TELL US ABOUT YOUR FAMILY!

Will and I met just after college and have been married for 12 years. We have 2 girls, Brooklyn (6) and Izzy (2). We have a few four legged babies as well, 2 dogs (Josie & Daisy) and. a horse (Ty).

WHERE ARE YOU ORIGINALLY FROM?

Here! Born and raised in Broomfield :)

WHAT IS/WAS YOUR CAREER?

Prior to kiddos, I worked as a Business Systems Admin/Developer for BVSD for almost a decade.

HOW DID YOU FIND OUT ABOUT FIT4MOM AND HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN A MEMBER?

I found Fit4Mom through the Avista new moms group and have been a member ever since (6+ years)

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE PART ABOUT FIT4MOM?

The community! We have found so many special friendships here. I like to call Fit4Mom the community I didn't know I needed :)

WHAT HAS INSPIRED YOU THE MOST SINCE BEING A PART OF FIT4MOM?

Seeing other moms continue to invest in self care despite some incredible challenges. It has given me the spark I've needed at times to work through my own difficult times.

WHAT IS SOMETHING THAT HAS SURPRISED YOU ABOUT MOTHERHOOD?

How incredibly fast the years go! You hear about it all the time, but it's difficult to appreciate it until you go through it for yourself.

WHAT ARE 3 OF YOUR FAVORITE THINGS?

My family, exercise, and cake frosting

WHAT IS YOUR PROUDEST MOMMY MOMENT SO FAR?

The first time Brooklyn jumped a jump on my horse. I was equally proud and terrified but my heart felt so full!

WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE A NEW MOTHER?

Every phase is temporary, even though it may not seem like it at the time. Try to focus on the good, even when things are really hard. You are doing an amazing job, even if it doesn't feel that way. Give yourself lots and lots of grace! (and then some more)

ANYTHING ELSE YOU'D LIKE TO ADD?

I am truly grateful every day for the community I have found here!
