Trading
I began education myself on trading in 2021. I had Covid and was too exhausted to continue doing massage. I spent hours watching basic videos teaching me the language, the platforms, etc. I fell in love instantly. My first trade was a call on LCID and I came out green! It's been a journey but there's zero chance I'd give it up.
CrossFit
I've always been a fitness freak and in December I went to my first CrossFit class. What I love about it is it's super challenging and I'm learning new skills. I was unfamiliar with barbell work before and it took some time to learn it. (still learning actually!) I love the way it pushes me physically and mentally.
Creating
I thrive in creating. From the kitchen to dance to workouts to my new Etsy company, I find it lightens my energy and lifts my spirits.
