The fitness instructor talks about Sundays growing up in Jamaica, cooking for the family and going live on Instagram
Sundays growing up? I was born in Jamaica. My family was very religious, so every Sunday I’d have to put on my Sunday best. Church is the foundation stone for who I am. It teaches the importance of belief. It puts standards in place that I’ve maintained my whole life.
Sundays now? The biggest change is when you start taking responsibility for a family and split your energies. My message to everybody is this: you are the most important person, you need to remember to look after you. But try telling that to a mother who has children. It’s easier for men, but there are still men who are neglectful of their mental health. My mission is to get the word out for everyone to look after themselves.
