When I have free time I'm doing this...
I’m very chatty. I love talking on the phone and connecting with family and friends.

Besides the incredible biking, hiking, zip lining, rafting, kayaking, and great company, I would say the unstoppable laughter was the best part for me!
The biggest lesson I've learned from iGnite is....
The power of a community of women. I have never been a part of such a loving, supportive, encouraging group of humans that want me to be healthy physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually! The workout environment is fun, challenging, and full of love! I feel blessed to have my iGnite family.
