I am falling in love with my body more and more each day.<br />

I FEEL MOST POWERFUL<br />

WHEN I AM PUSHING MY<br />

BODY TO THE LIMITS,<br />

challenging myself and watching my body respond. After giving birth<br />

to two girls, working full time, and finding no time for self care, I was<br />

having a hard time loving myself. <strong>The</strong> change came when I decided<br />

to take care of my body first and foremost for myself, then for my<br />

family, and staying active with my girls.<br />

To the beautiful Black women who haven’t embraced wellness yet, I<br />

say, take one small step each day. Take it one day at a time, and over<br />

time you will build up healthy habits, strength, resilience, and feel<br />

powerful.<br />

Wellness means being healthy, being happy, being fulfilled, and also<br />

being strong. We all deserve that!<br />
