Hey there!
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by and to dig a little deeper into finding out what Breakthrough Faith and Wellness is all about.
My name is Mikki and up until about a month ago, I thought I was all done with the whole blogging/website thing…
…. But God... He likes to keep me on my toes…
You see, I started blogging back in 2004. First, as a means to keep in touch with family after we moved and then eventually evolving into a healthy lifestyle/food blog. I stopped in 2018 though because I was tired of jumping through all the hoops of the algorithms and such you had to go through to ‘try’ and stay popular.
At about the same time I stopped blogging, I also started getting more and more interested in fitness. Which was TOTALLY new to me.
You see, for years I have loved encouraging and teaching others on how to eat healthier, be aware of how our food is grown, and how to live a more organic/natural lifestyle, but fitness was NOT my jam.
I would like to go for long walks and dance around, but organized choreographed workouts – nope.. not me.
BUT GOD….
Yup, He had other plans. He tends to do that. I think He likes it… He likes to shake things up in our lives to keep us guessing and stretching us in our faith.
In 2018 I came across Revelation Wellness and started to really enjoy doing their workouts. They were so encouraging, inspiring, and a lot of fun to do. I was happy just following along, working out in my living room by myself…
BUT GOD…
In late 2018, I started having A LOT of conversations with God in my prayer time that went something like this
“Um, God, why do I keep getting the sense You want me to sign up for Revelation Wellness training? Are you serious? Me a fitness teacher? You have got to be kidding!” ~Me
“Nope, not kidding. You CAN do this.” ~God
“Yea, no thanks. I’m comfortable here.” ~Me
“That’s it Mikki, you’re comfortable. I want you to grow. I’ve got plans for you. Plus.. you like to dance around, here’s an outlet for you AND you get to tell others about Me in the process.” ~God
” Yea, I don’t think I’m hearing you right. Me a fitness teacher?” ~Me
“YES, you a fitness teacher. Actually a Fitness Teacher Gospel Preacher. You can do it. Sign up. ” ~God
The conversations were a lot more detailed than that and we went back and forth for a while, but eventually, I filled out the form and I signed up.
In the spring of 2019, I officially became a Fitness Teacher Gospel Preacher. I started leading in-person and online workout classes and I LOVE IT!! I have a great group of people who support me and have fun moving their bodies in worship right alongside me. It’s Awesome!
But God… yea, He wasn’t done there. His plans for me are obviously a work in progress (which is actually kind of cool)…
