VITALITY Coach & VITALITY Speaker

I was born with boundless energy, even into my late 40's they used to call me the 'energizer bunny'.
That all changed as I crossed over my 50 year line; my precious energy levels dropped, I gained around 25lbs, I was fatigued most days and for the first time in my life, I was diagnosed pre-diabetic.

I lost my precious VITALITY

Why, because I was playing the fool, not paying attention, thinking I was invincible and living the same lifestyle that I'd lived in my 30's & 40's.
I worked full time, socialized after work, partied into the wee hours of the morning and with that came lots of take out food, alcohol & party drugs.

As a result, most days my energy levels felt like she hovered around 3-4/10 as I dragged myself through my work day and into my early evening fatigued.
My once normally healthy brain felt like she was in a fog (like that feeling of being lost in a dark tunnel.)

Scared that if I did not make some drastic lifestyle changes (and one of my major drivers was that my dad died of his diabetes in his late 60's) I may not be alive to:
-be that role model I always wanted my daughter to be proud of (and to emanate)
-to enjoy what a life of vitality felt like
-to enjoy a life of longevity (that I'd always dreamed of (in my third season of life) like my longevity role model, Miss Betty White).

Starting with a 180 mindset shift, a healthy lifestyle strategy, a few friends who had my back (and held me accountable for cleaning-up my life), over a 12-month period, I slowly (sometimes painstakingly) rebuilt my energy (from a cellular level) and reclaimed my bodies precious VITALITY.

With my re-found VITALITY, my precious energy levels climbed back up to 8-9/10 allowing me to enjoy sustainable energy from sunrise to sunset (which I continue to enjoy up to today)
