After competing in sports all growing up and in college, I thought I would have instilled habits that could I take with me after I “retired”. Boy was I wrong…
When my Baseball career at UMass Amherst ended, I spent several years sporadically being “healthy” mentally and physically.
I found myself doing the “right thing” for a month or so at a time and then sliding back into a comfortable routine of overeating and no physical activity. I always struggled with being consistent.
After years of dealing with anxiety and physical pain I decided to make a permanent change!
Let’s face it, we all need a friend, a coach, or an accountability partner in this life. Sometimes that involves encouragement. Sometimes it’s an uncomfortable conversation. But most importantly, I thoroughly enjoy helping people and seeing them put in the work to achieve their goals.
Because I know where I was, and where I am now, I want to help as many people as I can with their own journey!
There are always going to be obstacles along the way, but anyone can make a change. You’ll be so glad that you did.
Let me know how I can help!
