Over the past year, I’ve been on a journey. Destination? Inside my head. August 2017 was a month of reflection, and it brought me to a few realizations.

Overall, I was not healthy. I was a little bit unwell emotionally, and very unhealthy physically. I was not sleeping well, I was sore all the time, and I noticed I was having trouble keeping up with my kids or playing on the floor with them for extended periods of time.  I was also struggling with self-confidence and my appearance (something men avoid talking about, but deal with just as often as women).
