Coach Holly at The Resilient Strength

According to physics, bumblebees can’t fly, but nobody ever explained physics to bumblebees, so they fly around anyway. Ben Bergeron

They say the two greatest days of your life are the day you were born and the day you find out why. I remember calling my mom from a Whole Foods in Seattle after a class and saying that teaching was what I was meant to do. I loved it. At the time I was teaching masters of raw dessert classes and I believed so strongly in the power of good nutrition that tastes good to change your life. I knew it but it didn’t quite fit yet. A few years later I found myself in front of my fir...st athlete. They’d reached out to say they wanted me to coach them, and that they’d wait til I was certified, something I honestly hadn’t thought of doing yet. I was still a chef at several restaurants. Shocked that someone would want to work w me this much, I signed up for a cert immediately and we started at a discounted rate so I could learn. It clicked. This. This was where I belonged. It’s now been many years and many evolutions since then to get to the @theresilientstrength but I still feel grateful every day that the thing I love doing the most is what I get to do w my life. Strength is rad. Strong people are the raddest. See more
