I recently read a book “Start with Why” and it got me thinking a little bit about my why, my purpose. For the longest time when people asked me what I liked to do for fun or as a hobby I felt like I rarely had an answer. I went to school, or work, or whatever else I was supposed to be doing at the time and never (in hindsight) never did anything for myself.
A little over 2 years ago now I had a friend ask me to join this online health and fitness accountability group. I was about 4 months postpartum and could not lose the last little bit of baby weight. Little did I know that decision would begin to change my life. It started off with intense workouts, post workout selfie’s, shakes, and a balanced meal plan. It turned into hosting my own online health and fitness groups as well as small in-person workouts. This July I will become certified to teach a live MMA inspired class. While I appreciate that some people can stay motivated and on track themselves, most of us need a little extra help. Now when people ask me what I do for fun I proudly say “I am a health and fitness coach”
So, why do I coach?
- I love when people send me pictures of their progress or how I’ve helped them stay on track.
- I love seeing people push themselves past their comfort zones.
- I love seeing the excitement around trying a healthy new meal.
- I love motivating others with my workout pictures….and to be totally honest the support I get by posting these help keep me motivated as well.
- My long term dream is to take this “hobby” and turn it into a career.
