Overcoming Obstacles: From Pre-eclampsia to Body Building with Bridget Boston
This week Emily interviews, Bridget Boston, a mom of two who started her weight loss journey 4 years ago after having her first child. While she was pregnant with her first born, she developed pre-eclampsia and was put on bed rest. Her OB encouraged her not to gain any weight during pregnancy but how do you not, when you’re put on bedrest during your second trimester due to an elevated blood pressure? Bridget shares her story and how she has slowly lost 135 pounds over four years and is now participating in a body building competition in July. After becoming pregnant with her daughter she was determined to live a healthier lifestyle to prevent pre-eclampsia. Bridget is so energized from her own journey that she’s encouraging others to achieve their health goals.

Overcoming Obstacles: Just Keep Pushing Forward with Ginna Shellhammer
This week Emily continues the Overcoming Obstacles mini series and she interviews a strong mom, Ginna Shellhammer, that had her first family home taken away from her. Everything seemed to be going well until she received a foreclosure notice. Her husband’s work info was hacked and they stole all their money which made them late by 16 days of paying their mortgage, once. Somehow a portion of their loan was transferred to Wells Fargo but they were requiring they pay the full note on their loan which was about $75,000 or else lose their home. Ginna and her young family were forced out of their home for one payment that was late due to a ridiculous hacker. It really makes you wonder who holds your loan especially if you worked with a broker when you secured your home mortgage? Listen to this week’s episode to learn from Ginna and what she’d do differently when buying a new home.
Ginna mentions MERS during the interview. Learn more about your specific mortgage and who holds your mortgage loan.
