Many of you know, or maybe you don’t, that my 2nd son Diego was born with a genetic defect and after months of in and out of the hospital, many times for weeks at a time in icu, we were in the Ronald McDonald house staying the night. Parents of critically ill kids are put on a waiting list and depending on the severity among other factors, you get to stay there on the hospital grounds where we spent many a nights over that year and 3 1/2 months he was here with us.

I remember distinctly one night after many laying there in that bed, trying to go to sleep, we had been in the hospital 3 weeks in icu already, not knowing what the future held, would he make it through this time….& I prayed, asking what to do about work and if I was to continue working or stay home.  I had 2 degrees, we needed the money, how could I stay home??  (even if I desperately wanted to and I did!) …After crying my eyes out, my heart aching and feeling a huge weight on my shoulders, not knowing what to do, where to turn, how would we move forward, how would we pay bills, would we sell our house….

Ever since then I’ve felt called that at home is my place, not necessarily to solely raise my kids because I believe I have a bigger purpose and call on my life…but to have the flexibility to work from home and to make my own hours, my own schedule alongside raising them…so when I found this opportunity to run a virtual health & fitness business.  And how fitting that it aligns with my values on health and fitness, inside and out.

Every day I work my business I am honoring my son.  He brought me home and although he’s not here with us…he’s with us in spirit.  He lives on through this business and his legacy will always be remembered.  He’s the beat to my heart along with my other kids.  I used to take my body and my life for granted before I had my son that was born broken and had no choice. …so when you join Fit Full Circle know that you are part of his story and you’re keeping his memory alive and spreading the message to live life to the fullest & not take it for granted.  fit full circle – mind | body | spirit | emotion.
