Hey, I’m Tara. A wife, a mother, a fitness professional and a recovered obsessor of diet and exercise. For over 15 years, I struggled to reach my goal weight by using exercise and food restriction to get there. I tried all the diets, exercised until my body would give out and spent more money than I want to admit on the next best diet. I finally saw the light when I started focusing on the right things.

A simple routine & handful of simple habits that I can be consistent with and have time for. A way of eating that I can enjoy life, without hopping into the next diet craze, exercising for my body to feel good and experiencing Jesus in a whole new way! And I’m ready to share it with you!
