Q: What are the top 3 things that you do to stay healthy?
A: I think there are many benefits to staying “fit to fight,” and a physical fitness regime is therefore a necessity. As such, I am religious about running, calisthenics (pushups, abs exercises, and other core strength building exercises), and weights. I’m addicted to running endorphins and those who know me generally don’t want to be around me unless I have had ... READ MORE »

Q: In theory, one should prioritize their own health in order to be in the best state to take care of others (family, kids, work, etc.). But in reality, I’ve found that women often take care of themselves last. What are your thoughts on this?

Q: In theory, one should prioritize their own health in order to be in the best state to take care of others (family, kids, work, etc.). But in reality, I’ve found that women often take care of themselves last. What are your thoughts on this?
A: Sadly, this is true. I love my kids, and I love my work, so I feel very fulfilled. I must remind myself, “Hey I took my kids to the dentist, now it’s my turn.” READ MORE »

Q: In theory, one should prioritize their own health in order to be in the best state to take care of others (family, kids, work, etc.). But in reality, I’ve found that women often take care of themselves last. What are your thoughts on this?
A: I see this problem a lot. The first step to mental and physical well-being is admitting that you are the most important person in your life. Take care of yourself, and you will be the best caretaker. I am married with three children (7, 3 and 3 months), and I need to be on my game physically and mentally. I am a ... READ MORE »
