Hi, I’m a fitness coach, mother, adventurer, cancer survivor, Air Force veteran, speaker, grandmother and widow. I enjoy sharing what I’ve learned over the years with other women. I have a bachelors degree in Business Management, a Group Fitness Certification and a Weight Management Specialist Certificate through the American Council on Exercise (ACE).
After unexpectedly losing my husband in 2009, I turned to fitness to try and cope with my insurmountable grief. It was really helping. But then, less than a year after my husband died, in 2010, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I underwent a double mastectomy and chemotherapy, and at that point, fitness was out the window and I was in survival mode. The months continued to pass as I was still grieving my husband and received cancer treatment. My mental health began to decline and after almost two years in that dark place, I found myself very overweight and unhealthy and I knew something had to change.
So, I set out to get in the habit of exercising. It was hard. I joined a program for cancer survivors to regain my strength, improve my nutrition, and lose weight. Over time, I became a certified fitness instructor so that I could coach others in the program and help them reclaim control of their life.
Then Covid came…and gyms closed and this provided an unexpected opportunity to support women in their health goals in a virtual environment. That was the beginning of Wild Widow Wellness (W3 Tribe Fitness). At first we were just meeting online to chat and give us way to cope with the shutdown mentally and physically. But then I had an idea of how it could be more for women needing easier and better access to fitness.
When I began my journey to get healthy, it wasn’t fast, it wasn’t easy, it was one step at a time and one day at a time. But I knew it was possible. Now I want to help others who might find themselves in the same situation (either physically, emotionally or both). I know in my soul that this is my purpose, to educate and help women dealing with grief, cancer, poor eating habits, and sedentary lifestyles to change their life and find their joy and light again.
My mission is to help women live an active & healthy life even after being presented with some of life’s most brutal, soul crushing moments.
I'm not an influencer, I'm not a Barbie with a perfect body, I am a survivor of many things who understands the curveballs life will throw at you... but I also understand the incredible value of feeling strong & healthy, both mentally and physically, when those curveballs come.
