I had a great month finishing off the year fortunate enough to land my first 2 covers, OptiMYz magazine and Women’s Health and Fitness magazine I waited almost 10 years for this moment, yes you can say I’m a little persistent 🙂
My message to everyone as we get ready to take on the New Year is to never give up on your dreams.
Stay hungry, focused, work hard, and believe in yourself. There is always someone out there that you are inspiring even if you don’t realize it (including your haters!).
Whatever journey you are on, never lose sight of what’s most important to you. For me, that is my family.
Always remember, not everyone will support or understand your journey. That’s ok, it’s not their journey, it’s yours! Stick to those who support you, you’ll quickly know who is on your side and who isn’t. Stay true to you, and find peace in yourself knowing you are a better person for wanting more for yourself.
I wish you all happiness and joy as we head into a New Year. May your blessings be as abundant as your dreams xo
