STACY KEIBLER
A MODEL OF HEALTHY LIVING INTERVIEW: MARANDA PLEASANT
MARANDA PLEASANT: What makes you come alive or inspires you? STACY KEIBLER: People who love their bodies and understand the importance of feeding it properly. I get so fired up when I speak to others who share this same philosophy. MP: What makes you feel vulnerable? SK: Seeing much older couples embracing one another. I feel inspired to reach out to my closest relationships in an effort to do my part with keeping our bond strong. MP: If you could say something to everyone on the planet, what would it be? SK: Show kindness and respect to everyone. Pure intentions make the biggest difference. MP: How do you handle emotional pain? SK: I become filled with anxiety and hurt as a natural reaction. Then I resort to my gratitude journal. I make it a point to think about and write down all of the things I have to be grateful for, and this helps me immensely. MP: How do you keep your center in the middle of chaos? Do you have a daily routine? SK: I breathe, I calm my heart, and I call my soul sister. MP: What’s been one of your biggest lessons so far in life? SK: I learn every day, and I know that I will never stop learning. To date, my biggest lesson may be that judgment of others is never a good thing. We never know the issues others may be facing, and it isn’t up to us to judge actions and behavior. If I’m not happy with how someone is showing up, I can only be honest and hope that my feelings resonate and inspire a deeper look into oneself. MP: What truth do you know for sure? SK: That no matter how much you know, how well read you are, how traveled or cultured, you should never stop learning. MP: Why are these important to you? SK: I will never stop trying to find new ways to promote healthy living. It’s my passion and my mission to help others understand what’s necessary for our bodies to function properly. Right now, though, my main focus is on becoming a new mom and giving the best of myself to my husband and growing baby.
