To all my Mom’s out there, living out that 24/7 Job as a caregiver, teacher, nurse, etc.
Hi, yes, hello, I want to speak to you. YOU specifically. I want to introduce myself as a mom, a mom who also has had trouble managing her time. Time for myself,. As moms, we pour ourselves endlessly to our kids, and it’s such a beautiful and rewarding feeling when we do. But When our cup is at its lowest, and you can no longer pour ourselves into our children, we begin to feel drained, overwhelmed, Lost, stuck, and we begin to see how we let ourselves go. I don’t mean physically, but mentally and spiritually. We begin to wake up later in the day, we begin to eat more sugar, we begin to stop going to church because, “it’s so hard to get all the kids ready to step out. Plus, I feel lazy, I haven’t had a day to rest. God will understand.” I get it. I lived it.
I’m blessed, to be here posting these photos from competition, to 8 months ago. If I’m honest, It makes me emotional seeing this photo You can imagine how HARD it was, and still continues to be trying to navigate life with three kids. But I’m here to share my story. When I gave birth, I was paralyzed, couldn’t walk from my lower half, and here I am in this photo which I present to you, PROUD. I did that, I worked hard for this. I fed my body, my mind, and my spirit and look at how far I’ve come! To be able to say I got not only my body back, but my mind and my soul to all align together, in a better; healthier way. And I get it your probably looking at me, and saying “girl you’ve always been thin”, okay, sure
But that doesn’t mean I was going to stay comfortable in where I was. When people are successful it’s because they got out of their comfort zone to go experience and change their lives. Through all the failures, and trails, and having to start on square one again. I was not going to comply, and I hope niether will you. This is only scratching the surface of my story, but if you’re curious; send me a dm about what more I did to achieve this accomplishment. Let’s talk, I didn’t do it alone. So Don’t believe you have to go through your fitness journey alone either. I’m here 💕
