About Me
My name is Simonette (pronounced C-mo-nay), but everyone calls me Simo. I am the proud creator of DF FIT. I have two beautiful sons, a wonderful husband, and an amazing God. I am an ISSA Certified Personal Trainer and Nutrition Coach and currently working on my Human Movement Specialist certification through the Brookbush Institute.
With all of this I am an overall Wellness and Empowerment Coach and I have one goal in mind for you: Help YOU find what works for YOU.
Fitness is truly for everyone and encompasses many things but in different ways. My goal is to help you find your way, your worth, and what is the best option for you. I will help you to create goals that are attainable and work with your lifestyle. I understand what it feels like to think you cannot do something because of your size, your medical conditions, and even simply because you are a woman.
That is going to change today!
I have had my ups and downs with fitness for those reasons. Not knowing what I needed for MY body type and medical conditions made it very challenging for me. Walking through multiple seasons of depression and anxiety made it challenging for me. These things made it so easy for me to keep negative thought patterns in my mind that did not drive my journey in a healthy way. I was in therapy and just fighting my way through my own mind. I had to learn how to work through these things and overcome them so I could focus on having an overall healthy relationship with myself versus killing my mind, body, and spirit. I was using fitness and society’s vision to bury all that negativity deep down, saying I was the healthiest I’ve ever been when I was not. Bringing God into my life and my struggle changed up the game! Little by little all these walls were beginning to come down and a fresh perspective on my life was growing.
Once I learned how to focus on me, my needs, and with God at the center of it all, I became very passionate about helping others find that exact same thing. Find what’s realistic for each individual person that will drive consistency. Find who they are in Christ so that they have a greater desire to love their temple as God loves. I have found when the focus is put more on individual needs, versus following what is established for someone else, you can excel further in your journey and focus on giving yourself and your body what it truly needs, further allowing God to pave the way.
​
For me, a healthy lifestyle is so much more for than physical fitness. It’s about taking care of not only the physical piece but, your mental, emotional, and spiritual health. I love helping others see how much all these things connect, helping you to have a well-rounded experience that does not leave any portion of your health out. I make it a goal to help you learn to embrace yourself where you are, so it is a little easier to embrace how you reach your goal and the purpose God has for your life.
​
Hard work and all.
​
I love to have fun during programming and training because why the heck not?! While I want to ensure you put in the work, I want to ensure you have fun as well. And again, this is all based on you and your needs. Working with me will give your mind clarity, your heart acceptance, and your body power from within. Your confidence level will skyrocket because you will know YOU did this, YOU put in the work, and YOU showed up for YOU.
