6. What does fitness mean to you? Fitness has been a big part of my outlet through my mental health. I’ve been able to connect with people all around the world that not only competition wise, but as a spotter loader developing great friendships and calling my close ones family. It has gotten me through dark times and able to use my strategies to help others push through their barriers in similar situations or help develop new ways through their journey alongside them. My ultimate goal is to help others and bring out their potential.

7. What does mental health mean to you?
Mental health is a big factor in both fitness
and work related, I have been in working in the field about 4+ years ranging from behavior coaching adolescent/teens to rehabilitation/recreational therapy for adolescence/teens/adult/geriatric. I’ve been told that my demeanor and presence is very approachable and comforting. I’ve seen a significant success in the field assisting individuals and developing great rapport in clientele. I’m continuing to be the support for anyone in any situation I feel I am not successful until I’m able to help complete goals towards mental health continue to grow as a therapist serving the population. by @az.apo.powerlifting
