Each week, we’ll be showcasing one of our 5 community values to celebrate what makes our community of instructors unique. This week’s value is “Be able.” Udemy instructors are passionate about teaching, so we put in the effort it takes to learn, grow, and create. We know nothing worth doing is easy, and we persevere. “Teaching others about health, fitness and nutrition, inspiring them to live their best lives and go for the best possible outcomes is part of my purpose. I was born with a blood disorder and with spina bifida and I have been told from early age that I would never be able to exercise or dance. Later on, I have been diagnosed with hypothyroidism and have been told how I will have to take the thyroid medication for the rest of my life. Despite all that, I always had this determination to learn more about everything; therefore I started reading books about my conditions, about life... and the more I read, the more I realized that what I eat, if I exercise or not and how often, can have a great impact on my health and my quality of life. Therefore, just 6 years after the diagnosis, not only that I didn't need thyroid hormones anymore, but I also became a dancer, a fitness instructor and a health coach so I can help and inspire people to go beyond their so-called limitations.” - Sandra (USA) Share a hack or process that you use that embodies “Be able.”
