Hi my name is Greta - aka Gigi - and I'm on a mission to becoming 100% confident in my own skin while teaching others to do the same.

I'm no longer chasing "perfection". I'm embracing what I see in the mirror no matter what season I'm in. And I'm no longer trying to fit society's definition of beauty.

How did I get on this path?

I started my fitness and health journey probably around 2014. At this time, I had taken a Gap Year after HS and before heading to college. I started to notice how much my body had changed after traveling in Southeast Asia. I was "puffy" feeling, always looked and felt bloated, sluggish energy-wise. . .just not my normal self. In addition, I was struggling big time with depression during/after this travel period.

When I returned back to the states, settled into a job and prepping for the start of college-- I fell back in love with running, and also discovered the beloved Kayla Itsines and her BBG community. And I totally overcomplicated everything to do with me starting a "fitness journey". My mindset was obsessive around eating clean all the time and I was being heavily influenced by #Fitspo people on social media. It was time consuming let me tell you. The "diets" I attempted like, eating raw till afternoon, juice cleansing, teatoxing, etc.-- these all left me craving more. It took a lot for me to feel satiated because I was working out so intense and of course eating clean, but never fueling enough.

Fast forward and I've since recognized that at this time I may have been struggling with orthorexia. Don't get me wrong, I felt strong and lean and ate all my fruits and veggies and lean protein and healthy fats, and my physique was changing. . .but my energy didn't last, I was moody all the time, I was cranky if I missed a workout due to a social event, and still struggling with depression.

I'm sharing all of this because I've been there.

I'm just like you. We all start somewhere. I don't believe it's easy for anyone. Hence why it's called a "journey". My experiences have become lessons so I can propel myself forward in my future plus empower YOU to do the same.
