Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
My Testimonial
Hello my name is Michelle. I hope that in reading my blog not only will you get to know me better but that you will be encouraged to succeed at everything you do. My desire is to help others follow and achieve their dreams. So you might ask what made me want to do this?
First, I want to tell you that I grew up helping those around me all the time. It is one of my passions. I am not complete without social relationships. I went through school being part of teams, societies and being a friend to everyone. I was the “go-to” girl if you had a problem and needed a friend to listen and help you problem solve your situation. I hope that you find my blog helpful…
Over the last couple years, I have gotten married to my best friend & high school sweetheart, Michael. He is the most amazing man! He encourages me to be the best woman possible in every aspect and always believes in me. He is truly the partner God intended for my life. Married life is wonderful! We have grown through difficult times and have had fun through everything together.
While planning my wedding, I was going to college for my Bachelor’s of Science in Nursing. This is another one of my passions. Nursing is an art. To be able to be a caregiver in someones life is one of the most precious gifts. The human body is so intricate and it always amazes me how everything works together not by chance but for a reason. So I finished nursing school in May 2009 and graduated with my BSN!! But that’s not all that I was accomplishing while in school….
Michael & I decided we were going to add on to our family! I became pregnant in the Fall of 2008! I finished doing full time nursing clinicals for school, working a job in the hospital, being a wife and graduated nursing school being 8 months pregnant!
Our daughter was born in June 2009! She is the pride and joy of our family! Her arrival has brought our family even closer than before. Children are truly a blessing from God. So being a stay at home mom, my next step after graduating nursing school was to prepare for the NCLEX test to obtain my Registered Nurse License. This was the toughest test I have ever taken! Oh My Goodness! I didn’t believe I PASSED but I DID! :)
Michael and I decided he would continue to work while I stayed at home with our daughter. I love being at home with her! Every growth milestone is cherished and well-celebrated!
So, as our daughter became older I started attending workout classes at the gym. I fell in love with TURBO! I have been attending it since! I have always had a passion for health and fitness! I have always battled with my weight and desired to be healthier. Growing up I seemed to always be involved with some type of team sport whether it be swimming, volleyball, basketball or softball. I made a new goal for myself after I had my daughter. I was going to be a healthy role model for her. I was going to be the mom who participated in running, jumping and playing all the time outside.
This is where my real journey begins to my new beginning. I stumbled across Beachbody Coaching opportunity through my TURBOKICK instructor at the gym. My instructor ranted and raved about how she was financially stable, had more time for her family and was attaining all her health and fitness goals. So, I had to check it out! I fell in love with the opportunity to be a coach. Coaching was to include motivating an d helping others to achieve their fitness/ health goals! It involved networking with positive people who would help support you in your journey. They give you nutrition support, fitness support and social support. Beachbody is truly the whole package to a ‘HEALTHIER LIFESTYLE’.
Our society is so overweight….something needs to be done. There is something wrong in society when you hear that you may possibly out-live your children due to childhood obesity! This is my way to help the world by encouraging one person at a time to be healthy inside and out.
Becoming a Beachbody Coach means something different for everyone. You have to know your “WHY” before you can set your goals. As stated above these are my passions that support my “WHY”. I will achieve my goals because I believe in myself.
If you are ready to start a new chapter in your life and desire to be passionate about everything you do.. Please continue to read! :)
