Me But Different – A Journey of (continued) Self Discovery

This blog was originally started as therapy during my initial stages of my health and weight loss journey in 2012. It became an essential part of my success during which time I lost close to 100lbs.  I focused on giving back to so many of the women and men who supported me and my struggles – I certified as a plus sized trainer and trained clients one on one, in groups and virtually. Thus, Discover Your Strength was born. This was a place where people could find the support and encouragement, free from judgement and built in and through personal experience. 

My life has had quite the detour over the last five years; but not a derailment! I have gone through a divorce (which I have not yet written about), sustained a number of injuries, working full time, a solo home-owner and… the reasons and excuses as to why I have left me behind may be endless.  

As I complete my 45th year on this earth, the mid-life questions are real, for anyone born post 1971.  We question the love we have known, and the life that’s been expected of us, the careers that bring money vs. fulfillment, the homes that offer status rather than warmth and a path that no longer ignites the joy and fire in our belly we once knew.

I always felt connected to my soul and body when I wrote.  And while I have tried a number of different avenues to share the mess of emotion and thoughts in my head, nothing compared to what I did in this space. 

Come back when you can – I am glad you are here. You can see more of my blog on the archives listing or “latest” published. 

Thank you for dropping by!
