Happy Birthday to the heart of Empowa — our very own Mrs EMPOWA, Jody! 🎂🧡
Before Empowa, fitness helped Jody through one of the hardest seasons of her life.
She was grieving, her body was in pain and she knew she needed to pull herself out of a rut.
She started training… and within a week, she felt HAPPY again.
That journey eventually led her to bodybuilding, where she took on something that once felt completely out of reach.
Even when life outside the gym became challenging, she kept telling herself:
“Finish what you started.” 💪🏽
Then in 2014, she took another massive leap and opened Empowa — nervous and admittedly having no idea what she was doing.
But she knew exactly what she wanted to create:
🧡 A place where women felt comfortable.
🧡 A place where women felt connected.
🧡 A place that wasn’t intimidating.
🧡 A place where women could do life together.
And that’s exactly what Empowa became.
Jody’s message to our ladies today?
Life will always throw challenges at you. You can’t always change that — but you CAN change how you respond and choose not to be defeated by it.
Happy Birthday Mrs EMPOWA. 🥳
Thank you for the smiles, the laughs, the love and for creating a place so many women now call their second home.
We love you Jody! 🧡
