Tracey is married to her best friend Ryan, and together they have four children and 1 grandchild. Houston, TX is where she calls home. Favorite takeaways: 1. I am a huge advocate of listening to your intuition- to really listen to that, because doctors mean well, but nobody knows our bodies better than we do. 2. Watch me. Don’t tell me I can’t do something, I will prove you wrong time and time again. 3. You can do anything, it might just take time. It’s gonna take time, it’s gonna take effort, it’s gonna take a lot of work and a lot of consistency and a lot of practice, but you can do it. 4. The more I talked about it, the less power it had over me. I had to acknowledge my story- I had to own it to move forward. 5. This is for you, not against you. Lean in and search for the lesson that it has to offer. Struggles are not the enemy- struggles are opportunities in disguise. 6. What we put on repeat in our brains is a choice. Choose to believe that you will become stronger because of this. 7. Struggle plus reflection equals the lesson. Lesson plus application equals growth. Growth equals progress, progress equals happiness. Struggles can actually equal happiness if we allow them to. 8. How are you going to love your neighbor if you don’t know how to love yourself? It starts with yourself. Love yourself first so you know how to treat your neighbor. Kindness stems from love. 9. You never know how your kindness could save a life. That’s how powerful kindness is. 10. When we don’t feel good we don’t give good. When we feel better, we do better, when we feel like crap, we give crap. Find more from Tracey here:
