Day to Day

I am self employed. My business is called State of the Heart Fitness here in Santa Monica. I used to have my business at the Loews Hotel in Santa Monica for 17 years where we offered wellness programs, exercise classes, & personal training to local members & hotel guests. As of a year ago, I've changed the form of my business & now focus more on wellness coaching, speaking, & personal training, but I'm also a writer (books). So a day can consist of training a client, writing & coaching clients.

"I moved from Minnesota to California when I was 20. I had a dream to finish college in CA after 2 yrs at a University in MN. People thought I was crazy because CA was expensive & I didn't know anyone. I had to take out a $2,000 loan to come here. "
