Today we’d like to introduce you to Ashli Cabonias.

Hi Ashli, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I grew up dancing I was very active as a kid, after college. I realized one day that I was not happy with where I was in life, or with how my body looked.

So, I decided to take action I hired a trainer and put all of my effort and energy into the body I wanted. It took time but threw the journey, I realized that I wanted to help any and everyone that felt the way I did.

So, I went back to school started coaching group classes, and eventually opened my own training business.  Now I help others be Fit and Happy, learning that balance between life and fitness.

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
The journey was not easy and many times I had to make some hard life choices, but I tried to remember threw it all that “Nothing worth having comes easy”.

I learned more about myself along the way than I ever thought possible. It gave me the strength in many ways I never fully understood until later in life.

But it is what lead me to where I am today, and I could never thank myself enough for toughing it out and sticking with it.
