POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

For a long time, I thought growth meant becoming someone new.

Lately, I’ve realized it might mean remembering who I was before the world told me who I needed to be.

As a kid, I loved skateboarding, riding bikes, climbing trees, jumping off things, fishing, exploring, creating adventures out of nothing. There was joy in all of it. Not because I was trying to impress anyone, but because I was fully alive.

Over the years, through life, responsibilities, expectations, successes, failures, heartbreak, and survival, that joy slowly started to fade.

I don’t blame anyone for that.

The truth is, somewhere along the way, I stopped honoring the man I was becoming—not because I was dishonorable, but because my definition of honor became tied to perception. To achievement. To what others thought. To who I believed I needed to be.

But this season feels different.

This season is about taking off everything I’ve put on throughout the years and reconnecting with the little boy who loved life before he learned to perform for it.

This is my season of Reframe.

A season of remembering.
A season of rebuilding.
A season of finding joy again.

So if you’ve ever felt disconnected from yourself, from your purpose, or from the things that once made you come alive, I invite you to come along for the journey.

Over the next few months, I’ll be sharing more about my childhood, my upbringing, the lessons I’ve learned, and the process of falling back in love with the person I was always meant to be.

Because sometimes the greatest gift you can give yourself isn’t becoming someone else.

It’s remembering who you were before the world convinced you otherwise.

This is something I’ve done for 22 years! Does it work? Best shape of my life!!! I don’t just recommend it, it’s essential for true longevity.
ever stood on a vibration plate and felt every muscle in your body wake up at once?

that’s vibration training. you move through squats, lunges, planks and sculpting work on a platform that vibrates beneath you. depending on the frequency, your muscles contract 30 to 50 times per second. that’s thousands of contractions in a single class, without the pounding on your joints.

what it does for your body:
· increases your metabolism
· builds muscle and creates more bone density
· reduces cellulite
· boosts circulation
· flushes your lymphatic system
· better sleep
· better skin
· longer, leaner, stronger

and the part i love most. you walk out feeling more gorgeous, more beautiful, more alive than when you walked in.

i built platefit because i wanted a workout that made women feel radiant in their bodies, not punished by them. eleven years later, i still believe this is the way forward for fitness. everybody should be doing this.

come feel it for yourself. your first class will tell you everything.
