M- POWER

M-POWER was at Skyline Gate on the Westridge Trail this morning. Starting the day with friends and a community of women that support one another makes life that much more enjoyable!

This week was the start of our first 12-week rotation of M-POWER. M-POWER started during the pandemic when everyone was told to shelter in. This program was started as a way for women to come together and find support, safety, and hope in each other. The group started with 20 and has grown with each rotation. I am amazed at how strong this group has become, and I am proud to say that we are women supporting women through the good and the bad.
This week’s challenge in M-POWER was to post a photo of yourself and explain when you felt the most vibrant. What were you doing at that time that you’re not doing now? What changes do you need to make in your life now to make you feel alive again? This is a photo of myself during a Spartan Race in the fall of 2018. I remember it was freezing cold that day, and a storm was about to hit the area. All I could think about was getting to the bottom of the mountain. But also, in that moment, I thought about how great it felt to be out racing, conquering obstacles, and feeling tired but ALIVE! That was one of the most challenging races I ever did. It is a time I will never forget. I’m a little older now and probably won’t do another Spartan Race again. But I am training each day like I might, meeting myself where I am right now and living to LIVE another day with as much grace and vibrancy as I had back then. Post your photo and tell us a story!
