Eat, Pray, Love

What a crazy last few months! I just got back from Europe and OMG what a fantastic ride... We went back to France but this time instead of staying in the city of Paris we stayed just outside the city in Chatou, a quaint beautiful neighborhood. We did a lot of sight seeing and walking tours and revisited some of our favorite places. The we went to Istanbul, Turkiye for a few days and all I can say is this is one of the most unique places I have ever been. The history, architecture, Mosque, food, culture, textiles, bakeries, spice bazarrs, boats... I could go on and on. We had a blast in Turkiye waking up early and going all day until the wee hours of the night trying not to miss a beat. I am so grateful and blessed to have had the opportunity to see such a unique country. I can't even wrap my mind around how old this place is and the museums, palaces, mosque, all built hundreds and hundreds  of years ago... I can say that when our time was up in Europe I was quite saddened to come back to the states. There is so much out there and people always say this is a small world but really.... It's bigger than I can grasp. How can so many people not have a clue about other countries, cultures, religions, languages, taste and so on? I can say I know I will revisit Turkiye again I just know it. Some day some how....

WHATS THE DEALIO

Hello Bloggers,


It's been quite a while since I have posted a blog. I guess life has happened and I haven't taken the time to write too many blogs. A lot has happened in the past few months.. I became the business manager and makeup artist for Smashbox Cosmetics... what a fun ride that was. I learned a lot... I learned the ins and outs of numbers, goals, sales, artistry, direction, ordering, commanding, mingling, regulars, etc... What I learned about myself is that I can take control and step up. This was a rewarding job yet it took it's toll. There was a lot of pressure, I would sleep, eat, and breathe numbers and goals and events and so on. I never had a weekend off and was just completely drained... I ended up leaving this exciting company and am now working for Weight and Body Solutions. Something that is right up my alley... so far so good :) I am looking forward to a fun exciting year coming up... Lots and lots of plans. I'll keep ya posted. Tootles.

Here are some photos from the past few months.. enjoy!

Controlled Chaos

Don't let these faces fool you. I wish I had a camera in my house to show what goes on while I am not there. The lab Dakota is the sneakiest dog of all time. She is never allowed on the coach, the bed, or any furniture. Yet every single day when I leave the house she jumps on the bed and sleeps on it alllll day. Never fail when I come home I go in the room and feel the bed and its warm from her body. There is an inprint of where she sleeps every day. The thing is she knows better, as soon as I say DAKOTA and point to the bed, her head goes down and she hides. Silly dogs.
Now for the little one... Gracey! She is my everything. She is my oldest girl and my blessed jewel. She doesn't do anything wrong. What a complete angel. When she was younger she chewed through a few of my shoes and swimsuits, but nothing major. What I would give to see what these two monsters really do all day.
Dakota: Thanks for keeping the bed warm for me...
Gracey: Thanks for keeping my slippers warm for me....

A little PEP

Hello Blog world!


Do you find yourself looking in the mirror and criticizing yourself constantly? Either you are too short, too big, too small, wish you looked like her or him, not good enough! Well I am telling you now to stop! Stop criticizing yourself. If you do not want others to criticize you then do not do it to yourself. There are so many people who are consumed with trying to live up to a certain image and they forget to live for themselves. When the day comes that you look in the mirror and are proud and satisfied for what you have, you will live a whole different life and have a whole different attitude. If you are over weight or unhappy about something then change it. You only live once and only have one body, so make it the best it can be and be HAPPY!

Halloween

Happy Halloween Everyone!

Hope everyone has a safe and fun Halloween. I went to a great Halloween party over the weeekend and had a great time with all my favorite people and some of my best friends! After Halloween, it's back to the healthy diet and no more candy. I'm not sure if my shakeology mixed with all my favorite candy has done me any good? At least I'm getting my vitamins :o)

I CHALLENGE YOU!

Hello Everyone!


I am getting ready to start another challenge group. This group will consist of 5 people. ... All working out, STARTING ON THE SAME DAY...THEY WOULD ALL BE REPLACING ONE MEAL A DAY WITH SHAKEOLOGY (& yes, if you do not have Shakeology, that would mean you would have to be willing to invest in it... because if I am going to invest my time in working with you one on one... I need to know that you are willing to invest in your own health first!)
 The challenge is the Shakeology HD Challenge.
It is simple- Replace one meal each day with a shakeology, workout 3 times a week to the 2 included shakeology videos and check in daily with me on your progress.


The key is success is consistency, proper nutrition & accountability! This isn’t about being perfect- it’s about learning how to live your best life! If diet/nutrition is something you struggle with, the Team Beachbody Club Membership is PERFECT for you. It customizes a meal plan for you based on your body, workouts and preferences and allows you to print out a grocery list. It’s almost too easy!


If you have not already, you will need to officially sign up to have me as your coach by going to : www.teambeachbody.com/mylittlefitclub and click join and register for your free account. You will also order your shakeology HD hrere under shop.


Together the 6 of us would begin our 30 day journey.


This IS a commitment.. ON MY PART and YOURS... Hence why I said that the people selected would NEED TO BE READY to SERIOUSLY change their lives! But I do believe it could be something that will not only make me a better coach for having gone through it... but will leave 5 people COMPLETELY TRANSFORMED at the end!!


If you would like to be considered and are willing to make ALL the commitments abov, then... what are you waiting for??? Write me back,  RIGHT NOW and tell me that you want in this group!!!


This challenge will start Monday November 14th.
I look forward to another great challenge!!

Coaching Opportunities

If I told you that you could change your life, starting right now, make more money and get into great shape, all while reaching out to others to help them do the same, is there any reason under the sun you wouldn't do it? That's essentially what you do, in a nutshell, when you sign on as an Independent Team Beachbody Coach. You immediately have the support of your upline sponsor, your coach, who will help you, along with the support from Team Beachbody, to build a business to a level that will eventually allow you, if you chose to do so, make that your full-time job. You can start building your business while still working at your current full-time job, or as a full-time student, or whatever else you have going on in your life that takes up the majority of your time.

If you are looking for something to take you out of the nine to five grind every day, or a way to find more time to spend with your family or on what you enjoy in life, or a way to make a wonderful income, then I'm telling you, if you don't at least check out the possibilities, you'll never know what you might have been able to do. What possible harm is there in taking a look at this business? If you decide, "Hey, that's not for me," then at least you'll be making an informed decision.

 How you can make money with this industry:

Beachbody is a company that sells WELL known fitness products, supplements, and fitness supplies. they sell programs such as P90X, INSANITY, Brazil Butt Lift, Hip Hop Abs, etc. Until recently, this was all Beachbody was, then they released Beachbody Revolution.

Beachbody Revolution is a program the company created to get you in on their profits. What you can do is become a coach. A coach educates people on how to get healthy and start their own Beachbody business. One unique thing about Beachbody is that you lose weight and get fit while you make money. Usually, it is the other way around and you spend a TON of money while trying to lose weight.

What is involved with being a Coach?

Coaching for Team Beachbody can be a fun and rewarding experience. Once you sign up you can immediately start learning what to do. As soon as you register you will have access to all kinds of training videos and one-on-one training from your sponsor coach. Your sponser coach is the coach you sign up under and is the one who will help you get started and answer any questions you may have. The next step is to get coaches of your own.

This is another great part about Beachbody, they not only give you all sorts of marketing tools but they spend millions of dollars every year on advertising. People all over the country see Beachbody infomercials every day. The other great part is that they have well known successful products which already have GREAT reputations.

What do "Coaches" do?

1) Commit to a fitness and nutrition program (at 25% discount)

2) Keep track of my progress and share it with others

3) Get others to join me and hold each other accountable

4) Sign them up as coaches so they can spread the news just as I have done

5) Help my personally sponsored coaches build their business

How do I make money with this?

Once you become a coach, you should immediately start learning the ropes of Beachbody. When you figure it all out you begin telling you story, "planting your seed," and marketing yourself and your products. Start spreading the word throughout your own circle of family and friends and eventually expanding it through the internet.

1) Commission: Getting someone started on their weight loss journey, through a Beachbody product and/or supplement

2) Recruiting: Get others to join your team and help people fight obesity (in HUGE numbers it pays off... physically and financially). The way to make the most money is by getting active coaches under you. In order to become and remain an active coach, you have to have at least 50 PV (Personal Volume: personal purchase points) in one month. After you recruit two personally sponsored coaches underneath you, you become an Emerald coach and Beachbody will begin sending you "leads" or customers. The customers will then buy Beachbody products through you personal site and you earn a commission off of the sale. The two coaches you have under you will also start recruiting coaches under them and so on. This makes your potential to earn money almost infinite. The best part is, every single purchase made by a customer or coach under you will send the profits trickling back up to you. This means that you will get a commission on every single sale by you or by a coach sponsored under you.

3) Bonuses: Help your team become successful, makes you successful and Beachbody rewards you for this!

Questions and Answers

Q: "I'm not quite at my weight goal yet. I'll consider coaching once I'm in shape”

A: Start now! You're in the same shoes as your potential customers. The only difference is that you are proactive. They can relate to someone who is “not quite there yet” vs. the intimidating buff guy.

Q: "I hate to sell. I'm not much of a people-person.”

A: Begging people to buy things that they could do without is selling. Coaches don't sell... we recommend what has worked for us, just like you recommended the newest hair product or movie to your friends. Shakeology is awesome!

Q: "I don't have time to start a business”

A:Too busy... sorry that excuse has already been taken. Top coach, Traci Morrow, is a mother of SIX.

 As a coach, you are your own boss. You promote when you want, or not at all. Now of course, the more time you put in, the faster your business will grow. Another way that I 'work', is keeping Shakeology samples/pamphlets on me... you never know when you'll run into someone who randomly mentions that they are trying to eat clean. 

Q: How do I become a coach myself?

A: All you have to do is click on this link: http://www.teambeachbody.com/mylittlefitclub

Q: How much does it cost to become a coach?

A: There is an initial $39.95 fee and then a monthly charge of $14.95 for your back office. The back office is a website that Beachbody provides for you that keeps track of your sales, team sales, customers, commissions, as well as some training, sales tools, and much more.

Q: How much time do I have to dedicate in order to be a coach?

A: The amount of time you spend is completely up to you! The growth of your business is dependent on how much time and love you put into it.

Q: Is the Beachbody Coaching Opportunity a scam?

A:  No, the Beachbody Coaching Opportunity is not a scam. Before I decided to become a coach, I did A LOT of research. I made sure that what I was doing was obtainable and easy to understand. I made sure I would benefit from it as well as benefit those around me.  

Q: What are some of the benefits of becoming an Independent Beachbody Coach?

(As a note of comparison: the retail price of P90X is $119.85 plus S&H, and for just $80 more, you can have 5 more programs!)

Q: Do I have to have a great transformation to be a coach?

A: No! You have to have a passion for helping others and the desire to succeed. The earlier you start, the better. Others can watch your transformation and they will appreciate seeing all of your struggles and SUCCESSES!! 

Q: What if I’m not very knowledgable about fitness?

A: You don’t have to be a fitness expert to be a coach. I wasn’t when I first started. After becomming a coach you learn everything quickly.

Q: Will I get the proper training?

A: Beachbody has an excellent training program called the Game Plan, which you will need to understand when you sign up to coach. Also me as your upline coach will guide you every step and answer any questions.

Q: Is the Coaching Opportunity open to anyone outside the US?

A: Currently, the Coaching Business is not available to anyone outside the US. However, Beachbody is in the process of opening up the opportunity to other countries, such as Canada.
