Describe yourself in 3 words:
Ride or Die.
How has Inspired Wellness impacted your life?
I tore up my ankle when I was in college and couldn’t run for about a year and I kind of let everything go and my body never really recovered. This is the first time in about 10 years that I’d consider myself ‘in shape’, which feels good and empowering and so forth.
