When you put your heart and soul into your goals, you can make anything happen ā¤ļø
Meet TanyaāU.S. Air Force veteran, RN, mother, caretaker, and an overall badass woman šŖš»
Sheās done a lot of incredible things in her lifeā¦ constantly stepping outside her comfort zone and pushing her limits. And in just 4 days, sheāll step on stage for the first time as a WBFF Wellness competitor. Following Fitness Atlantic, she will be competing in her first HYROX competition in June!
This prep took grit. Through less-than-ideal circumstances, Tanya never let up. She kept pushing, kept showing up, and made it happen for herself.
Coaching her to the stage has been nothing short of a pleasure.
Here is a glimpse into Tanyaās experience ā¬ļø
āI didnāt commit to this fitness competition just to transform physically. I did it to find myself again.
For years, I havenāt felt truly healthy. Stress from work and family responsibilities took a toll, and somewhere along the way, I lost me. This journey became about so much more than getting in shape, it became about rebuilding my mindset, my confidence, and my self-worth.
Iāve struggled with self-doubt and low self-esteem for a long time. Throughout this prep, there were moments I spiraled more times than I can count. But each time, I kept going. Iām learning to set boundaries, to focus on myself, and to understand that itās okay to be a little selfish when it comes to your own growth.
I am especially grateful for Cait. Whether in the gym or just a text away, she always showed up for me. From meal plans to training plans, to reminding me how far Iāve come with progress photos when I needed it mostāshe never let me give up on myself. Her support, patience, and belief in me made all the difference, and I truly couldnāt have done this without her.
Right now, I feel like me again. I feel strong. I feel happy. And Iām so grateful for this journey and the people who helped me through it ā¤ļøā -
