I am military brat. One thing you always hear about military brats is that they move around a lot, and that’s true. On average, military families are assigned to a new installation every two to three years. And it’s usually not just a relocation down the street. We were often shipped across state lines or even to a different country. All of this moving, as you can imagine, can be pretty stressful. Growing up in so many different locations exposed me to a variety of diverse cultures, so I tend to be rather open-minded. I had to adapt to new cultures and make new friends every couple of years, and developed excellent social skills, easily finding common ground and striking up conversations with people from a variety of backgrounds. With these skills I have made and kept a number of long lasting relationships. My diverse group of friends helps me see the world through a new lens. I have an understanding of worldviews. As a young adult, I was always learning about new cultures, traveling to beautiful places around the world, and feeling the warmth and camaraderie that permeates through all military bases. It’s a wild and crazy upbringing that has enriched my life and so I feel I have become a talented individual, and I wouldn’t trade it for the world. I grew up doing sports as a way for me to open the door to relationships in school and everyday life. The gym became my second home. After college I was taken off the course a little and I was at a weight that was hard to be with every single day even if I am a polynesian. I then went into heavy dieting which turned out to be hard and very effective. When I made it back into the gym I was able to lose over 100lbs by staying close to lifting and trying olympic lifts every now and then. From there I joined the Womens Utah football league as a Middle Line Backer! I loved being about of something once again. After 2 months with the team, I injured my knee and needed major surgery. This killed my confidence and body. I ended up gaining a few extra pounds which was compounded by my social life with relationships that I was in. To keep a long story short, I found the girl of my dreams and she shared with me a dream that she has always wanted and I listened to that dream and wanted to be apart of it. I started going to a crossfit gym down the street. I have never regretted living into that dream since I started. I am now on track to be a once again fit and confident athlete, like I was in my younger years. I have a dream to have a family that will all be apart of this life. A life of unspeakable power, a life of perseverance, and a life that will last. I have lost inches, 30+ lbs, and most of all, I have lost those toxic thoughts that have haunted me for so many years. To some I am just another Lesbian in the state of Utah with a dream that can seem unattainable, but to me I am an aspiring athlete that has found my passion and will build a family along with it!
