Looking back at where she started and realizing just how far she’s come: “When I think about what I can do now that I couldn’t two years ago… it pushes me to keep showing up and improving every day.” Fuel, Rest, Repeat Vanessa credits her gains to staying on top of two key habits: Eating well 🍽 Getting good rest 😴 These habits have helped her recover, build strength, and stay energized for every class.
