Entering My Healing Era

Entering My Healing Era

As I sit and reflect on God's grace and mercy over the past few weeks, all I can say is Thank you!Having emergency surgery opened my eyes to another level of healing and life, one I never imagined I'd have to experience, not as healthy as I thought I was. But here I am, and I couldn't be more grateful that I listened to my body.


It’s funny how God has a way of sitting you down to reflect on His plan and not yours.

During my recovery, I found myself asking three important questions, and I want you to reflect on them as we enter the last quarter of this year:

1. What’s been the biggest thing holding me back this year? 
2. What past pain have I allowed to stop my progress? 
3. By 2025, what will my biggest transformation be?

When I think about where I was mentally before this journey, and where I am now, I know one thing for sure, I never want to go back.

For me, fitness has always been more than just getting in shape. It’s been my lifeline, my peace, my safe space. It’s my job and my passion! Fitness helped me heal when my pain felt unbearable.

But healing isn’t just physical or emotional; it’s both. As the scripture says, “He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” (Psalm 147:3) God has been my healer, helping me release pain from my mind and body. Even in moments when I felt vulnerable, I learned to trust His process and the people He placed in my life.

This new era of healing is happening within my body, forcing me to step outside my mind and trust God’s plan. I’m letting go of cycles of pain and embracing peace and joy, just as God intended and I invite you to do the same!
