AHA moment #2...I wanna be a Team Beachbody Coach

It was December of 2010 when I had AHA moment number two.  I was at work running the self check out station (hating my life btw lol) when my friend Sean who worked in the garden center called me on my work phone.  He and I were talking about the company Beachbody and the coaching opportunities.  I was very hesitant at first but realized that it was a good opportunity to save 25% on my P90X program and Shakeology (The Healthiest Meal of the Day). So I told him I'd sign up as a coach with him just to enjoy the discounts.  I was slowly starting to become obsessed with health and fitness and thought why not kind of get into the industry.  I paid no attention to the business for a couple months and just enjoyed my coach discount, which was fine to me.  Then I start hearing about all the opportunities that came with being a Beachbody Coach and I was slowly finding myself feeling left out of all the fitness fun.  I wanted more and a lot more, so I started to get a little more involved.  I found myself immersed in all that was Beachbody and had the brilliant idea that I love helping others.  I always am the one that spends the time others rather than myself and pride myself on that.  I have always enjoyed helping others and helping them achieve mental health and clarity.  I am positive and happy nearly 100% of the time and I wanted others around me to have the same outlook on life.  Then I realized I could take me caring nature one step further and go to school to become a personal trainer.  I loved fitness, health and helping others...it seemed like the perfect combination.  I'd be crazy not to jump on this.  Thus started AHA moment #2.  I'm still in the process of finishing my certification and believe it or not, learning about the body wasn't really that hard.  I'm finding everything I'm learning so very fascinating...including the biology part of it all.  Now, I'll be able to help people in a more knowledgeable way.  It's one thing to be a Beachbody Coach but now I have smarts to back it up and prove that the programs work, I mean I did only lose 70lbs doing nothing but drinking Shakeology everyday and working out to my DVD's in my basement :) Now I only have to wait three more months before I have AHA moment number three.  Looking forward to sharing it with you tomorrow.

Peace. Love. Fitness.
