Hi, I'm Jess...professional juggler of three kids, two businesses and one amazing husband. We are constantly on the run trying to fit as much life and coffee into our day as we can possibly experience. Not only do we own The Core, our beloved gym, but also the sweet health food store next door, the Sunshine Shoppe. I am passionate about healing our bodies with real food and supplementing only when necessary because let’s face it, we spend too much time in the drive-thru of Chick-fil-a and Starbucks and well…snot happens. We know health doesn’t mean eating grilled chicken and broccoli every day for the rest of your life. Health encompasses all areas including the sometimes necessary stress relief from a glass of wine with friends or a really good burger…with bun. For the most part we try to live what we teach which is eat for fuel, move daily and safely, forever learn, and live with the ultimate purpose of loving God and loving others. Our businesses are the perfect environments for us to practice our purpose and we are so honored that God has given us the responsibility to care for our community by creating a family focused health hub where crazy schedules, energetic toddlers, and maybe even a dislike for working out are no longer excuses….which was totally me! Of course, there is always more to our story and we would love to share our lives with anyone interested in new friends who use words like WOD in everyday conversation, possibly covered in something sticky, always running late but love to eat, drink, laugh, hug and strive for wholeness!!

Jess
