This month we're so excited to feature Linnea as our Chompian of the Month! Linnea is a nursing school student who empowers individuals to take charge of their health, and is focused on maintaining a balanced approach to health and wellness in her own life. 

Can you tell us about yourself - what you do, a bit about your story, etc.?

I’ve always embraced an active lifestyle, which has been a key part of my journey since being diagnosed with diabetes at the age of 5. This early experience taught me the importance of health and wellness, fueling my passion for nutrition and fitness. Throughout my life, I’ve focused on maintaining a balanced approach to health—whether it’s through running, hiking, playing soccer or simply enjoying other outdoor activities. My love for health has also shaped my educational path. I’m currently in nursing school, where I’m gaining the skills to support others in managing their health journeys as well.

What’s your best tip on how to stay positive?

My top tip for staying positive is to find purpose in your life. When you have a clear sense of purpose, it acts as a guiding light, helping you navigate challenges and stay motivated. Whether it’s pursuing a career you’re passionate about, engaging in community service, or setting personal goals, having a purpose gives your life direction and meaning. It fuels resilience and brings joy, even during tough times.

How do you consider yourself a “game changer?”

I choose to transform challenges into opportunities for growth and inspiration. Living with diabetes since age 5 has shaped my perspective, driving me to advocate for health and wellness not just for myself, but for others as well. In my journey through nursing school, I’m learning how to empower individuals to take charge of their health, using my own experiences to connect and motivate them. I believe that by sharing my story and promoting a positive mindset, I can encourage others to embrace their own challenges and find purpose in their lives. Whether it's through fitness, nutrition, or simply being a supportive friend, I strive to make a meaningful impact and inspire those around me to see the potential for change within themselves.

What’s the best thing you do for your personal health everyday (mental or physical or both!) that allows you to be the best version of yourself?

I read my Bible, make sure to move my body and hang out with people that push me to be better!

How are you planning to challenge yourself in the next year?

I am hoping to train for and run a marathon this year! I want to emphasize balance and allow myself to grow in a variety of areas in my life while maintaining a busy school schedule.
