Accolades, Credentials and More
Throughout my life, I have learned from and been inspired by the following lessons. They influence and structure my philosophies about life coaching and fitness.
​
-
We experience continuous changes throughout our lives.
-
Even though life does not always go according to our plans, it is still important to focus on our goals and desires.
-
Through changes in our lives, we can find opportunities to deepen our resilience and strengthen our character.
-
We all struggle with grief and loss in our lifetimes, but we can learn to use these experiences to grow our compassion and wisdom.
-
Throughout our lives we will come up against challenges and inequity. We can use these injustices to call for a better and more equal normal.
-
We are all impacted by each other and we all have the opportunity to empower ourselves as we lift up others.
-
Though we cannot add years to our life, we can strive to add life to the years we do have.
-
We have the power to search for meaning and purpose in our lives
-
Each person has the opportunity and the power to write their own story.
