ABOUT

Through the challenges that life presented me, fitness became my “safe-space” and allowed me to learn what I was really capable of physically, mentally and emotionally. This is my story.

GROWING UP, I STRUGGLED WITH CONFIDENCE

From the time I was about 8 years old I knew I was built differently from my siblings. They were long, lean, and athletic looking, and I was built, well, more like the Italian side of my family...

I wasn't overweight, I was just different. And different growing up can be viewed as bad.

So, I ended up developing a habit of panic and anxiety whenever a social event was approaching, assuming the first thing people did when I walked into a room was judge my body and appearance. 

Can you relate?

BUT THEN I FOUND MY ESCAPE

In my mid-teen's an all women's gym opened up right behind my high school and I was instantly curious. My mom was planning to join so I asked if I could go with her, and from there, I found my escape. 

I couldn’t wait to get out of school and head to the gym. I would listen to music, sweat my butt off, and feel so strong and empowered! 

It felt amazing. I slowly noticed changes in my body and energy as I slowly built my confidence back up too. 

It was also a very peaceful experience for me at the same time, and that's how

I learned about the important connection between physical and mental health on the body.  

FITNESS BECAME MY SAFE SPACE

Finding fitness allowed me to learn what I was capable of physically AND mentally.

 

It also kick-started my passion to learn all about physical health and how I could make a career out of it.

 

And when I was 19 years old, I became a personal trainer at that very same women's only gym, my safe space. 

 

I started my journey there, teaching, training, and educating myself as I worked towards the level of trainer I am today.

I LOST MYSELF ALONG THE WAY...

In my mid 20’s I had a lot of personal things consume my life, and I really wasn't happy with how things were going. So I decided to spend some time figuring out who I was and what I actually wanted for myself and my life.

 

Even though there were people around me that couldn't understand my decision, I chose to leave my entire life behind anyways. The relationships, the friends, the house, the personal items - I just left it all because it was necessary for my happiness. 


During this time the gym is what kept me grounded. It was the only place that could bring me any sort of peace or clarity in my life while it was flipped upside down. 

THE EYE OF THE HURRICANE

During the hardest days I repeated a mantra I once heard: Peace within. Chaos all around. “Eye of the hurricane.” 

I resonated with this so much that I got “eye of the hurricane” tattooed on my back to symbolize my life during the hardest times, and where I strived to find peace inside every day while I built everything in my life back up from scratch. Which I did.

Since then I have studied and continued to learn everything I can about fitness. I also competed in a few fitness competitions, each one teaching me so much about myself - from the way to properly train/eat to obtain a certain physique, to creating discipline, tenacity and confidence that would carry over into my everyday life.

ALL MY TRAININGS COULDN'T PREPARE ME FOR THIS

Now, fast forward to age 28 and two c-section postpartum journeys later, which have been anything but easy to bounce back from. 

 

Aside from going through the mental and emotional journey of postpartum recovery, I also had to relearn how my body worked and how to do exercises that used to be easy for me.

 

My first c-section with my daughter led to A LOT of hip and back pain which was debilitating for weeks on end. I didn’t follow the proper rehab for my body, but I was still exercising, even though the pain would limit or completely halt my movement. 

 

It wasn’t until my second c-section with my son that I decided to take my core  rehab seriously, and it was the BEST decision I made to heal my body properly.

DON'T NEGLECT YOUR BODY OR MIND

Why do we neglect what our bodies have naturally been through, or the self care we need to take for our emotional health?

 

Giving birth is part of life! We grow and carry humans, using our bodies to bring them into this world, so you NEED to take proper steps to get your body working properly again - TRUST ME. 

 

Going through my postpartum journey, I have become even MORE passionate about helping women on their health and fitness journeys.

 

Especially those who are struggling with body dysmorphia, are having troubles finding themselves, or have the additional challenges that postnatal brings.

WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY...

"I've lost 25 lbs on Becky's program! Just when I was about to give up I decided to give it one final go. Where do I begin? Trying new foods, and my family has joined in because there is so much variety! They don't even realize it's technically good for them. I've made a continuous effort to hit my step goal even as I continue on my own. I didn't have any expectations but I'm so happy I started! To my surprise I've avoided the weight gain I normally deal with after diet plans. This is literally life changing. Thank you Becky!"
