🌟 Empowerment in Action! 🌟
I recently had the incredible opportunity to speak at the 2nd Annual Women's Health Seminar, hosted by Focused Mind and Body Fitness . During my presentation on trauma-informed care and self-defense, I shared my personal story, which encouraged others to open up and share theirs. It was a truly wonderful experience to be part of an event filled with inspiring stories and valuable knowledge. 💪✨
I'm deeply grateful for the chance to empower women and contribute to their health and safety journey. Being part of a community where each presenter shared their unique insights was incredibly enriching.
A big thank you to all who attended and to the amazing speakers who educated and inspired us with their topics. Let's continue building a strong, supportive community. I encourage everyone to sign up for the next Women's Health Seminar—you won't want to miss it! Together, let's keep empowering one another! 💜

Empowering Women Through Self-Defense!
I had the pleasure of teaching an empowering self-defense and situational awareness workshop on Friday, March 28 at East Main Church, Grove City, PA. 🌟 As a certified self-defense instructor and founder of the You Matter Foundation, it was a wonderful experience.
The workshop was open to women of all physical ability levels. While we practiced punching, kicking, and getting up off the ground, I ensured to modify strategies as needed for participants.
We had safety items available for sale!! If you want to buy safety items you can go to my webpage to order! .mydamselpro.net/MINDFULDAMSEL/PublicUi.aspx/shop

We just concluded an empowering 6-week women's self-defense class hosted by @bornoffirefitness in Greenville, PA, and what an incredible journey it's been! 🌟
A huge thank you to Ken Hillyer , the inspiring owner, whose philosophy of "Condition, Position, and Submission" guided our sessions. With "Conditioning Cardio," we emphasized the importance of being in great shape so we can position ourselves effectively and use submission techniques to defend ourselves when necessary. 🛡️❤️
Throughout the weeks, we shared personal stories, learned invaluable self-defense moves, and enhanced our situational awareness. The energy was infectious, and it was such a fun and informative experience for everyone involved! 🤸♀️✨
A great class that brought us all together in the name of empowerment and safety. Looking forward to more sessions in the future!
