Elia Carranza - Policewoman, Gym Owner, Pro Boxer and Community Activist
b'
I was introduced to Elia through a mutual friend and another Wake up the Sun show guest Ann-Marie Saccurato.\\xa0 I had the pleasure of sitting down with her 2 weeks prior to her next big fight to unpack the story behind her pursuing a career in fighting, her service as a policewoman and the opening of a gym to help others change their lives. She is all about her community and being a part of something that keep her and other accountable to living and celebrating the most out of life. "Put God First" and everything else falls into place.\\xa0
Elia felt she needed a change in her life and was overweight. She attended a class at South Florida boxing and was encouraged to adopt a new lifestyle, change some routines and rituals that were not serving her and move forward.\\xa0 In the past she did it for others and she learned that she had to do it for herself. That included better time management for her job, the gym and ultimately led her to opening up her own space.\\xa0 She is the proud owner of @levelupboxingandfitness who opens the door to others seeking to change something in their life.
Her big fight is coming up on April 29th so check out her page @elia_soulsnatcher & @levelupboxingandfitness for access to tickets.\\xa0 She is a true example of someone who truly dedicates her life to the benefit, protection and service to those around her. We hope you enjoy the show and see you at the fight!
