Mind Over Matter
Miami native Harvey Palacio is your friendly neighborhood trainer who encourages others to become the best version of themselves by following a mindfulness-first focus. “Fitness is a brick-by-brick process with small victories day in and day out,” he says. “The biggest obstacle isn’t how heavy the weight is or what it says on the scale — it’s about you vs. yourself.”
Wise Yogi
Growing up in Venezuela and moving to the U.S. at 18, Katherine Ng couldn’t imagine living anywhere other than Brickell. When she’s not at work as a Clinical Pharmacist, you can find her on a yoga mat or hanging out with her dog, Chloé. “Remember that wellness is always going to be your own journey,” she says. “You’ll only be happy if you’re not following in anyone else’s footsteps and instead aim to forge your own path toward success.”
