I Am
ONE OF YOUR TRANSFORMATION TEAMMATES THAT BELIEVES IN YOU.
I feel like a new person. My name is Rhonda and I have 3 wonderful children. I work in the Mental Health Field and I am enjoying life more all the time.
A year ago, I was around 20 lbs heavier and not as happy with myself as I wanted to be . There were many wonderful people and many blessings in my life. But I was just not living at a true level of peace and happiness. I felt like there were problems beyond my control and I was kind of stuck trying to figure out what to do. I was depressed at times and dealing with active addiction and other stress, as well as, trying to maintain my own recovery program and parental responsibilities. Regret and resentments from my past, along with grief was threatening my self love again. Also, trying to juggle the challenges of having a new love relationship and redefining a past love relationship with beautiful children to care for and make #1.
Through Transformation and God shaking up my life, I am learning, changing and growing into a new way of being. I am so thankful for life and trying to become a better person every day so that I can be who God wants me to be. I care about my children and my family. I care about loving others well and being an encourager to help other people live in freedom and happiness. I care about being strong and living long.

The Butterfly! Gradual change to something different . I guess transformation can be sudden, but it usually takes time and hard work ! It also means STEPPING INTO OUR GOD GIVEN DESTINY WITH CONFIDENCE AND HUMILITY.

2. RUN DALLAS 1/2 MARATHON IN 3 HRS.
3. INCREASE PRODUCTIVITY & HAVE MEANINGFUL DAILY WORK LIFE.
