Real Change
Moms voices are strongest when they join together to inspire change. This is why we created the LiveWell Moms Ambassador Program. LiveWell Moms know what’s important for Colorado families and do their best to lead by example—making healthy meals for their families, prioritizing healthy choices at schools, staying active, and having fun along the way. It’s not always easy, but sharing successes can inspire other moms to make healthy changes. Are you ready to join the LiveWell Mom movement and amplify your voice? Learn more about what it’s all about.
Sophia Ayala Gettys’ enthusiasm for healthy eating and active living is infectious, which is why we couldn’t be more excited to have her share her thoughts and personal journal with the LiveWell Moms community.
