My journey toward a healthier lifestyle began back in high school, simply out of curiosity. I started learning about different foods and their benefits, experimenting with recipes, and very quickly noticed that I felt better — both physically and mentally. I was lucky to have the support of my family, so many of my habits naturally became part of our everyday routine.

Even though I was never really a “sporty type,” physical activity has always been part of my day. Over time, I realized how important it is to nurture both body and mind — through movement, but also through balanced nutrition.

Today, I live by the 80/20 principle — most of the time I choose healthier options, but I always leave room for small pleasures. I never skip breakfast, I drink a glass of warm water every morning, and I try to sleep seven to eight hours. I practice Pilates three times a week, and every day I walk between seven and ten thousand steps. I never keep regular sweets at home, but I always have healthier alternatives — fruit or homemade raw desserts.





Healthy habits help me stay focused, stable, and energized throughout the day. Spending time in nature calms my mind and restores my balance. I recently took part in the Serbia Business Run for the first time. Although running wasn’t my first choice in the past, I decided to step outside my comfort zone — and I managed to break my personal record. That feeling reminded me how much we can achieve when we simply give ourselves a chance.

I often hear people say that “healthy means tasteless,” but I love proving the opposite — showing that you can live healthily and enjoy every bite. It means a lot to me when someone finds inspiration in my story, because it reminds me that small, personal changes can have a big impact on others as well.

For everyone who feels they “don’t have time” for themselves, I have one simple piece of advice — start with small steps. Create your own seven-day mini challenge: more water, more steps, better meal choices. After just a week, you’ll feel the difference — and you’ll know you’re on the right path.
