SHARON PALERMO
MARKETER | COACH | ATHLETE & MORE

The concept of These Ladies Lift came out of a period in my life where I was struggling with the direction in my professional and personal life. I work as a marketing professional. It pays the bills and while it has provided me with amazing experience to learn new concepts and contribute ideas and content that helped propel products and brands, it simply didn’t fulfill that piece of my life I felt was missing. I knew what I didn’t want, and was figuring out what I was passionate about. I had my Aha moment - I have been pursuing goals within fitness and I had a hunger to push more and do more. I also wanted to share my personal achievements on a scale that would inspire others to go after theirs. These Ladies Lift is the platform in which I can do that. I wanted to bring communities together so that we could share our experiences and empower each other in and outside of the gym.

In the past I coached fitness programs for children and adults for the YMCA and currently I volunteer as a Coach for MPAL. I understand the importance of being healthy and fit and I believe it is important to introduce individuals to fitness programs that they can connect to. My son who is a great inspiration to me introduced me to CrossFit - I was always curious but intimidated to try it. I loved it. I was able to get out of my comfort zone. I have been lucky in that the decision to try CrossFit actually bought me something more than I expected - a community, where we encourage, drive and support one another to reach milestones we may not have thought possible.
