The Story of a Champion❄️
Here is Vanessa’s story:
" Sports have always been my passion! I started competing at a very young age and was fortunate enough to turn it into a career. Working in sports management was a dream come true for me!
Over time, I started to feel like something was missing. I loved what I was doing, I had a good salary and great benefits, but I felt less and less like I was where I belonged. I needed a new professional challenge, while at the same time wanting to be more present in my children’s lives.
In 2017, I resigned and decided to start my own business. Movement has always been at the heart of my life, so I used that passion to create a business that promotes physical activity through Gym FIT and yoga classes. This decision brought a lot of fears and self-doubt. I even went back to university to earn a certificate in business management during my third pregnancy.
Today, I’m 40 years old, a mother of 3, and I can finally say that I’m exactly where I belong. My work schedule is unconventional, but it allows me to be present for the important moments in my children’s lives. My challenge is finding the right balance between my professional ambitions and quality family time. So, whenever I have to make a choice, I’ve developed the habit of asking myself whether what I’m doing in that moment supports the life I want to live. This simple question helps me adjust my path whenever I start moving away from my goals!
Throughout this journey, nutritious snacks also play a crucial role. They help me maintain my energy while balancing my career and family life. Whether it’s before a yoga class or after a Gym FIT session, these snacks support my commitment to an active lifestyle. " - Vanessa
