Dear Suzanne:
Today is my 40th birthday! It is also just days before the one-year anniversary of my joining your Alpha class.
I am in better shape than I was 5 years ago, and the best overall shape I’ve been in in the last 10. Since I started virtual training with you, my eating habits and water intake have improved significantly. I can do assisted pull-ups! I am sane despite COVID.
I want to take the opportunity to thank you for helping me to make this happen. I recognize that I must do the work, but you have been a constant source of encouragement. You have challenged me to push myself. You have motivated me to accept and even look forward to those challenges. I am stronger in many ways as a result.
In addition, my kids receive the derivative benefit of seeing what fitness is. As a mom, this pumps me up. They know I need time each day to do my workouts. They see me try things that are hard and keep pressing forward. Together, you and I are modeling to them the importance of exercise and caring for our bodies.
I am thankful that you stepped forward into your new career to share your success with me and others. I appreciate the time and effort you make each week to keep me engaged. So, I thank you for your role in helping me truly make 40 the new 30.
Have a lovely day,
Cassie
