You are doing a fantastic job leading this group! Your energy and your love for wellness get through to your clients. Keep being positive and spunky because a good attitude and kindness can be just as addictive as the bad stuff (food, soda, sedentary lifestyle, sugar) . Thanks again for all the encouragement Carmelle!!
