The Results are In & Reflection...

It has been 2 weeks now since I completed a workout and meal plan program ALL THE WAY THROUGH. Now I wasn't perfect but I did make huge strides and noticable changes.

Self-control is one of my biggest obstacles and emotionally navigating a meal plan as EASY as it was laid out was still hard for me.

I feel this was a success and not because of weight but rather because of the mental and emotional shift that was made from getting up early and working out AT HOME versus at my YMCA in a group class.

I saw that I could do it and I gained confidence from this. I saw that the portion control once again really does MAKE A DIFFERENCE. I didn't crave certain foods and could feel when I was full and done.

I became more aware that motivation is not a natural occurrence and has be to be allowed by taking ACTION FIRST.

I lessened my weights because I don't own any 15 or 20 lb dumbbells and found that my muscles were fine and even thanked me.

All this to say, it works. My superfood shake works, the workout program works AND the meal plan blew me away!

I'd HIGHLY recommend it. I also loved coaching through it because it's ALL laid it out so there is no guessing work. If you are interested in this program, go HERE to check it out. AND if you want to dive in, click HERE to connect with the program details and what all is included.



AND here is the REAL DEAL...this is awesome, it really is but "everything is meaningless, a chasing after the wind" in comparison to building a relationship with God through Christ.

So I won't share with you quick fixes...that's down right wrong.

I want to share with you what is helping me and what can help you with overcoming emotional eating and stress eating. IT CAN BE DONE.

God's Mysterious Ways

A friend wrote to me: "I just realized how your coaching is a different, creative implementation of your training and background."

God sure has His Mysterious ways :: Master's in Social Work/Marriage & Family Therapy :: Runner History :: Artist Leaning I know my purpose...DO YOU?
I'm here for allowing myself to be vulnerable for God's glory through equipping and guiding others toward personal/relational growth, work/life balance and significance in Christ through utilizing CREATIVE methods - my purpose statement developed in Fall of 2013. Little did I know, it would turn into this...coaching and painting. I have taken the month of June off from painting to refocus on coaching and I am continually amazed to realize again & AGAIN how we live in SEASONS. Last year, I simply wanted to pursue a more purposeful crosstraining regime, lose a pant size that I had gained, FEEL better about myself...and cover the cost of my challenge pack with the 21 day Fix and Shakeology that I had put on a debit card.
That's it. I knew I wanted to help others in a more tangible way rather than in pursuing therapy with others. I knew that helping my muscles grow in different ways would help me to step out of my comfort zone too. I had and continue to have BIGGER dreams of helping to provide for my family and took the leap to stay home with my kids. I wanted results for myself and to help 3 people so I could cover the cost. Little did I know that a year later, I would have walked along so many people in their journeys towards health. I want to lead a strong team of MADE FOR MORE men and women, who are also on this health/fitness journey with me. TOGETHER. It takes working through the same programs and movement routines that have helped us get results, too. Now coaching isn't always glamorous. It's just doing little things every day that brings results...both personally and professionally if you want more out of it.
Are you looking for a way to get in GREAT shape? Do you want to help other people do the same? Do you simply need a way to cover the cost to get started? I will help you do all of those things.
The thing is, you are NEVER ALONE. My JOB is to help YOU be successful, too! This is why I am part of a TEAM that offers FREE sneak peeks into the business and FREE new coach training classes after you enroll. I want to give you all the tools you need for success! Are you ready to kick fear aside and start working on YOUR dreams for a change?
Here is the group created for the Coach Sneak Peeks and part of the Hope Nation team I am apart of: https://www.facebook.com/groups/517719598425818/ - you can watch the videos from previous sneak peeks and be updated on new ones.
