I started this whole “coaching” thing because of how much weight I lost from home after having kids.
I gained 60lbs with my first pregnancy and the thought of going back to the gym made me wanna puke. And this was a girl who LOVED her gym classes.
But nothing fit. And I was depressed. And I didn’t want to have to buy new clothes just to go back to work. And I didnt have a sitter. And I didn’t want anyone to see my everything bounce even though I just had a baby and should have embraced that fact that God used me as a miracle maker all over again.
So I pushed play every day. Got results and loved loved LOVED how many people were inspired by my journey and wanted to get started themselves.
Started recommending the workout programs I was doing and listening to story after story of how much weight people were losing, how much happier they were and how much they loved having the daily support and community of a coach.
Fast forward, 2 more babies later.
I have Corporate job that I absolutely love. And I’ve got 3 kids in day care with another on the way to day care so that I can be the “I love my job” corporate mom with 4 kids in day care, teaching 6 classes a week, wife, homework, diapers, meals and keeping up with a corporate job I love trying to pull it all together.
Then something happened. My world was turned upside down when my youngest child, my 2nd son was born too early. Born alive. Passing after only a day. And I am lost. Depressed. Anxious. Filled with anger. And regret. Questioning doctors,fitness & health. Crushed with the weight of depression.
Then came decisions. My calling is no longer to be behind a desk for 8 hours a day. It just can’t be.
This was in 2014. The same year that I was awarded $21,500 by Team Beachbody for my coaching and support helping a friend lose over 220lbs.
That same year my husband and I decided that we could afford for me to be home with our kids because of the amazing financial benefits of coaching besides the physical.
My journey allows me to mentor and coach others daily to a healthier and more successful life while taking care of me.
Can’t put a price tag on that.
