Learning my first martial arts moves at the age of 12 kick started my lifelong fascination/obsession with fitness and other related subjects. It got me interested in internal arts like Chi Kung and Yoga, but also in philosophy and ultimately lead to the need of exploring my full potential. As I was facing adversity in many different forms, I managed to become an expert in Progressive Calisthenics and that is what I use to train my clients. Along the way I've learned many important lessons, which I started sharing with people on my talks and workshops, so I can help improve lives, but also help build better future for all of us.

I was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer at age 7. I had to overcome the impossible. I went through extreme chemo treatments and an above the knee amputation. I was bullied and forgotten. At age 11 I was put into foster care to fend for myself. My biological parents didn't accept me for who I was after my amputation. I was beat, told I was worthless. I went through many self esteem struggles. I had to find worth and how to successfully be better than who I had become. Instead of believing that I was nothing I had to find something. I found that I was not alone. There are people all the world who just need to feel love and hope for their lives and futures. Kids die of cancer and as they wait for their final days no one has said the fight is in the mind. What the need is encouragement. That’s what I’m here to do.

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Phyllis Lawson https://www.facebook.com/LulaHorn1883/ https://authorcentral.amazon.com/gp/profile [email protected] Ms. Lawson was born in Detroit, Michigan. At the age of four, she was sent to the tiny town of Livingston, Alabama to be raised by her grandmother Lula Horn (1883-1986), who made beautiful quilts out of the clothing of her loved ones. Each strip of fabric tells the story of the wearer’s life and death. She shared these mostly tragic and sometimes witty tales with little Phyllis as she sewed their clothes into a quilt that threaded broken lives back together. Ms. Lawson now shares these profound stories with the world as Grandmother Lula told them to her. After graduating from High School, Ms. Lawson joined the United States Air Force as a WAF (Women’s Air Force) and was one of the first female B-52 mechanics. She served one tour in the Air Force and left the service in 1978. Following a seventeen-year break from military service, in 2002 Ms. Lawson returned to the military as a member of the U.S. Army National Guard and Active Duty Service, retiring from the U.S Army in 2013. During this period, she served as an Aviation Operations Specialist, Equal Opportunity Advisor and Instructor. Ms. Lawson was one of only a handful of women in the military who served in three major military conflicts including the Vietnam Era where she served three temporary duty assignments to Vietnam before the 1975 fall of Saigon. She was also deployed to Saudi Arabia as a member of Operation Desert Storm, and in December 2003 in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. She has received three military campaign medals for assignments where she served to support the United States Armed Services in armed conflict, including a U.S. Army Expeditionary, Global War on Terrorism and a host of other Army and Air Force medals for superior performance in the line of duty. After retiring from the military, Ms. Lawson spent the following two years writing her Memoir Quilt of Souls, released March 13, 2015. Since its release, this poignant memoir has garnered a great deal of buzz from social, print and television media. Quilt of Souls is consistently viral on Facebook. As a result of the popularity of her memoir, she has been interviewed and appeared in over 35 media outlets including internet blog talks, on-line newspapers, social media forums, television, radio and media advertisements. She has also been a guest speaker at over seventy venues to include, libraries, genealogical conventions, book clubs, colleges and secondary schools.
