Lisa Whitmyer of Cleveland, Ohio is a Lisa is a sales executive for a NASDAQ-traded healthcare company that sells products for breast, cervical cancer and other women's health-related issues. Lisa's mother was diagnosed with breast cancer at a very early age with no risk factors that would have given her any indication that she would be afflicted with such a deadly disease. Subsequently, she endured the physical trauma of a mastectomy and chemotherapy. She also dealt with the emotional turmoil that affects so many women today. Over women are diagnosed with breast cancer every year. Lisa's mother ultimately survived the ordeal. As a result both Lisa and her mother became committed to women's health issues, and improving their overall health and well being. Being at risk for breast cancer changed Lisa's perspective on fitness and overall health, and she made the commitment to turn a traumatic life experience into a motivational one. Lisa has been awarded the rights to own and develop multiple elements fitness clubs in her city, creating a platform for women to come together in an environment of health and wellness.
Six years ago as part of Lisa's commitment to a healthier lifestyle, she began to train as a triathlete. She has competed in Half Iron Man competitions, and is training for a Full Iron Man. Women can reduced their risk of breast cancer by changing the things in their control and fitness and diet are two of the things that can be positively affected.
When Lisa found elements, it was the perfect fit for her business and personal interests and goals. She committed herself, when her mom was sick, to improving women's health, and she also committed herself to a lifestyle that would improve her health. Her mother also made dramatic diet and exercise changed to improve her health after her ordeal. These two women made conscience decisions to positively affect their own lives and the lives of other women.
