Approach to Wellness:
I believe there is no single recipe or definition for wellness. Everybody is different and everybody’s definition of wellness is different. In a society where wellness is made into a product, it’s easy to believe that wellness is associated with a specific behavior, or lifestyle. But wellness is defined by you as an individual, and the activities, lifestyle, and behaviors that make you feel happy and healthy. My goal is to empower people to find their own definitions of wellness and help them set meaningful goals that will allow them to attain their own definitions of wellness. Life isn’t one-size-fits-all and wellness shouldn’t be either.
Personal Interests:
In my free time, I can be found reading a book in the coziest locations I can find. I love reading but I refuse to do it unless I’m outdoors or in comfiest chair possible. I love finding new coffee shops or parks to explore. I also love trying new foods. Recommend any restaurant or dish to me and I will try it and become obsessed with it right away. Otherwise, I'm most likely forcing my cat to watch a movie or a binge a TV show with me.
