Tell me about yourself
I’m in my mid-thirties, living in San Francisco as a single mama with a kiddo in elementary school.
What do you like about Movejoy?
Movejoy has been an ideal support system as I build up my exercise habits. As a parent, it’s hard to find the time for exercise, and it’s great to have an accountability group that gets it. It feels flexible, like I can do whatever exercise works for me on a given day, no judgement.
How do the exercising regularly make you feel?
This new daily routine makes me feel calm, peaceful, and organized. Regular workouts help my mood and make me feel energized and better able to focus.
When and what were you doing when you were living your best exercising life?This is it! I have asthma that was only diagnosed recently, so exercise has definitely been a challenge for me for most of my life. I’m excited to have an inhaler now so I’m more prepared for exercise, and Movejoy is helpful in figuring out how to fit this new routine into my life.
What’s the scene when you are in peak indulgence mode?
Laying in the sunshine at the park with a book, a coffee, and a fancy pastry
What makes self care hard as a parent?
There are so many things to juggle, it’s hard to build and keep a consistent routine
What are you most excited to do post pandemic?
Go to my favorite spots in the city, like SFMoMA, and travel to see friends and family out of town!
