Member Spotlight: Carmen’s Journey to Energy, Confidence & Joy

At Balanced Vitality Center, we believe true wellness is a team effort—and Carmen’s journey is the perfect example of what happens when community, love, and expert support come together. Over the past 8 months, Carmen has lost close to 20 pounds, reignited her energy, and rediscovered her joy. But more than that, she’s stepped fully into her power—moving, feeling, and living like her most vibrant self.

Staying Consistent: It Takes a Village

For Carmen, consistency starts with community.

“It takes a village—not just to raise a child, but also to help friends become the best and healthiest versions of themselves.”

She credits her amazing husband as her biggest cheerleader and motivator:

“He constantly pushes me to grow, even when I don’t feel like it. Without that gentle (and sometimes not-so-gentle) push, my days would look completely different.”

And just as important is the energy and accountability from the HIIT NEXT LEVEL and BVC community:

“They show up, they stay present, and they embrace all the wild, energetic, sometimes chaotic parts of me. I’m so thankful for them all.”

Advice to Others Just Starting Out

Carmen’s advice is full of wisdom, grace, and heart:

“You can’t pour from an empty cup. If you want to give 100% to the people you love, you have to be at 100% yourself.”

She reminds others to embrace their own path, setbacks and all:

“It’s okay to take a break. Just get back in the saddle—not for anyone else, but for you.”

The Progress So Far: Slow, Steady & Strong

Since beginning her journey, Carmen has lost nearly 20 pounds—but the real win is how she feels.

“I’m in no rush. This is my journey, and I’m embracing every step of it.”

She shows up for those 5 a.m. workouts, listens to the guidance from her BVC care team, and continues to move forward with intention and joy.

“There’s just no stopping me now!”

How BVC Helped Her Reignite Her Spark

Carmen speaks candidly about what was missing before she found Balanced Vitality Center:

“I was running low—on energy, peace of mind, joy… all of it. And while my husband is my rock, there are some deeply personal, womanly things even the most supportive partner can’t fully understand.”

That’s where BVC came in. With personalized care, lab testing, and thoughtful guidance, she found more than a health provider—she found a trusted friend in Dr. Veronica:

“Veronica has been more than just a doctor. She’s a true friend, a compassionate listener, and somehow always manages to lift your spirits.”

With the right support, Carmen is now feeling rejuvenated—mind, body, and spirit:

“I feel like I’m 23 again—full of life, full of energy, and full of me.

The Heart of Carmen’s Journey: Faith, Family & Feeling Alive

Carmen’s journey is fueled by faith and family, grounded in love, and powered by her relentless spirit. With HIIT helping her move younger and BVC helping her feel younger, she’s unstoppable.
