Hi, I’m Christine of My Healthy Penguin👋🐧
Since there are quite a few new faces here, I thought I’d introduce myself… which, honestly, is a little uncomfortable because confidently posting a selfie is not exactly my strongest skill. 😂 like, not at all.
I’m a wife, a mom to two kids who are now 22 and 17 😬 and the founder and CEO of MHP. I started My Healthy Penguin 10 years ago, kind of on accident, during my own health and wellness journey. (I honestly can’t believe it’s been over 10 years!) At the time, it was just me, an idea and absolutely no clue how big this would eventually become.
Today, MHP is an ENTIRE operation. It has different departments and an incredible team working behind the scenes. It’s no longer only about me or my story. It’s about the people who show up every week, care about what we do and have helped turn my original idea into something much bigger than I ever imagined. They believe in what we do, but also helps support their families.
And although I own a health and wellness company, I’m still human. I struggle with self-confidence. I don’t always feel great in my body. I’m still learning what balance looks like at 43 years old *cringe*, and I definitely don’t have health, business or life completely figured out.
What I do know is that wellness doesn’t require perfection. It should help you live your life, not make you feel like you’re constantly failing at it. If anything, I’ve come to learn and accept that also owning a business takes a toll on you - and this year, I made a promise to give myself grace and focus on myself and health first.
So, that’s me: wife, mom, CEO, professional overthinker and the very human woman behind the Penguin. 🫠😂🤷🏻♀️
