Squats and Thoughts, a health and nutrition show with Dena Jo!
From heartache to health, Dena Jo has transformed adversity into purpose. After her second back surgery (four in total) left her with chronic pain, nerve damage, and unable to work, she started to explore nutrition and exercise. Her greatest achievements are not the 5k’s and 7k’s she has completed, but is raising her autistic son, now 31, to be a high-functioning and thriving young adult. Now, she shares her experiences in hopes of empowering others that are struggling with chronic illnesses or the challenges of raising a child with autism. With a heart set on helping others, Dena Jo has turned her life challenges and her son’s autism diagnosis into a powerful purpose, an inclusive world that values all kinds of minds. I hope that my story will inspire you to face your challenges, with resilience, humor, and hope. Much Love, Dena Jo **The content on this site is for informational and/or educational purposes only.
