Who Am I?

I am a small town girl who is pretty low maintenance and loves living in the country. Ok I feel like I am writing a dating site bio with that statement -lol I am a mom of a 5 year old boy and a stepmom to a 13 year old boy and no I do not have my sh** together -lol. I am one of those hotmess moms. I am constantly trying to find ways or solutions to help make my life easier. My house is only about clean for maybe 1 minute before my son decides he should empty out a box of toys all over the place. So if this is you too - know that you are not alone! I feel like a lot of moms only share the highlights of their lives and that in turn makes other moms feel like they are the only one who doesn't have their sh** together or the only one with a messy house. 

I deal with anxiety. I think many people have anxiety but do not realize that is what it is. I didn't realize anxiety is what I had till maybe 5 years ago. I find that crafting, focusing on gratitude and remembering that I am not in charge, that God is in charge helps me when my anxiety is high. 

I grew up an athlete and was always in shape, but that changed after I graduated college and moved out on my own. I gained 40 lbs, was insecure and lost my confidence. This led to me starting to workout on my own in my apartment building using a workout dvd. Once I started I never really stopped. I was a full time accountant at the time and found myself stressed with the job and wanting more out of life. I felt like I was meant for more. Have you ever felt like that? I have a passion for helping other moms find confidence and feel Amazing by getting them started or keeping them on a health and fitness journey. I have been able to turn that passion into a career. It has been an incredible blessing and that is what brings me here. 

I look forward to getting to know you and helping you with your health and fitness journey any way I can. You Got This Momma!

FAMILY

In 2016 I married the love of my life, Dan. We met when we were young kids as we lived a couple miles apart and were in the same 4-H club together. We decided to turn our friendship into something more in 2012. We married in 2016. We are complete opposites, but it works. 

In June 2018 we were blessed with a beautiful baby boy, Hudson. He is the light of my life. I tell him all the time that his hugs are magical because they have the power to make everything better. I have been very blessed to be able to stay home with Hudson and work my online health and fitness business in the mom cracks - the naps - before he wakes up - while he is playing and now while he is at school. 

So how did a simple, small town girl start an online health and fitness business? 

In September 2012, I was thinking about getting a part time job.  I had a full time accounting job, but wanted some extra spending money.  I really didn’t want to work weekends and have my time scheduled for me.  Because of this, so many part time jobs were off the table.  I was into fitness at the time and remembered my Slim In 6 DVD (workout program) talked about coaches.   I started looking into Beachbody Coaching. I had initial questions about this online opportunity as I had tried selling gigs before and was unsuccessful. Here were my initial questions. Maybe you have wondered the same things about Beachbody Coaching. 

I watched a youtube video of a girl who talked about Beachbody Coaching. She seemed like a very caring and down to earth girl who was successful as a Beachbody Coach. I contacted her and decided to give this Beachbody Coaching thing a try.

I signed up to make extra money, but I never dreamed Beachbody Coaching would open so many doors for me and allow dreams to come true. I have been able to quit my full time accountant job and now work from home as a Beachbody Coach. (Beachbody does not guarantee any level of success or income) I love being able to help others smile again. When someone says thank you because you helped them gain their confidence back and get into pre-pregnancy clothes it is a great feeling.  When a mom tells me she has the energy to play with her kids and is taking selfies with her kids, that right there makes my heart smile. Not only is a mom's life changed, but her kids' life is changed too because they now have a more confident, active and happier mom. That right there is what I want for all moms and it is my passion to help as many moms as possible live their best life.

Beachbody Coaching has improved my life in so many ways (not just financial). I can’t express how much coaching has done for me as a person. Before becoming a coach, I was a “negative Nancy.” I was very shy, lacked confidence, had no self love and I didn’t believe that my dreams were actually attainable. Now, I am a very positive person, I have confidence and I love who I am (I am uniquely me). I am also dreaming bigger and believe that with hard work they will come true. The opportunity has helped my mind, body and soul. I know that sounds cliche, but it is true.

I want everyone to feel amazing from the inside out. I coach so that others can feel amazing on the inside and shine on the outside.
