This work, is not for some other person over there who is more racist than I am. It’s about me and it’s about you. It’s about all of us doing the hard work required to leave a better world for our children and their children. It’s about liberating ourselves. It’s about feeling good about the world we live in, the communities we are a part of and how we contribute everyday. It’s about doing our part, and if nothing else, being able to tell our children, and the next generation, that we tried. That we gave a damn.
I experience racism all the time. Yes, in California, yes in the Bay Area, and yes, especially in Marin County. Sadly it has been something I have accepted and learned to adapt to. My grief the last few weeks stems from the realization of how much, over the course of my life, racism HAS actually affected me. My ability to disassociate with this trauma in my day to day is frightening to me and is why I have been feeling so much grief and sadness these last few weeks.
It’s all coming out. One soppy, messy tear at a time. This is my story… Please read with an open heart.
Let’s keep moving together! Create a happy environment to workout at home and get all the fun toys you need for a strong workout! Even if you are planning to workout indoors again having a space in your home that you enjoy working out is so important.
Let the Fall Challenge Begin! The next LivFit Challenge starts today, October 9th and will run until November 19th. I am super excited to have you join me for this 6 week challenge to get ready for the holidays.
Oliveyah Fitness is partnering with the Marin County Parks to work towards restoring the wildlife habitat at Hal Brown Park at Creekside. Our focus for the day will be to eliminate invasive non-native grasses and weeds by burying them with layers of straw, cardboard, and mulch.
