MY PERSONAL STORY
I didn’t always have good health, the body, or know the simple secrets to well-being...
In fact...
Let me tell you a little secret; I used to square off with my plate on the daily, feeling like food was the enemy. I know what it feels like to be at war with your own body. All through my teen years I struggled to overcome severe food allergies brought on my parallel battles with tween anorexia. By the time I hit my 20s I'd been on more diets and tried more remedies than the night sky has stars. I was so exhausted, but was finally staring to heal.
SADLY IT WAS SHORT LIVED...
Face-to-face combat with cancer was not a battle I ever wanted to take on, but in 2013 we went head to head anyway...
SOMETIMES LIFE HAS ITS OWN PLAN...
My life came to a screeching halt in when I was a young mum and diagnosed with an aggressive breast cancer. I questioned everything I was doing. Why had it chosen me? I was super fit and healthy. I ate clean; worked out 6 days a week; coached mamas in my fitness boot camps. I was not supposed to get sick. But I did. And it made me realise something vitally important was missing from my seemingly healthy life --- balance.
