My story so far.... . If you’ve been around a while, or followed me through the years, you may know a little of my story. For those that are new here, hi. 👋🏼 . I’ve gone by a lot of titles through the years - mom, model, hairstylist, veteran, wife, and mostly recently NPC competitor. Some might see my jump into fitness as a sudden change, but it’s actually anything but. . Growing up I was a track and cross country athlete, as well as an avid weightlifter. I idolized the fitness competitors and models I saw gracing the covers of Oxygen and other fitness magazines. When I started getting tattooed (at 16 years old), a part of me just accepted that fitness modeling wasn’t in the cards for me because there wasn’t anyone in the magazines that looked like me. . Fast forward to last year, after dabbling in modeling a decade and being told I was too muscular and to scale it back, I said enough is enough. I finally dedicated myself to following my dreams, even if there was no one that looked like me in the industry. . As a heavily tattooed mother of 4 children there is no one out there doing it (what I aspire to do) that looks like me. I don’t see any IFBB figure pros or successful fitness professionals with my look, with my background, and I’ve decided to be relentless in my pursuit of being the first. . If you have no one to follow, make your own path. . #goaldigger #futurefigurepro #bikinitofigure #relentlesspursuit #bethefirst photo by @davidnguyennow (at Queen Creek, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bw_FWGTnoTA/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ia63ftmomyni

Malayo pa, pero malayo na.
Three years ago, I made one of the scariest decisions of my life.
I walked away from the comfort of a stable paycheck and the security of a job I had outgrown.
I had no guarantees, no clear path ahead, just a burning desire to create something more for myself.
I felt fear, doubt, and uncertainty every step of the way, but I knew deep down that staying where I was meant staying small.
But here’s what happened when I bet on myself: Today, I’m earning five times what I used to make. FIVE TIMES. Let that sink in.
What once felt like a distant dream is now my everyday reality.
I’ve surpassed what I thought was possible for myself, and the journey doesn’t end there.
Right now, I’m being trained for a role I could have never imagined back then: Chief of Staff.
Yeah, the person who once felt stuck and uncertain is now being prepared to step into leadership at a whole new level. It’s mind-blowing to even write that out.
None of this was easy.
It wasn’t some fairy tale transformation.
It was filled with sleepless nights, relentless hustle, and moments that nearly broke me.
There were sacrifices, things I had to let go of to make room for this growth. And yet, every single one of those tough moments brought me closer to this reality.
Three years ago, I couldn’t have seen this coming.
I was that person looking at others living the life I wanted, thinking they had something I didn’t, thinking that kind of success wasn’t meant for me.
But I’ve learned something powerful along the way: Success doesn’t belong to the lucky. It belongs to the relentless. It’s for those who are willing to step out of their comfort zone, to push forward even when it feels impossible, to take the leap without knowing if the safety net is there.
Now, as I stand on the edge of this new chapter, I realize how far I’ve come.
I’m not where I want to be yet, but I’m so much closer than I ever was.
There’s still a mountain to climb, but the view from here already feels like a victory.
From a place of fear to a place of power, I’ve learned that I am capable of so much more than I ever gave myself credit for.
The growth has been real, and the best part is, I’m just getting started.
Malayo pa, pero malayo na. And I’m just warming up.
