Come Closer...
I've got a secret to share with you.
You, my friend, are far more powerful than you give yourself credit for.
By all outward appearances you’ve got it going on: you’re smart, you wear your busy like a badge of honor, and you’re successful by anyone’s standards.
But…
On the inside you’re frustrated, overwhelmed, and damn exhausted living a life that doesn’t feel like you.
There is one question that plays over and over in your mind...
If I’m so smart and successful, why the hell can't I figure this out on my own?
You are so done playing by everyone else’s rules, you want to make your own now.
And you are so done with settling. There has to be a better way to getting what YOU want, and to living a life that you truly love!
You want to be Set for life and know that deep inside, you have the power to create a life that lights you up.
I have another secret to share with you...
I haven’t always been Confident, Wealthy, and Fit. Or living my absolute dream life - traveling and living in different locations all over the world. In fact, the first 27 years of my life looked very different than it does today.
- I was raised by a single mother who got pregnant when she was 17
- I grew up on public assistance, sometimes sitting in the dark because the electric bill wasn’t paid
- I watched my single mother live paycheck-to-paycheck, cigarette to cigarette, frustrated and unfulfilled...a fun-loving woman, but one who had no understanding of how she could control and change her destiny
- I ate a steady diet of junk food, was often sick and had no awareness or knowledge of how much lifestyle choices affected my health and identity
- I lacked self-confidence and battled destructive lifestyle habits for years
- I had no role models or examples of what it meant to live in abundance and health, or to actually change myself from the inside out
- I had no one to teach me how to Manifest a new reality
So...I taught myself.
I’ve developed a method that has transformed every important aspect of my life...from health to money to career to manifesting my soulmate in two days to creating my absolute dream life, and becoming the best version of myself possible.
I've taught hundreds of others how to do the same!
My personal journey into self improvement and high performance living began with my own health transformation, and the realization that I didn't have to repeat the destructive habits I grew up with, or end up with type 2 diabetes like my grandparents.
At 19, as a college freshman, I felt uncomfortable in my skin and desperately wanted to look like the fit and vibrant girls on campus. You know the ones: belly shirts, toned midriffs, yoga mat strapped to their back, drinking something bright green and healthy, and looking for all the world like their life was perfect!
Because I had no health mentor or role models to speak of, these fit girls, complete strangers, became my first source of inspiration and motivation.
I said to myself, "If they can do it, I can do it."
From a desire came a vision, and then a decision.
I decided in that moment that I would begin to take better care of myself. Even though it began with a desire to look better, I now know that what I was really craving was ownership over my body and my future.
I didn’t know what I was going to do exactly; I just knew I needed to do something. And so I began.
I decided that I would not be satisfied with average or doing what so many around me were doing with their health (and their life)...settling! I didn't want to keep going through the motions, repeating the same cycle, simply because it was “normal” or expected. I was sick of just coasting along, letting life happen to me.
I was determined that I would make life happen for me.
So I began listening to the voice inside, that soft knowing whisper guiding me to just believe I could.
And so I jumped in feet first, not knowing where I would land!
Where I landed was my local gym. I immersed myself in fitness and better eating habits, and earned my first personal training certification before I turned 20.
I didn't know it then, but that decision to simply begin... would eventually turn into a decade long career in fitness that enriched my life in so many ways.
This health & fitness journey led to an amazing side-effect discovery that I hadn’t previously known about myself...I had a natural ability to teach others how to change their thought patterns in a way that made sense for them and got them life-changing results.
Has it all been perfect? Absolutely not!
At one point, even after I’d learned so much about self-care, I slid back into habits that didn’t serve me. Going through the motions, feeling like a lost version of myself, and falling back on other people’s expectations of what my life should look like...
I began to push my dreams aside, and pursue more "realistic" goals instead.
Who was I to be a dreamer?
Who was I to do better than those around me?
So I put my head down, waitressed my way through college, and moved on to a nice cushy corporate gig.
But that decision made me feel dead inside!
And so I did what most people do who aren't pursuing their soul's purpose -- I started to self-destruct.
I stopped exercising regularly, I started staying out late at night...drinking too much, sleeping too little, eating bar food, and wasting time in places (and with people) that made me feel even more dead inside.
That guiding whisper from earlier? I’d drowned it out with noise and distractions.
And then it happened.
My mom was killed in a car accident.
She was 45. I was 27.
I got the message loud and clear.
Life is now.
If I wanted to make a change...if I wanted to live a life that I was proud of, that honored my deepest desires, and that lit me up with excitement, then I had to do it now! Because there is no tomorrow.
The voice kept saying...life is now.
Within a few months of my mom's death, I quit my well-paying corporate gig to pursue my dreams of entrepreneurship, by becoming a licensed massage therapist and starting my first business.
As my passion for health and personal development deepened, I’d go on to become a multi-certified fitness and nutrition coach, a four time business owner, a success coach for a Fortune 500 company, a trained Life Coach under Tony Robbins, and now a mentor and leader for entrepreneurs and coaches all over the world, a speaker, and most recently as new IFBB professional athlete, at the age of 43.
Today, I'm living the life I REALLY want to live!
The day my mom died I said, "Enough!" I was determined not to die doing a job I hated, in a relationship that was sub par, surrounded by people who didn't enrich my life, and repeating habits that harmed my body and my spirit.
I realized that all along I had been avoiding fully committing to my what I really wanted, because I knew that if I declared it out loud, it meant no more bullshit excuses.
I knew it meant I would have to hold myself to a higher standard, and that I could no longer hide behind my potential.
Instead of waiting until I had all the answers or for the perfect timing, or until I had more of that or was less like this... I just had to begin from where I was. And so I did.
Isn't It Time For You To Create the life you REALLY want to live?
