S.K. All of us have our own distinctive story and I have been persuaded to reflect on mine. Perhaps sharing my story will empower someone. I began working with Genesis Transformation a year ago. Prior to that I had taken a class called Women on Weights. I wanted to get stronger in my yoga practice […]

Cary Jo Hofstad, Genesis Coach ‘PUT YOURSELF ON YOUR TO-DO LIST’ I heard this somewhere and love it. How many of us have a list of things to do, people to see or call, and appointments to keep? Do we put ourselves on that list? I learned this the hard way a few years ago. […]
