Speaking for Go Red

clipped from hopehealingempowerment.blogspot.com Today I had my first official speaking engagement for Go Red for Women. It was at the downtown YMCA and given to about 15 YMCA employees. The YMCA is trying to get their employees to incorporate healthier lifestyles options and felt my story would help motivate them and give them ideas that work. I shared with them some of the things we have incorporated into our lives as a family. Things like using spices other than salt, finding ways to exercise in the everyday like walking or biking places, making treats at home where we have control over what goes in them rather than buying store bought treats and ordering a salad rather than fries when eating out and skipping dessert.
