"I am a person in long term Eating Disorder Recovery & my journey has always centered around movement.
Through every stage of my life movement has helped me manage my mental health, serving as a tool for emotional processing and connection - long before I realized that is what it was giving to me.
But like most extremists, I am skilled at taking a good thing too far & exercise has at many times also served as a tool to harm and punish myself...
In that dichotomy, I have learned so many harsh lessons about myself. I've been burned out, sick and injured but my desire to move always pushes me to take an honest look at my thoughts, actions and behaviors so that I can stay healthy enough to do it.
Over time, that has taught me balance, intention and presence across all facets of my life (of course, this is an ongoing journey!)
Somewhere along the road I decided I wanted to coach so that I could share my experience with others. I met Maggie in 2019 at CFL1 and we realized we had the same big idea; to create a community where we can connect, sweat and recover-together.
It's been an honor to use both my skill set and lived experiences to help our community flourish."
