is in the “No Judgement Zone” and committed to creating a safe, friendly, and comfortable environment that enriches the life all women who participate in its programs.
