36 - Candice Berry - How her fathers death led her from Trinidad to the UK & everything that's happened since!

Candice was born and raised in Trinidad but when her father died unexpectedly she decided to up sticks leaving her job and boyfriend behind her to visit the UK. 

She married and had a baby girl but her husband up and left when her daughter was only 5 months old.

Thankfully through lifes ups and downs Candice went on to marry again but while pregnant with her second child she noticed something wasn't right. She was suffering from Pulmonary aneurysm and Factor V Leiden. The hormones in pregnancy triggers blood clotting and she found herself having to inject blood thinners twice a day. 

After having her baby and the health conditions she was suffering with Candice inevitably put on weight.  However, her consultant told her she couldn’t afford to gain weight due to the condition. This got Candice thinking about her fathers untimely death again  and she decided to do something about it. She just needed to start, do something, one small step at a time. As long as it felt good. 

The rest is history and now Candice is running her own health and wellness coaching business. Confident and Happy!
