I Built This Program Because I Needed It First

A few years ago, I hit my breaking point.

I was burnt out.

Running a business, constantly grinding, trying to make something of myself…

But behind the scenes? I was crumbling.

I felt pressure every single day - to be the provider, the leader, the one who had it all together.

But inside, I felt like a failure.

I wasn’t happy in my body.

I wasn’t proud of how I was showing up.

And even though I was helping other people… I was losing myself.

I didn’t tell anyone how bad it got.

The weight gain. The body image issues.

The nights I’d spiral and question everything.

There were days I didn’t want to wake up.

Days where the pressure felt unbearable.

And I convinced myself:

“This is just what sacrifice looks like.”

“Other people are allowed to thrive - not me.”

“I’ll feel better once things calm down.”

But they never did.

Until I realized the problem wasn’t just my habits -

It was the story I kept telling myself.

That I had to suffer to succeed.

That taking care of myself was selfish.

That I didn’t deserve to feel good in my body until I’d “earned it.”

Everything Changed When I Made One Decision…

To stop waiting.

To stop trying to fit my life around someone else’s meal plan or workout program.

And to finally build something that worked for me - and for the people like me.

I started small.

I focused on systems, not willpower.

I didn’t cut out foods.

I didn’t train for hours a day.

But I showed up - imperfectly - every damn day.

And slowly, I started to change:

I dropped over 50 pounds.

I rebuilt my strength and my routine.

I stopped hating my reflection.

I started feeling like me again.

It didn’t just change my body.

It gave me my life back.

That’s Why I Built the Hansen Health Academy

Because I know there are other parents out there just like I was -

Giving everything to everyone else.

Running on fumes.

Feeling like they’ve “lost themselves” in the process.

This program wasn’t built for fitness influencers.

It wasn’t made for people with unlimited time or perfect genetics.

It was built for real parents.

People with stress, kids, careers, full schedules, and zero time for B.S.

Inside the Parent PWR Method, we focus on:

Small daily wins

Flexible nutrition (that includes your favorite foods)

Strength training made for your schedule

Mindset shifts to break the all-or-nothing cycle

Sustainable systems that stick, even when life gets messy

You Deserve to Feel Proud Again

Not just because you lost weight -

But because you stopped abandoning yourself.

If you’ve been stuck in a loop of starting and stopping…

If you’re tired of chasing perfection, and ready to build something that lasts…

Then this is your moment.

Not for another plan.

But for a new path.

I’ve lived it.

I’ve built it.

And I’d be honored to help you walk it too.
