SARAH BORNEMISS; Faith through Challenges, Marathon Runner to Pro Bikini, Autism Awareness

In today’s episode, I chat with IFBB Pro Sarah Bornemiss, a 42-year-old mom of two, business owner, and former marathon runner who started bodybuilding at age 47 as a bucket list goal. She earned her Pro card at the 2023 Masters Nationals and now inspires others with her faith, resilience, and purpose. Sarah owns a business providing ABA therapy for children on the autism spectrum and is passionate about helping others live healthier, more intentional lives.

 

We discuss her journey through hormone challenges, living with Hashimoto’s, navigating identity after going Pro, and balancing motherhood, career, and prep. Sarah shares how her faith has guided her through hard seasons and how she’s learned to lead by example for her kids and clients.
