About

Welcome to Born To Move.  My name is Elizabeth and I intend to inspire you with wellness ideas that will benefit your entire family.

Healthy Moms Create Happy Families

As Moms we are role models, therefore taking care of ourselves is critical.  Yet often exercise, healthy eating and relaxation are the last on our list of priorities.  Born To Move offers simple solutions encouraging moms to find balance and fun, while living a healthy lifestyle.

My Background

I graduated from college in 2000 excited about a career in health promotion.  For the next two years, I designed and managed worksite wellness programs and worked as a personal trainer.  In my free time I discovered marathon running, mountaineering and yoga.

In 2004 I graduated with a Masters in Public Health focusing on Health Promotion and Education.  Soon after graduating I went on to attend massage therapy school, seeking more information about complimentary and alternative medicine.

I currently work from home representing a product that allows people with upper limb restrictions the ability to communicate through their computer.  I am motivated everyday by those who can not move their limbs, but seem to live their life to the fullest, aspiring to do more than some that have full mobility.

My two year old daughter Louisa provides me with more inspiration than I ever imagined.  Louisa is fun loving, incredibly eager to learn and LOVES TO MOVE!  When Louisa and I are not dancing around the house or reading piles of books, we are outside running with our trouble-making dog, Ben.

I don’t aspire to run marathons anymore.  I aspire to find balance in everyday, put a nourishing meal on the table that will delight my foodie husband and toddler – not always at the same time.  Move comfortably and freely, taking care of the one body I was given.
