My day is like\u2026  <\/strong>whatever I want it to be. Some days it is in my stores, some days I am getting massages and taking naps. It always includes some sort of movement though (pilates, workout with my trainer, hike, walk outside) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was born\u2026 <\/strong>In Ogden, UT. We lived about an hour away from Ogden so not sure why that is the hospital my parents chose to have me at lol <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m listening to\u2026 <\/strong>The Model Health Show (podcast)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My family\u2026<\/strong> is the best. We are competitive and stubborn, and also very loving and giving.  <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If I could have dinner with anyone, it would be\u2026 <\/strong>my DeeDee (my dad\u2019s mom) and Grandma (my mom\u2019s mom).  There are so many conversations I wish I had had with them while they were still alive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I was younger, I wanted to be\u2026 <\/strong>a teacher, a nurse, a marine biologist <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m inspired by\u2026 <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The one person who motivates me is\u2026  <\/strong>Amy – my intuitive mindset coach & friend<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If I could change anything in the world, it would be\u2026 <\/strong>that there is more love and compassion, and acceptance for people regardless of differences. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The perfect day would be\u2026<\/strong> sitting on a beach and exploring Greece with my man <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My first job was\u2026 <\/strong>a teller at a local gas station in the small town I grew up in<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My favorite escape\u2026 <\/strong>getting a massage or the beach, or a massage on the beach lol <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My life\u2026 <\/strong>is abundant and full of blessings<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m currently working on\u2026 <\/strong>redecorating my home <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Always\u2026 <\/strong> love<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Never\u2026  <\/strong>judge<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Favorite Quote\u2026  <\/strong>enjoy the little things in life, because one day you will look back, and realize they were the big things <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biggest Dream\u2026  <\/strong>traveling the world for a year <\/strong>with my man<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My Pet Peeve(s)\u2026 <\/strong>when people leave their shopping carts all over the parking lot instead of putting it in the designated cart return area, or when people drive in the carpool lane when it isn\u2019t carpool lane hours lol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
