You’re Not Broken

You’re Not Broken.
If you’ve ever felt frustrated with your body…
If you’ve been told to “just be careful”…
If you’ve tried physical therapy or traditional gyms and still feel limited…

You’re not alone.

And you’re not broken

I Know What It Feels Like to Rebuild.

At 17, I was in a severe car accident. I fractured my femur, broke my jaw, ruptured my spleen, and was told I likely wouldn’t return to sports.

I rebuilt.

In college, I tore my ACL — twice.

I rebuilt again.

Years later, bacterial meningitis nearly took my life and left me without movement in my right arm. Physical therapy preserved motion, but strength had to be rebuilt from scratch.

So I returned to what I understood best:

Strength training.

Slowly. Intentionally. One movement at a time.

I rebuilt again.

That Experience Shapes Everything I Do.

I understand what it feels like when doctors don’t have clear answers.

I understand frustration, fear, and uncertainty.

And I understand how powerful it is to regain control of your body.

For over 15 years, I’ve coached people through injuries, joint pain, surgeries, and setbacks. Over time, I realized the approach resonated most with women over 40 — women who had spent years taking care of everyone else while quietly feeling weaker themselves.

Experience & Education 

• 15+ years in the fitness industry

• Functional Movement Screen (FMS Level 1)

• Functional Aging Specialist

• Ongoing education in corrective and injury-aware strength training

Certifications matter.

But empathy matters more.

I know what it feels like to be told there isn’t a clear answer. I know what it feels like to rebuild from the ground up. That perspective shapes how I coach every session.

Strength Changes More Than Your Body.

When you rebuild strength, something else happens.

 

You move differently.

You stand differently.

You carry yourself differently.

 

Confidence returns.

 

That’s what Aspire Fitness is about.

 

Rebuilding strength.

Restoring confidence.

Reclaiming independence.

 

At any age.
