I have my doctorate in physical therapy and I’m an online personal trainer, health coach, and yoga teacher for women over 40. . My health has been a journey for me. After my first child, I remember feeling stressed and overwhelmed. I was having anxiety and heart palpitations, and I found out my cholesterol was high. . Then after my third child, I started to slowly regain the weight that I had lost. I remember going up a flight of stairs and being out of breath. This was a wake-up call and made me reprioritize my health. Through quick workouts and basic nutrition, I kept things simple and stayed consistent. Not only did I lose the weight and keep it off, but I started to feel better and have more energy. . On top of this, just a couple of years ago I started having some autoimmune issues. I knew that lifestyle changes could have a big impact so I worked on improving my gut, increasing my nutrition, and lowering my stress and it worked! My autoimmune started to improve. . So, I’m here to encourage you to find simple ways to take control of your health. . I have combined my expertise with my real-life knowledge and built my RESET framework to help busy women over 40 just like you, improve their health, so they can feel better. .
