2025 Happy New Year!

Farewell 2024

 A year of resilience born from countless challenges; courage forged through unwavering spirit. 

 We grew slowly, planting deep roots, and rising with strength awakened by the storms. 

 When waves crashed, we embraced the stillness. When tides turned, we became the wind. Healing flowed like a river, guiding us toward horizons full of light and possibility. 

 Today, we honor the wealth this year brought—it’s heartbreaking moments, its radiant new paths. No regrets, only wisdom woven into our life force, shaping tomorrow with grace. 

 Celebrate for the promises we kept to ourselves, the progress we made, and the times we held steady through storms. For the lessons learned from our hearts, and the changes they inspired. 

 2024, a year of courage, love, and endless hope, has changed us forever. We step forward, radiant and ready. 

 2025 Happy New Year!

Where to from here?

I posted on my Facebook "Retire with Fire" Page that I had decided not to renew my physical fit trainer certification of 21 years. Over the years I have learned to truly affect our physical, it starts with our mental. The focus of positve self talk has developed interestingly through the years and going forward there is going to be a focus of helping from a new perspective as a Life Coach. A Life Coach with a focus of balance, physical and emotional well-being, and greater consciousness and self-awareness. My FB personal page was hacked and disabled. I tried for long time to get assistence from Facebook with no help or acknowledgement. Years of family memories gone. Be aware folks and don't post things that you don't have duplicates, it is not secure to keep your memories. I cannot access my Fit Page/Grandmother Sandy as it was linked to that profile. It is frozen in time the day my profile was taken away, October 7, 2023. It is https://www.facebook.com/retirewithfire and there is a link on the right side of this page. Of course, I will not be using Facebook for anything important. Going forward I hope to focus here on the website and build a sharing spot for our reflections.

Retire with Fire!

“A prescription to walk 30 minutes per day could be one of the most important prescriptions a patient could receive.” – Dr. JoAnn Manson

Happy New Year! Wow, didn’t realize so much time had passed since I posted here. (Remember you are always free to check out latest posts on my FB page, just click on the Retire with Fire link to the right.) I have been knee deep in my own recovery lessons and picked up momentum to well being after my physical issues in 2015. Due to my setback I have learned by living it again, how very much what we are able to consistently do adds to our feeling good….. even on that day you make think it is insignificant to where you want to be or where you were. I learned more this time, I believe due to the references I had already lived, than I did many years ago when I first started this journey. As always, I will emphatically say, there is absolutely nothing that will give you a higher return for your time spent than physical exercise. We need it to be our best selves, just start by walking 30 minutes a day and see how much better you feel! Only 30 minutes in exchange for better well being all day long! I have set a goal for a 5K in 2016 and looking forward to Retiring with Fire!
