A. My Fitness company Flawless Fitness Spa is a personal training service, I’m currently doing most of my training virtually and I also provided Wellness Empowerment coaching. Helping people to Heal, rebuild while empowering them ...mind, body and soul. I started in this industry over 14 years ago, as I was healing from my own childhood trauma God began to show me my purpose through fitness. I’ve often said fitness saved my life. I was a cosmetologist at the time.

Q. I see that you have a book called “Through the Pain I Rise” tell us more about the book?

A. My book “Through the pain I rise...lets talk ... Whew Chile lol...I release it last year May. It’s about my healing process the stages and things that I went through and how I had to heal from, molestation, rape, domestic violence, verbal abuse. I had a whole lot of healing to do, I sat down over 14 years ago and began to heal myself, forgive, love myself and see myself as God sees me. I had no idea I would be writing a book about it at the time. But God showed me that I had to write and that it would bring healing to a lot of people.

Q. I see you do Live body blast how has that been going, and can you give us more details?

A. Yes, I do Daily Live Stream workout Classes via zoom ever since the pandemic Covid-19. I literally had to revamp and tap into the virtual training market on a more consistent level. So, each day is a completely different workout. I do 2 classes Mon-Fri and only one class on Saturday. Registration is on my website at www.flawlessfitness.biz class cost is $100 per month or $15 per class.

Q. What are some of the advantages and challenges ofbeing fit?

A. Whew Chile... how much time do you have... lol advantages of being fit I have to say you look good in your clothes, you feel good, your confidence level goes up, it’s an added benefit to your business and brand when you live the lifestyle yourself. It teaches you how to be discipline, dedicated, the perseverance in other areas of your life.Challenges... I would say is pushing your body to new levels figuring out what works for the now over 40 body vs the 25-year-old body as far as foods certain foods may not agree like they did in the 20’s. Good thing my metabolism is still good.

Q. What advice can you give other people that want to be healthyand fit?

A. My advice would be seek professional help. Seek a personal trainer that you vibe with but most important one that is knowledgeable and cares about your goals.

Reach out to that trainer. Understand that it is a lifestyle change. Commit to yourself.

Q. Tell us yourjourneyofbeing in fitness?

A. My journey in fitness... I’ve always been athletic, small and petite. (but I was skinny fat because I ate all the wrong foods) So I don’t have a physical pounds weight-loss story. My story is being traumatized, mental unhappy and bent up (I don’t like to say broken). That is the worst weight to me. I say that because its mental your mind. Your mind controls everything you do, say, feel and believe. It takes years to break the cycles in our heads and generational curses off our lives. Detoxing the mind, body and spirit. So, my journey is one of healing, rebuilding myself so I can be empowered. I did overcome bad eating habits greasy fatty foods that caused me to be placed on high blood pressure pills. I took ONE pill and NEVER AGAIN. I began to change my eating habits with the help of a few friends.

Q. Are you working on any projects right now?

A. My project is the Women’s Cabin Retreat that’s coming up in OCT 23-25 Blue ridge Ga. The Release, Renew and Refresh.
