Be Your Best

My goal is to inspire and motivate others to be the best that they can be. 

I want people to realize that they are SO much stronger than they think. I want them to see how awesome it feels to push themselves harder than they ever have, to really challenge themselves, and to do things that they never thought they could do. I want people to want more for themselves.

I want to inspire women to lift heavy weights; to know how amazing it feels to be strong and fit. I want them to feel the sense of accomplishment and empowerment that lifting heavy brings and to fall in love with the weights like I have!  I want them to embrace their strength and to be proud of their hard earned muscles. 

 I want people to feel good, not only physically but also mentally, as in the way they feel about themselves.  Most people are so used to being the way they are- not feeling good, having low energy, low self confidence, and being weak and of shape-that they don't even know what they're missing!

 I want people to know how good it feels when you treat your body with the respect it deserves by nourishing it with the right foods and exercising.  I know how amazing it feels, and I want to share it so that everyone can experience it! How can I keep it to myself?

You don't have to let your body fall apart as you get older. You don't have to accept being out of shape. Do something about it. Focus on your health and on getting strong, not just losing weight, getting to a certain number on the scale or having a six pack.Those things will only keep you motivated for so long.

Don't look back on your life wishing you would've taken care of yourself better.  It's never too late to start!  I have older women that I have trained who have changed their lifestyles, transformed their bodies, and are fitter and just as strong as the women I train who are half their age! What are you waiting for??? Do it for YOU. Your body will thank you for it in the long run.

People always said That time would heal the pain But how can that be When mine still remains? The tears still fall At just the thought of you So I know that what they say Just can't be true As the years go by I miss you so much still  No matter how much time passes I know I always will How are you not here To ease my hurting heart? Never could I have imagined We would ever be apart My world has been shattered A piece of me is gone And all I can do is pray For strength to live on I know that one day soon I will see you again I just have to try to suffer through And make it until then

Putting My Heart Out There

Hey guys. Here's where we're at right now: Matt finished his radiation treatments last week. Did they help? I don't know. He's sleeping a lot more. Having trouble chewing and swallowing. Not eating much. Not talking much, at least not in full sentences. It's just been a slow, steady decline for the last few months. I think it was really too late for radiation....But who knows, maybe it is delaying things. We went in last Tuesday for his infusion and talked with his neuro-oncologist about everything that we've been seeing with Matt, and he decided that we're at the point now where we should discontinue treatments...I feel like it's the right decision, even though it breaks my heart knowing that there is nothing else we can do. But I feel like we've done everything. All the supplements, the diet, the chemo, the radiation... Matt has fought hard. He never gave up hope. He kept the faith. He never complained through any of this. Not once did I hea...

One Year...

One year ago today... the day it all changed. It was a Tuesday. I got the call from Matt around 3:00. I remember I was sitting at the computer at home. Matt told me that he was at the hospital, and that Bob Scott, his boss, had driven him there. Then he said those 4 words I never expected to hear: “The tumor came back.”  My heart stopped. Matt had gone in that morning for an MRI, as he has done numerous times in the past 10 years. He was now at the point where he had an MRI just yearly now, and that one was done in February, which showed that everything was fine. There was no sign of tumor growth, which had been the case for the last 10 years, praise God. But because Matt had been having some seizure activity for the last few months, they suggested he go in for another MRI in July. We then decided we should move up the appointment, because he had been having a headache every day for the past week. Good thing we did.... After I hung up with Matt,  I immediately brok...
