Do 30-minute home workout programs really work?

May 29, 2014

Beachbody before and after results
How many of you sit there & watch the informercials where you see ppl with these AMAZING results after doing a home workout & are like, "YEAH RIGHT?!!"  haha

Um...I DID!!!!  I literally thought they couldn't "real" until I saw an actual after-picture my coach posted last summer (with a six-pack after baby #3) that made me say, "WHOA!!!!!"  5 minutes later, I bought Insanity.  Lol.  

Pre-baby, I was a gym rat.  I worked out 4-6 days/week, 2 hrs/day.  Then I became a mom & with my 50 hr work schedule, my gym-time went OUT the window.  So I let myself go for almost 2 yrs...until I found these AWESOME, SHORT & EFFECTIVE home workout programs thanks to my coach!  And the rest is history!  

I can honestly say that NOW I am in the BEST shape of my life & this is AFTER I had a baby.  I would have never thought that was possible!  What's my secret?  NO SECRET!  

>>>I workout 30 minutes a day (at home)
>>>I drink Shakeology once a day
>>>And I follow Clean Eating (about 90% of the time)

My new BIG goal that I haven't shared with many people, until now...

May 28, 2014

Successful Top Elite Star Diamond Beachbody Coach
Today I had lunch with one of my amazing coaches, Gina Nocito Hutton, who is also one of the strongest, most inspiring women I've ever met. We talked about our "WHY's" and what keeps us going every day. We laughed, we cried, we shared ideas, and we DREAMED BIG as we said out loud what our goals are. 

The biggest blessing with Beachbody that most people are unaware of, is that it can open doors for you to be able to do BIG THINGS, beyond just health & fitness. I shared with Gina my BIG goal that I WILL achieve by the end of next year...

When I first started coaching, my #1 goal was to leave my full-time job & become a stay-at-home mom...something I never envisioned I'd want to be in a million years (bc I love to work & was always career-focused) but the instant I became a mom, I realized that was my calling! After just 7 months as a coach, I achieved that goal. I feel SO incredibly blessed, but now I know I need to DO MORE.

They say that your WHY should be so big that is makes you cry... Well, (many tears later) here it goes! Something I haven't shared with many people other than a few of my close friends, is my parents' situation...

About a year ago, my dad was making his plans to retire along side my mom. They had invested every penny they owned & were set up to be comfortable. My dad, who has been a roofer since he was a teenager, has worked approx 70-80 hrs/week since we were little (including nights, weekends & holidays), just to be able to provide for his family. He donates any extra money he has to the church and spends next to nothing on himself.

He was finally getting ready to hang up his tool belt, when they got a call from their investor that the investment project went south & they had lost everything. They were devasted, as so was I.... I had this pit in my stomach... My dad is 64 years old with a heart condition that after 2 heart procedures, has yet to be fixed. I'm terrified to think what will happen if he doesn't retire soon...

So, I made it MY GOAL to retire my dad by the end of next year.

And it WILL happen!  So when you hear Beachbody coaches talking about how you can make a 6-figure income within 2 years, it's not about "getting rich" and talking about making all this money, it's WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH IT that is truly LIFE-CHANGING. And we share that information bc what an amazing GIFT to be able to give that same opportunity to someone else! WHAT could you do for others or WHO could you help if you were able to financially? If you weren't held up working 50 hrs/week at your job?

I have no desire to be "rich", but I do have BIG DREAMS about how I am going to help others, help my family, make their lives more comfortable so they can retire & enjoy their golden years like they should. My parents gave me everything growing up & now it's time to return the love 

If you connected with my story in any way & want to change your life or do big things for your family, please don't hesitate to message me about Coaching! It can truly change your life if you let it! 

My biggest blessing & the reason I became a Coach....

May 24, 2014

What most people don't know about me, is that at what point, I wasn't sure I ever wanted to have children. I wasn't sure I'd be a "good mom" or if it was "cut out" for me... Then 3 years ago, we were blessed with the most incredible surprise  Since that day, I KNEW that I was MEANT to be a Mother. There is NOTHING that could ever bring me more joy or happiness than being a Mom. I love my daughter more than words could ever describe, she is EVERYTHING to me & she is the reason being everything I do. I KNEW from the moment she was born, that I was called to be a Mother. She is God's biggest blessing to me & the REASON I became a Coach...

After her 2nd birthday, I realized I needed to make my job as a Mother be my #1 job. I had been working over 50 hrs a week at my F/T Medical Sales job & was miserable. I was missing out on watching her grow up...I felt unfulfilled & was heartbroken. I then I decided that was NOT how I was going to live my life.

I was determined to CREATE the life I wanted, be home with my daughter, yet be able to still give her the world. I had no idea HOW that was going to happen. And since I could not financially afford to stay home, I PRAYED on it.

And in June of last summer, those prayers were answered. And that is when I became a coach 

And 3 months ago in January, my DREAM became a REALITY, when I left my F/T job to stay home with my daughter  And to this day, it gives me chills to now be able to write that out & not still be just wishing for it 

And I have to say that yesterday, was one of THE BEST days of my life.

We spent the ENTIRE day together...

NO phone, no computer, no TV...

We slept in, had breakfast together, snuggled, laughed & played all day, got manis & pedis, sang in the car at the top of our lungs, went out to lunch & dinner at her favorite spots & ate cake.

And in each little moment...I kept asking myself, "How did I get so lucky?"

I had a DREAM, I took a leap of FAITH, I WENT FOR IT, and I NEVER looked back.

I let go of any DOUBT & FEARS and decided I was going to LIFE MY LIFE BY DESIGN.

And the most beautiful part about it, is that this amazing gift & opportunity is POSSIBLE for EVERYONE!

Do YOU have similar dreams & goals as mine? Are you curious as to what I do? Message me & I'll be happy to share with you what I do as a coach, how you can be SUCCESSFUL, even earn a 6-figure income, working from HOME, part-time, on your OWN schedule & also create the life you want to live. Beachbody has blessed me beyond words & the greatest gift I can give is to pay it forward. You just need to take that first leap of faith & #dreamBIG!

DREAMING BIG!

May 15, 2014

My heart is SO full this morning with all of the congratulations I've been receiving this morning & while I'm really proud of my accomplishments, I also want to say that it didn't necessarily come "easy".

It all started a dream...a very BIG dream!  I had learned of what was possible with the opportunity that was before me & I decided to GO FOR IT.

I had to get rid of any DOUBT or FEAR that I had in myself, ignore those that maybe second-guessed this business, because after MUCH research, I KNEW the potential.  I KNEW this would be life-changing.  Not only would this help ME, MY FAMILY, but that I would have the ability to CHANGE hundreds of people's lives.

It took faith, lots of prayers, confidence, tons of DREAMING BIG, but most of all... the BELIEF that I could do it & that it was POSSIBLE.  

I saw others doing it successfully & I thought... "WHY NOT ME?  I was no different than them."


get up, dress up, show up, never give up

So I did what every successful person I studied did...

I GOT UP, DRESSED UP, SHOWED UP & NEVER GAVE UP.

And I did it EVERY SINGLE DAY.

I sacrificed sleep, my favorite TV shows, so many SMALL things I enjoyed.  Because I knew that giving up these things (temporarily) is a small priced to pay for long-term SUCCESS & FREEDOM...  Freedom to go where I want, do what I want, when I want, be able to leave my full-time job & stay home with my little one.  And THAT is truly PRICELESS.

One of the things that helped me get through so many things in life, was understanding that TIME would pass anyways.  So in one year, I could either sit on my a$$ & keep doing what I was doing... OR I could work my a$$ off & be able to live my dreams & give my family financial freedom.  I have BIG dreams & plans for my family, including being able to retire my dad from his physically-demaning, stressful job, which I'm on track to do within the next 2 years.  

And it's easy to get up every day & do what I do when it's something I am PASSIONATE about & LOVE to do.  I still have to PINCH myself that I get paid to help others better their lives working part-time from HOME, IN my sweat pants, with my little one by my side on the couch.  It's unreal!!!

If this has all inspired YOU & you have similar goals as mine, PLEASE do not hesitate to reach out to me!  Everything I have done to become successful, is completely duplicatable.  It's not hard, you just need to be consistent, driven & DREAM BIG!
