my personal health journey
Being the busy individual I am, my immune system has always been super important to me. I knew in the event that I got sick, my world would halt and I would struggle keeping up with school, work, my meal prep business, and other entrepreneurial endeavors. However, I wasn’t always this health-oriented. I used to suffer from fatigue and exhaustion due to the type of food I was consuming.
That’s how I first took a deep dive into health & nutrition. I knew I had to evaluate my diet & daily routine to assess what could be done differently to put me in the best position for success. I experimented with my diet, various supplements, and lifestyle changes until I found what worked for me.
These days, I notice so many younger adults with illnesses that could have been prevented with the proper diet and nutrition in place. Many people dread simple lifestyle changes because they view “eating healthy” as bland, boring, and dull. But the truth is you can prioritize your health and STILL enjoy your diet wholeheartedly. I’ve found so many delicious substitutes for what used to be some of my favorite unhealthy meals & beverages.
What started out as a five-day cleanse has morphed into me cutting out sugar, transitioning from coffee to matcha green teas, and a new found love for creative meals that feature quality protein & vegetables. It’s almost been a year and this is now a lifestyle for me; I’ve achieved body changes, controlled cravings, mental clarity, and improved physical fitness.
Listen, I’m no better than you. I just made the decision to invest in my health and I am reaping the benefits everyday. Studies show it only takes 21-days to break old habits or cycles. Imagine choosing YOU for 21-days and seeing your body being receptive to those changes. Your mind will believe whatever you tell it, so imagine the person you want to be and question whether your daily habits and routines are aiding you or hindering you in becoming the best version of you. It won’t happen overnight -- you have to work at it each day so let’s start building. I’m here to support you in this journey because I believe in you and I know it's possible!
