I was an assistant principal for 8 years and tipped the scale at close to 250 pounds. For several years, I tried to prove myself to others in order to advance in my career. I really wanted to be a principal of an elementary school. However, after many interviews and rejections, I decided enough was enough. I was done trying to prove myself! So, I closed that door, nailed it shut, and opened a new door! I left the school administrator life and went back into teaching. At the time, I didn’t know how this decision was going to make such a drastic impact on my health and my life!

During this podcast episode, I share my career detour story and how it has impacted my weight loss journey!
