My journey began in 1992; I was diagnosed with
thyroid cancer. That is when my health began to fail. My health
had been declining for years and it was so difficult to gain
control. I was facing obesity, early stage diabetes, and high
blood pressure. As if things couldn’t get worse I suffered
a stroke. Facing multiple complications my doctors gave up on
me and they told me there was nothing more they could do unless
I was willing to undergo exploratory surgery. After reviewing
all of my health conditions, I knew that if I wasn’t going
to accept the present prognosis, I would have to search in a
new direction for a solution. I recognized that my journey would
be difficult. Anyone could see that this was not going to be
a quick cure but giving up was not an option.
In 2003, I moved to Atlanta. It was a life changing decision.
I had been out of work for years due to my illnesses. I decided
that I would have to take a more active role in my recovery.
It was my time for me to relish in the goodness of life and abandon
my defeatist outlook. Another miracle occurred when I was presented
with and then accepted a job with a wellness doctor in Atlanta
and before I knew it my health begin to drastically improve. |
After more than a year into my healing process,
I received a stunning blow…Breast Cancer. Instead of the
traditional route of chemo or radiation, I accepted wellness
into my mind and body. Everyday I affirmed that my body is whole
and I am healed.
My health crisis could have derailed, but instead I used it
as a wake-up call to lead a more fulfilling and balanced life. Creating
productive health strategies in my own life has helped me regain
my health. By combining my two passions, coaching on the inside
and toning on the outside, I hope to create a setting for people
to live out their health dreams.
By educating myself with what I needed for me to heal from
the inside out, I received my greatest gift…my mission in life.
It evolved into my calling to become a wellness coach.
