Fitness for a Cause was birthed from my desire to help other moms like me get fit and healthy. I believe the key to being a  mother who is present starts with health and wellness.  Without proper nutrition and exercise, parenting can be a challenge. When you are mentally and physically sound, you can execute your parenting duties without being foggy. 

For moms who care for loved ones who are elderly and or disabled, health and wellness are important to handle the demands life brings as a caregiver.  Lifting my son, who is over 80lbs at one point, took a toll on me. I struggled to support my son and his weight during a period when I was my worst. I was barely surviving, and taking care of him was a  burden instead of joyous.  

The day my leg gave out while I had my son in my arms is the day I knew I needed to start pressing buttons to achieve better health and wellness for his sake.  110lbs later, I have successfully conquered my demons, and now I can gift the fruits of what I learned to others while caring for my son with much more ease and strength. His life is better because I am better!
