Growing up in a family where health problems were common, I witnessed first-hand the consequences of an unhealthy lifestyle. My parents lived a 70s/80s lifestyle, working hard while indulging in smoking and drinking. But even at a young age I felt a deep aversion to these habits. I remember refusing to drink the wine during my First Communion, despite the priest's attempts to convince me. Little did I know that this aversion stemmed from my desire for a different path – a change in character and personal growth that would shape my future. As I got older, I confronted my parents about their choices. I was apologized. They blamed external factors, genetics, and hereditary influences, which only added to my frustration. The excuses hurt more than their unhealthy lifestyle itself. My childhood was the foundation for my own health journey, it gave me the DRIVE to stay aware of how precious life is and how blessed I am to be healthy. Being healthy cannot be taken for granted; it takes effort, dedication and making conscious choices every day. Every day I face the choice to take care of myself, even when it seems intimidating: going to the gym after a long day of work, choosing nutritious meals over convenience, and embracing a lifestyle that serves my overall well-being. My health is an invaluable investment, and I am worth every second I spend improving myself. Regardless of external circumstances or limitations, I am responsible for my own behaviour and the choices I make. I am incredibly grateful for my wonderful clients who have joined me on this journey. They exemplify true responsibility, honesty, and resilience as they grow stronger and healthier. Together we will face the difficulties, supporting and strengthening each other along the way. To all the amazing women out there, remember that your choices not only impact your own happiness, but also have a ripple effect on those who rely on you. You have the power to make excuses or make real change. It's up to you, and only you!
