My Story

When I was a kid, I was overweight. I didn’t like “healthy” foods, and I definitely didn’t like anything that made my heart beat faster than it did when I was sitting on the couch eating junk food.

Trust me, I tried everything. High-protein diets, low-calorie diets, Weight Watchers, juicing, fasting… it was grueling. Year after year, my grip on my weight kept slipping no matter how hard I tried.

At 19 years old, I weighed nearly 200 pounds. I still remember plugging my stats into an online BMI calculator and seeing the word “obese” flash on the screen. That moment broke something in me. I felt hopeless, unmotivated, and lost. So, I dropped out of college and went to the only thing I knew I loved. I went to New York City.

One morning, sitting in Dean & DeLuca at Rockefeller Center with a notebook and a cup of coffee, I decided I was going to choose what to do with my life. I wrote down all kinds of career ideas: doctor, lawyer, singer, dancer… and near the bottom of the list, almost as an afterthought, I wrote “nutritionist.”

One by one, I crossed off each career until “nutritionist” was the only one left. I laughed to myself, wondering why I even wrote that down. Food had always been my greatest weakness! And the idea of studying it terrified me.

But then I realized something: that’s what school is for - to learn what you don’t yet know!! So, I made a decision that day: If I could learn about nutrition and truly change my own health, then I could definitely help others do the same.

Today I can tell you with absolute certainty that I have taken my gretest weakness and have made it my greatest strength.

A Moment That Changed

Sometime later, my friends invited me on a midnight mountain hike. I hated exercise so much 😂 and every step I took on this hike was miserable. I was tired, angry, and out of breath! So eventually I decided to wander off alone…

It just so happened that, this very night, the trail was lit by a full moon. And so when I finally reached the summit, I turned around and saw the most breathtaking view I had ever seen: Every step of that painful climb stretched out below me. And in that quiet moment, a thought came to me as clear as the moonlit view in front of me:

“I am going to do this for the rest of my life.”

It’s funny, my parents always told me that some of my first words were “climb mountain” when I was a baby 😝 I never thought much of it back then, but today, that phrase feels like my mission in everything…

Since then, I have climbed all 58 of Colorado’s 14ers and found endless joy in the trails around Colorado Springs including the Manitou Incline, Seven Bridges, Blodgett Peak, and countless others. I know deep in my heart that I will never stop climbing because it allows me to harness my power and use it in ways that are so wholesomely healing. ❤️‍🔥
