Maria Cecilia Escobedo

Maria Cecilia Escobedo isn’t your typical wellness coach – rather, she’s been where you are. She’s been a tried, overwhelmed mother of five, just counting down the minutes until nap time so she could have a break. She was unhappy, out of shape, and wondering if this was really what this vocation was supposed to be like.

Until a moment of grace when the Lord reminded her that in order to show mercy to others, you must first show mercy to yourself. That moment leads to Maria taking strides to improve both her health and her prayer life, and to founding Catholic Fit Moms for Life where she now helps dozens of women be intentional disciples by strengthening their bodies and inspiring their souls through nutrition, exercise, and prayer.
