Donna Phelan
Occupation
I retired as an I.T. analyst and now own a gym called KnowSweat Workouts. I am a kickboxing and fitness instructor and weight loss motivator.
I’m inspired by
Our gym’s weight loss program. I see people of all ages working out and getting fit—some of them for the first time in their lives. Their enthusiasm is contagious. There is always someone who proves that nothing is beyond reach if you refuse to give up!
Something you’d never guess about me
I used to weigh over 200 pounds.
My greatest achievement
Raising two kids, of whom I couldn’t be more proud.
Hidden talent
I am a backward compass. My sense of direction is so poor that if I say go north, the true direction is south. My daughter, Monica, calls it my “superpower.”
Monica Phelan
Occupation
Student.
Interests and hobbies
I love photography, singing, movies, music and hanging
out with friends.
Real-life hero
My mom! She does so much as a single mom, and she passes with flying colors.
My greatest achievement
Becoming the person I am today by overcoming rough times and being able to see the beauty in everything.
Hidden talent
I can find an interesting photograph in any person, place or thing. |
