Julie Brown is a loving woman, devoted mother of two, a Y.O.U. Collective Coach. She is also a runner. She is proof that there is a fine line between hate and love as she turned a strong dislike for running into a full-blown passion. After trying and giving up on running several times, something shifted. Her marriage had fallen apart. She had lost more weight than she had to lose. Had gone to therapy and had started working with a trainer. When a friend told her that she had signed up for a half-marathon, Julie thought: “Why not?” That was the beginning of a new love story, in all senses of the word. She ran her first half and has run several since. In March she will be running another in her favorite city: New York City. In this interview Julie shares her journey from hate to love through running.

Originally from Romania, Ana-Maria started playing tennis at 5 years old before moving to Canada in her early teens. Her talent landed her a scholarship to the University of Oklahoma where she competed and completed a Bachelors degree in Psychology. After ending her professional career, Ana-Maria started coaching tennis back in Canada. We met at a workshop that I was offering just over 3 years ago. I sometimes forget when things actually happen, however I had brought my dog, Bali, as he was only a couple months old at the time and he is now 3 and a half. This was Ana-Maria’s first experience with life coaching and she is now one herself.
