When I taught Spinning I said this in every class. The only limitations we have are those we place on ourselves. . Change is hard. It means no longer being comfortable. It means doing things you don't necessarily want to do. And it's ok if you don't want to do them. But then that means you'll be average. You'll gain those average results. . That's No Way I'm what I want. I don't want to be ordinary. I didn't survive just to exist. If I give into all the scapegoats and excuses I'll be in the same place next year that I am right now. . It's been really difficult to accept certain truths about myself. Things have changed and things are different. Life evolves and so have I, not in every way like able - but it's changing regardless of my acceptance. What am I doing? Getting out of my own damned way!!! #NoLimits #beunstoppable #ThisExtraOrdinaryLife #EveryDayIsAGift #goals #BreastCancerSurvivor #BeFearless

A year ago today I sat in the hospital having a blood transfusion. I went in for pre-op testing for a minor procedure to stop some excessive bleeding. Turns out I had lost so much blood in a weeks time they wheeled me straight into the ER. The doctors told me that my organs could have shut down - which seemed to scare me after the fact. We knew there was a problem and we were going to take care of it .... God works in mysterious ways and I'm forever grateful that everything worked out the way they did. . Yesterday I received the most amazing promo video for the http://ift.tt/1lSZump photo gallery slated to be on exhibit in January. Here is a still from the promo. The photo shoot was empowering. The amazing photographer Camile @ciao_bella_photos was so easy to work with and she helped me feel beautiful in my own skin. Her objective was to do exactly what it's called - find the heart within the warrior of us survivors. Although I looked to her for direction she asked me what I wanted to see. . We all had a different approach to the project and I'm looking forward to seeing them all. The shoot was six months after the transfusion. I seriously believed I would walk out of my final surgery and move right back into real life. It's been much more challenging than I expected. The health issues that landed me in the hospital are thankfully behind me. . Today I look back ONLY to see how far I've come. Today I rocked out an hour of cardio and weights where last year I couldn't stand without shaking or walk up five steps without feeling like I would pass out. This year hasn't been smooth sailing either but you know me. I never back down from a challenge. π. . This promo video (you can find it on my FB or inbox me to see it) solidified my strength and my determination to propel myself forward and the strongest survivor I can be. Just as those who did so before me - the ones that lead the way - who taught me survival is not only possible but can be had on my own terms. F*ckinG AWESOME!! . Thank you Camile and your amazing crew for making this happen and bringing out the warrior in us all. π
