Greatest Personal Satisfaction

“My greatest personal satisfaction comes from being a mother.  Additionally, my family has been rock climbing both in our local gym and outdoors. Initially, I was afraid of heights and found the activity to be more traumatizing than anything – but after sticking with it, I overcame my fears, and it has become one of the most enjoyable parts of my life, providing me with an outlet for both mental and physical training.”
