My name is Shalini [rhymes with ‘colony’] and you can call me Shal - like a shawl you wrap around your neck. 🙂

I’m a cradle Catholic but really began to cultivate my relationship with Jesus in college. Since then, prayer has been a nonnegotiable in my life - and it’s looked different [and imperfect!] as seasons have changed.

I’m also a wife to my best friend, Matt. We’ve been married for a bit over 6 years and it’s been a beautiful ride. We’ve learned a lot along the way and realize more each day what a true gift it is to be on each other’s team for life.

I’m mama to our gal pal Callan - she’s 5. A firecracker of a girl! We also have a little one in heaven who would be 4. You’lll see our pup, Sullly, too on occasion. 🐾

Just like you, I’ve had and am still on my own wellness journey. One that currently looks like navigating Endometriosis, secondary infertility, and working to heal my gut from the inside out. We each walk different paths, but at the end of the day, we all desire to be our healthiest selves, don’t we?

My goal here at Pray. Train. Grow. is to create a space that serves you in your needs as they relate to prayer, nutrition, fitness, discipline + daily growth. Little by little, brick by brick. 🧱

As a certified fitness trainer, nutrition coach, soon to be nutritional therapy practitioner, writer, and speaker, I’m here to educate and encourage you on your own wellness journey and can’t wait to see where He takes you!
