✨ Favorite Coaching Moments:
Seeing moms at the beginning of their journey and working with them to help achieve their goals. I love seeing moms start out their running journey and hardly be able to run a mile but after training and hard persistent work they sign up for half marathons or full! They have become “runners”, which they had always been.
✨ Proud Mom-Athlete moments:
Running All the races even though I said I would only ever run a 5k
✨ Mom hacks and habits
Love. Love is our greatest gift for our kiddos. Love them hard even on their worst days.
Love all of the kids that come to S.L.A.M. If they feel included and seen then they want to be there too! Suckers can help.
✨ One thing I would tell my new mom
Self is….Take it a day at a time. It is ok that progress will be slow. You are here and you have done the hardest thing by starting this journey. Have patience with yourself. Take a good deep breath and keep going!
Such an amazing group of mothers who support and encourage each other to do the best they can and then some! I’ve only been here a month and I’m loving it! So happy I found out about such an amazing and life-changing group
My daughter and I attended our first class today and I have to say, I’m upset I waited a whole month! This class was awesome! The workout was great, the instructor and all of the mamas were so welcoming and friendly. I loved every bit of it.
