Introducing this month's spotlight candidate, Emily Cotton!

That's basically the cutest little family you'll ever see! We asked Emily a few questions, since she's such a fan of MOD, & an inspiration to strong women everywhere!

If you could describe your personality as a season, which season would it be, and why?
Summer! Warm, fun, and pretty predictable 😊

The ultimate caramel frappuccino ! Decaf of course! I’m super sensitive to caffeine. 

What is one of your proudest accomplishments in life so far? 
1) Birthing my children
2) Running a full marathon 

What's your inspiration for living a healthy lifestyle?
We only get one chance at this life. I try to do my part in taking care of this body so I can enjoy the most time with my family and friends.

My husband is always there encouraging me to be the best I can be. I have the best family and friends!

Giving birth to my son, Denver. I wanted to experience an unmedicated birth and I got my wish! Such an empowering experience! 

Do you have a favorite quote or slogan?
Your greatest contribution to the kingdom of God may not be something you do but someone you raise. -Andy Stanley (can you tell I’m a mom?!)
