About

Hi, I’m Maria! For years, I struggled with an eating disorder, anxiety, and depression. In college, I fell in love with running. And for the first time, it felt like my racing mind matched my racing body. And so the journey and the healing began.

Through many years of therapy, along with learning how to better care for my body through running, fitness, nutrition, and faith, I conquered the mental health issues that were always holding me back.

Now, I help women care for their minds and bodies through fitness coaching and hormonal health support. I’m a certified run coach through RRCA, a certified personal trainer through NASM, and a FEMM instructor.

I’m a firm believer that we need to address and take care of the whole person. As Saint Ignatius of Loyola said, “It is not the soul alone that should be healthy; if the mind is healthy in a healthy body, all will be healthy and much better prepared to give God greater service.” And isn’t that the greatest goal of all? To love and to serve God? 

I think so. And I’m happy you’re here. I hope RunningMyselfTogether brings you the next step forward in your health and healing journey. I hope this community can help you know and understand just how loved and cared for you are by a good, good Father.

Because you deserve to have a healthy mind, body, and soul in this beautiful life that we get to live.

In Christ,

Maria
