CURRENT MISSION

To enhance our own lives, to live each moment, to be the change we want to see in the world, and become better equipped to enhance the lives of others.

ABOUT ME

We are a loving couple who value strong friendships. We are supportive and respectful and hope for the same from others. We never give up fighting for what is important to us. We are creative, low-maintenance and love a good conversation over coffee. We are fairly laid back and often prefer a nice evening at home with a good tv series or a movie and game night with friends as opposed to a night out partying. Chad is more the extrovert, I am the introvert, but we strike a healthy balance between the two. When it comes to food, we like to keep it simple and we know what we like. One thing I (Jon) can not eat is onions. We enjoy hiking, exploring, climbing, dancing, staying fit, and of course window shopping lol. Give us a shout, we promise you won't regret it :)

PHILOSOPHY

We were both raised in Christian homes, and still hold to the values we learned.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being my own personal trainer at home and losing over 50 lbs of fat and successfully keeping it off after struggling for years with my weight. Then seeing the before and after. It shows the power of determination and consistency.

Teach, Learn, Share

Budgeting on low-income. Losing weight quickly and safely and keeping it off permanently. Buying groceries for one person for a week for just $20. Saving money making less than $200 per week. Handling stress, anxiety and depression. And then some.
