My Story: From Eating Disorder to Fit & Strong

My journey to a life of health and fitness has not always been an easy one or one that I've been proud of, but I felt it was important to share this part of my story with you. Maybe you've struggled with body image or an eating disorder before or maybe you know someone who is currently struggling - either way, we all start somewhere and sometimes the beginning of our stories can be messy and hard and full of tears, but I promise if you invest in yourself and in your health, your journey will one day become brighter and clearer and will transform into something you are proud of.

Sonya Heitshusen: Investigative Journalist Turned Endurance Athlete

Sonya is a television personality very familiar to those who live in Des Moines, Iowa and surrounding areas - she has been an investigative reporter for Channel 13 News for many years and often shares her enthusiasm for health in on-air segments where she experiments with the latest trends in fitness and wellness. Sonya's own personal ups & downs eventually led her to discovering her passion for competitive endurance events such as multiple marathons and triathlons (she most recently competed in the Ironman World Championship in an effort to raise money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society). Her drive to spread a message of overall health and wellness inspired her to launch One Brain Wellness, which has given her a platform to empower others to live their best and healthiest lives.
