Hip Hip Hooray

I don’t often post photos of myself however this time I had to share.

Women’s Fitness Adventures turned 5 this month – May 2019. WOW

At our recent Supper Club Dinner one of our amazing C.R.E.W Leaders, Jane, hijacked the introductions to present me with the Dr Suess Book “OH the places you will go” which we refer to often. (the picture is me with a limited edition hardcover of the book)

It was a surprise, it was beautiful and I tried hard not to cry.

Here is what she said

Dear Yvonne, 
Congratulations for creating Women’s Fitness Adventures. Reaching your FIFTH year Anniversary is truly a highlight in both your creativity and resilience.

To create a company that has integrity and meaning and has been sculpted by your passion and belief in empowering women to be healthy and adventurous in life definitely comes with highs and lows, sadness and gladness.

You lead with your heart and this means we are in for great things as we continue on the trek to the next phase of Women’s Fitness Adventures.

So.. as a famous author once wrote..

On and on you will hike far and face up to your problems whatever they are.
You’ll get mixed up, of course, as you already know.
You’ll get mixed up with so many strange birds as you go

So be sure when you step. Step with great care and great tact and remember that.

Life’s a Great Balancing Act.
Just never forget to be dextrous and deft.
And never mix up your right foot with your left.

And you will succeed?
Yes you will indeed!
(98 3/4 percent guaranteed)

Kid, you’ll move mountains!
So Yvonne Shepherd you’re off to Great Places!
Today is your day!
Your mountain is waiting.
So.. get on your way!

Celebrate this milestone and be proud of what you have created.
