I truly enjoy being healthy, fit, and strong—both physically and mentally—not just for myself, but to inspire others to do the same. When you lead authentically by example, people notice. I believe deeply in the power of influence that comes from living your values. Inspiring others to inspire others creates a ripple effect, strengthening the community and driving meaningful, lasting change.

The training system I follow has been developed over years of athletic experience and guidance from outstanding coaches. I begin each workout with a cardio-based warm-up to increase circulation, elevate my heart rate, and prepare my muscles for movement. I then focus on targeted muscle groups, allowing for intentional training while ensuring adequate recovery between sessions. Several times a week, I incorporate sauna use to support recovery, circulation, and overall physical reset.

I’d start by paying off my debt so I could create a real sense of stability and focus on what matters most. From there, I’d invest in my health and continued personal growth. I’d also make it a priority to give back by supporting—and helping create—programs that give kids and communities access to movement, outdoor experiences, and overall wellness. I truly believe health shouldn’t be a privilege; it should be something everyone gets to experience.
