Empowering Women to Take Control: A Journey to Fulfillment

For many many years I wasn’t living in my own truth. I was so distracted by all things and people around me that it became my norm. I was truly living for everyone else and not me. I was a true people pleaser, always looking for that one set of validation or making sure that I was getting recognized for being what other’s thought I should be.  It was just a miserable way to live, but it was who I was. It was my disgusting truth. It wasn’t till I realized that my worth was so much more than being validated by people who could care a 2 cents about me or my family. I started to become my own person.

I know what my life was like when I ate those things everyday, heck every week!! Let me tell you it wasn’t pretty and I was at a whopping 245lbs😩 I needed better, I wanted better for myself!
