October 1, 2024 I decided enough was enough. I was tired of feeling drained, doom scrolling late at night, eating fast food, and not showing up for myself.
The night before, I saw a TikTok about starting a “winter arc”—using the last 90 days of the year to lock in on your goals so you enter the new year already different, instead of waiting until January 1 to begin. Something clicked in me. I knew I was meant for more than the habits I had settled into.
My winter arc became about discipline and treating myself better: prioritizing sleep, fueling my body with better food, moving my body, and keeping promises to myself—even on the days I didn’t feel like it.
I started with one group fitness class at my gym and focused on consistency over perfection. I didn’t obsess over the scale because I knew building muscle could change make my weight go up, but week by week, I felt stronger, had more energy, and slowly began seeing my progress.
I also learned that cardio alone wasn’t enough. I lost weight doing hours of StairMaster, but I was losing muscle too. So I got uncomfortable, started strength training, pushed myself to failure, and stopped being afraid of weights.
Later in my journey, I built a 5 AM routine that made me feel even more disciplined and connected to the person I was becoming.
Now, strength training + Pilates has been the perfect combination for me: building muscle, strengthening my core, and becoming the strongest version of myself.
The biggest transformation wasn’t just physical—it was finding joy in taking care of myself. That’s what keeps me consistent. 🤍#gymmotivation #fitnessjourney #wellness #miami #gymprogress by @movewithamparo

Our results are built on the days we show up anyway—even when we don’t feel like it. One day, one workout, 1% closer ✨🤍

In August 2024, my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer. Today, we walked beside her with grateful hearts, celebrating her strength, her courage, and the gift of having her here with us. 💗she’s a fighter and kicked cancer’s butt and officially cancer free today and we are sooooo beyond grateful and truly blessed.
The MORE THAN PINK Walk was such an incredible event—a beautiful reminder that no one walks this journey alone. We walked to honor my mom, support everyone still fighting, remember those we’ve lost, and raise funds for a future without breast cancer.
Mom, watching you face this journey has shown me what strength truly looks like. Today, every step was for you—and for the hope that one day, no family will have to hear the words “you have cancer.” 🎀 #susangkomen #breastcancerawareness #breastcancerwarrior #morethanpinkwalk #miami taken in Miami, Florida by @movewithamparo

Past me, two years ago, would not have believed me if I showed her a picture of who I am today.
Consistency, consistency, consistency.
Your results don’t have any other option but to show up when you keep showing up for yourself. I feel happier and more energetic every day because I know my choices are shaping me into a better version of me.
