My lifelong passion is to be in loving community where we lift each other up. With the motto of "one for all and all for one," I had a heart to give. By 25 years of age, I realized that I was unable to lift anyone up, I couldn't even lift 10 pounds off the ground. Chronic pain debilitated me. I asked God, "How can I help others when I can't even take care of myself? What was my purpose in this life if I couldn't be productive or happy or 'normal'?”

 

It wasn't until age 33 when I realized: I have choices. I have the power to change my circumstances. I am not a helpless victim; rather, I am a dynamic powerhouse! And so are you! 

 

Since that January, I have been on a journey to share what true health can do for individuals and communities! In health, we can be strong. In health, we can overcome striving and truly thrive! We can live out our God-given purpose; He gave us all the tools we need to do so. 

 

My dreams come true when we, as healthy

individuals, come together in community

and, with God's tools, lift each other up.
