This is ME

Helping myself and inspiring others become stronger each day!

My journey started because I wanted to be healthy and live longer.

Now, it is more about LIVING!!!.

YOU are stronger than you realize!

Through time, I have found that the only limitations we have are the ones we put on ourselves.

Live life by DESIGN... not by default.

I have found my purpose and passion! That is continuously learning and then showing others how to become the best versions of themselves.!

It is never too late start, or REstart

Gotta start somewhere.
Even if it means RESTARTING.
Even if it means slow progress, and no matter how hard it seems, it means NOT giving up!
_________
In 2011 I lost 50 pounds.
In 2013 I lost another 23 pounds, making my weightloss over 70 pounds with diet, exercise and awesome accountability! Sounds all great and dandy, but something happened in me and it SCARED the heck out of me!
_________
It seemed that I forgot where I had been and I forgot the struggle of being obese. I became judmental toward others that weren't ready to lose weight. I found myself becoming annoyed, frustrated, and upset toward people that wanted my help yet weren't ready to put in the work that was easy to do but is also easy NOT to do. I NEEDED some serious HUMILITY and didn't know at the time what had happened to get me to that point.
_________
In 2014, I quit.
I stopped exercising and I stopped watching what I ate. I gained weight back. I attempted getting back on track on my own without the tools or accountability. That didn't work. I tried blaming other people and other sources, and wondered where I had gone wrong. I played the victim. It took me almost 4 years to realize it wasn't anyone else.
It was ME.
I needed to swallow my pride and admit that I am NO better than anyone else. Do I regret giving up? Kinda. But I realized I needed to experience it to gain my humility back. I learned that I have NO right to judge and I have NO place in thinking I know people and their intentions.
_________
In 2018, I swallowed that difficult pill. I admit I was wrong. I needed that experience to learn the greatest lesson of humility I have ever learned. I have several friends that have restarted with me and they are afraid to send me their before pics for accountability. To that, I say don't be afraid! You gotta start somewhere and I am NOT lying when I say I HAVE BEEN THERE. TWICE. And this time I have the accountability, experience, knowledge AND heart to stick to it and help thousands of people! Are YOU one of them? I'd love to help when you are ready ♡♡♡

Greater


I have come to realize that this life is what we make of it. Doubt and fear can keep us from truly making a difference. It is difficult to dream in a world full of dream-crushers. It is scary to set big goals that push you outside of that comfort zone. I GET IT ♡❤♡ I have been there! I used to speak in front of large groups and would get countless messages thanking me for being an inspiration and positive influence for others. But along with that comes negativity, negative messages, and the self doubt and fear creep in. I have experienced that fear and I let it overcome me and I actually stopped setting goals and I stopped reaching out to others because I thought I was doing THEM a favor! Now several years later feeling like I am starting over... nothing changed since I stopped and I really was not much better off, and worst of all---I have not made much difference in the lives of others by staying silent! I felt hopeless and lost... UNTIL THIS YEAR!

That spark has been RELIT 🔥 The desire to help others and make a positive difference NO MATTER WHAT negativity may come my way. I have already begun to change myself for the better! 20 pounds down so far and goals set so high they scare me! But I have a team of amazing people to stand with me! I have so many that have my back and I know that no matter what I may face, I am NEVER ALONE!! 🌟Seeing others believe in themselves and their potential is what fires me up! Being able to help others set and crush their own goals is one of the greatest most indescribable feelings in the world!

Message me YOUR goals and maybe I can help you relight that fire and desire within to do something greater than you ever imagined! Together we are better! ♡♡♡ #BeGreater #dreambigger #crushgoals
