Her Thoughts Led to Powerful Action

When Rosemary Robinson Jackson first walked through the gym doors, she sought a nudge in the right direction.

“I was contemplating getting in better condition,” she recalls, adding that a friend had made big strides recently and planted the seed: Why not me?

Before retirement, Rosemary was a medical records manager for a university’s student health services.

The job required structure, responsibility, and a strong work ethic—traits she now channels into her fitness journey. Though she considered herself “fairly fit” when she started, what’s shifted most isn’t her strength or flexibility (though those have improved too)—it’s her motivation.

“I’m more inspired to do other activities in my day,” she says, almost surprised at how this one choice created a ripple effect in her life.

Rosemary’s favorite part of her exercise routine isn’t a piece of equipment or a specific workout. It’s the freedom—the space to be where you are, to show up consistently, and to grow from there.

She has this simple advice for anyone feeling nervous about starting: “Trust your trainer and yourself.”

Then she leans in with a gentle reminder like wisdom: “Faith above fear. Believe you can, and you will. You will change your life for the better.”

If she had to wrap it all up in one word?

“Altering.”

It’s not dramatic or flashy. Real change is rooted in effort, faith, and a decision to show up.
