Who do you say that I am?

I was raised in Goliad, one of the oldest settlements in Texas with a population of just over 2,000 people. There were not many people around who looked like me when I was growing up. In fact, there were only a handful of African American families in the county. Of all the athletes on my […]
I am defined by God, not the world.

I grew up in a small, tight-knit, tribal community in southeastern NC. My family and elders taught me the importance of faith, humility, loving others, and celebrating my culture.

5 tips to overcome cravings

*Post updated October 2022 In my early 20’s I attended a women’s book study at my church on the book, “Made to Crave,” by Lisa Tykerust. I had been battling bulimia and knew that if I was going to defeat this giant, I needed the Lord’s help in a group setting. During the thick of […]
What is there to worry about?

“I don’t know what on earth I’m doing,” I said to my husband. When he asked me what I meant, I unleashed all my insecurities about all the changes I have made recently. I made a prayerful decision to switch my career focus to faith-based fitness and writing. I left a good and secure job […]
Fitness ideas for the whole family

As a mother of three young children and a Physical Education teacher, I know the importance of making fitness fun for everyone.
