I spent over a decade working in the field of policy and research, politics and communications. At the time, it was a dream to be able to contribute to conversations that shaped society and how we lived. Through that experience I began to realize the toll the pressure of that work began to take on me. I began to feel like I never had enough time during my day, that my waking hours were solely dedicated on news and solving deep-seated problems and that joy and connection with the people that mattered most was severely lacking in my life. That’s when I decided to take a pivot. I left in search of something more. I doubled-down on my personal fitness goals and became certified to teach Barre and other-related group fitness classes. I deepened my connections with family and friends and made a pivot. That pivot also led me to creating a wellness community, Curated By Britt. Curated By Britt is a community designed for women to aid in their own wellness journey.
