The Values That Built Us (And Keep You Going)

I didn’t sit down one day and decide,
“Let’s pick five cool values to slap on the wall.”

They were lived before they were written.

At 29, I was divorced.
Drowning in debt.
Numbing myself with alcohol.
Trying to make it look like I was okay when I definitely wasn’t.

I was tired of being stuck — and sick of my own excuses.

So I set one goal: pay off my debt.
And what came from that season wasn’t just a clean bank account…
It was the grit that built me.

I learned to work hard.
I learned to stay humble.
I learned to fail forward.
I learned to believe in myself.
And I learned that even when it feels impossible — there’s always a reason to stay positive.

Now those values live on at Prevail.
Not just as something we talk about — but something our members live and breathe every single day.

This Is Bigger Than the Workout

Let me tell you something:

You don’t keep showing up to Prevail just because of the kettlebells.
You keep showing up because this place makes you better — not just stronger.

When you…

• Mess up a rep but keep going anyway — that’s Fail Forward.
• Cheer for someone else even when you’re struggling — that’s Stay Positive.
• Show up when it’s hard and do the work anyway — that’s Work Hard.
• Try a new movement, even when you’re scared — that’s Believe.
• Celebrate your progress without needing to be the best — that’s Be Humble.

These aren’t just gym values.
They’re life values.
And if you’re here, you’re living them, too.

If You’re Struggling Right Now… Read This

You don’t have to “get it together” before you show up.
You don’t need a meal plan, a fresh start, or the perfect mindset.

You just need one next step.

Try this:

• Pick one value from the list above. Just one.
• Ask yourself, “How can I live this value today?”
• Then do one small thing that puts it into action.

Because how you show up in the gym…
Is how you start showing up in your life.

And if no one’s told you today — you’re doing better than you think.

If you’re tired of trying to do it all on your own —
