Never Forget...

Never forget you already have everything it takes to be happy, loved, successful, empowered and courageous. You won't find it around you though....it is and always has been WITHIN you. 🧡🧡🧡

Do I?

"Do I want to do this?...enough?"
"Am I worth it? I don't know if I have enough confidence in myself to do this..."
"What if I fail?" I don't want to let you down."

I hear those questions lingering in the minds of people who KNOW that being healthy is important....but those questions stop them. I know because it stopped me. I remember thinking 6 years ago..."I can't get a great workout at home!"..."ohhhh, no thanks this won't work for me...its one of those "online" things...."What if I don’t do well? Am I going to let people down?" "What if they judge me?" 

This mindset will continue your journey down a path of more doubts, more negativity and regret. I realized I did not want that for my life ANYMORE and everything changed when my WANT for change was greater than my WANT to stay the same. 

Fast forward a few years and now MOST of my workouts come from a program that I follow from START TO FINISH. I'm also doing this ONLINE thing making a full time income. I'm so glad I stopped listening to my doubts and I trusted that I COULD be successful at this. I'm healthier, happier and I found a tribe of people that keep me motivated to KEEP GOING. Huge Thanks to my fellow Coaches and fellow Virtual Fit-Clubbers!!! Ya'll changed my life 😍🙏😭💟😘

If you need support and a plan for success then reach out to me or a fellow Coach!!! It's no fun to "go it alone." . Trust me...I've tried that for too long. People need people to relate to the hard and to celebrate in the smallest and biggest successes. We ALL matter. Wanting more for your life is not selfish. It's a need that must be filled. Time will pass regardless, wouldn't you like to make it your BEST life possible? 💪😁

Reason to Be Happy

Just got back from a (mini) Coach Conference and it was one that left me in tears. We all had to think of a negative memory and think on those feelings of sadness, regret, anger...and well ...YEAAAHHH...that part sucked....

But then we took 3 minutes to think about 3 memories that made us sooooo grateful and in just a few minutes my mindset changed and I left so uplifted and grateful for my life. Our mindsets truly can change in the course of a few minutes so the next time you feel heart ache feel it and let yourself grieve...but if your heart aches for something from the past then it's time to let it go. Be grateful for what is NOW and also be grateful for that circumstance to shape and mold into who you are today. We all have stories of our childhood and past that we wish didn't happen but what if it happened FOR us so we could be the heroes today and ALSO help those like us? We might ask WHY ME? But what if instead we asked "HOW can I Overcome and HOW can I help others because of this? 

For example...I tend to look at the lack of connection I had growing up with people closest to me and how it's shaped me to be create my own fun and I also make sure everyone is felt loved and connected(whether they like it or not 😉😋) . And for that I'm SO SO thankful. I also look at marriage differently and because of my upbringing I make sure Eddie is loved by my words AND my actions. 

Everyone has a reason to be unhappy, but what are your reasons to be HAPPY? Why are you grateful for your life? And how can you show that gratefulness to everyone around you? Isn't it time to let go and forgive those that hurt you? Including forgiving and loving yourself? It might help to start a daily grateful list. I'm starting another gratitude journal this fall to help me stay accountable! If you think it will help ya too then I encourage you to do it too!!!! Hmmmmm, maybe a grateful group for my next free group?!?🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 Whatcha think?

New Program

On Friday we Flex. And yes YOU are my accountability to what’s about to come. So I want to say THANKS for helping me stay on track!!!! 🙏🙏🙏 here's to our healthiest Fall YET!!!!!

I'm diving into a new Program Monday and I always love the excitement that comes with a new challenge....yea, this is my lifestyle but it's still gets me excited to START strong and FINISH strong. I want to continue to Iead by example because if this college drop out, recovering emotional eater & scale abuser CAN over come the hard....then SO CAN YOU!!!!! We are more than a size...we are people who NEED love and acceptance and we won't accept it from ANYONE until we accept it from OUR SELF FIRST. So every day, wherever you are at.... Love who you are NOW and who you are becoming because babe. You have ALWAYS been worth loving and worth fighting for!!!😍😘😍🤩#fightforyourhealth #maketheshift#thesweatlifewithsarah #virtualfitclub#virtualbootcamp #sweatwithsarah

What's Your Sacrifice?

Do you know what you need to give up for a happier, healthier & more fulfilled life!? Most people know what they would have if they achieved their goals but they rarely think about the sacrifice it takes. So let's take a step back and realize the REAL PRICE...because I am all about keeping it real with ya. ✌😘

So you want better health!? What's your sacrifice?!??
✔TIME... to schedule your workouts and NOT give in to the snooze...because you stayed up late netflixing. Again. 
✔INVESTMENT...Are you willing to invest in your health or are you going to keep going it alone? 
✔RELATIONSHIPS....You have toxic people in your life. They are sabotaging your efforts and maybe even making you emotionally unwell so you turn to food for comfort. Time to distance yourself. 
✔FALSE BELIEFS.....You have blamed circumstances, people, genetics....even the weather for your lack of motivation. Aren't you willing to give up what you can't control for what you CAN CONTROL....YET?

Seems a bit harsh but honestly your health is THAT important, not only for you but also for your loved ones. It's time to write out your goals and share them with some POSITIVE people that will have your back. I'm not saying its gotta be me....heck you might not even like me 🤣 & that's 👌 But I'm telling you anyway 👉 DON'T WAIT TILL ITS TOO LATE. We either live a life of FEAR, a life of REGRET or a life of HAPPINESS. Either way....you get to decide YOUR FUTURE. Make it a happy one friend.💟💟💟

Looking forward to seeing you get your healthy on too!!!!!!!!#sweatwithsarah #thesweatlifewithsarah#virtualfitclub #virtualbootcamp

Friends

There are 3 types of friends in your life...
💁‍♀️Acquaintance friends
💁‍♀️Maintenance friends 
💁‍♀️Growth friends

Being a former people pleaser I used to try to please EVERYONE...encourage them...inspire them to be happier and live more fulfilled lives. I hit a wall and hit it HARD. They brought me down to their level. I complained more. I doubted myself more. I was frustrated and blamed others for my OWN failures. It sucked and I KNEW Something needed to change. 

I decided to reach out to those who inspired me. Who seemed to have it all but were still humble, happy and kind. I stopped my jealous and envious mindset and decided I wanted to GROW into the best version of me. And over the years I have changed. I have attracted people who also want growth and we have better lives because of it. 😊😋😊 No, it wont happen over night but if you are searching for a community of DREAMERS and DO-ERS I am going live sharing my story for those who want to hear it. I have a PRIVATE group to get an inside look of what this community is about. Check out the link in the comments below or message me to get access to it.😉

Remember, if you decide to spend the MOST Time with "GROWTH" friends then you are more likely to be happier, more successful and have a more fulfilled life. So choose wisely and avoid the drama...the negative...the self limiting beliefs of some of your current "friends". Life is too short. Live it happy, generate joy and make a REAL DIFFERENCE in this world!!!!✊✊✊#onlincoaches #happylife #bestlife #livingthedream#everyday

A Cleaner Lens

Too many times we try to control our situations which if we DON'T have control of and the outcome DOESN'T happen the way we want then we feel failure or we blame ourselves or others. Yea....a lose lose all around. 🤚🤚Whose got time for that!?!!!!?

In a world of uncontrollable situations I want you to know that you DO have control over YOUR mindset. Don't give away YOUR POWER to the bad times .Instead focus on what you CAN control and make your MINDSET MENTALLY STRONG So whatever you are faced with you KNOW it won't tear you down any longer. 

How do ya do that!?!?! Well energy is spent regardless so you MUST take away a bad habit to form a GOOD one. So what bad habit could you trade in for a good habit??? 
👌Gossip....trade in for a Gratitude journal.
👌Drama or a negative TV show trade in for a Personal development book (audio book counts too).
👌Confronting and not running from the HARD situation you have avoided so you can quicker move past it.
👌Instead of scrolling social media and comparing yourself to others "perfect" life write out your OWN affirmations daily before you go to bed. 
...maybe do ALL of those things? Your life is YOURS. Don't let other people or situations control it any longer. Happiness is all around. Search it out and create a mind that sees the world through a cleaner lens. 😘🙏 #wegotthis

Mine

Sorry doggies.....MY cookies. 😍🙌😍 I was feeling a tad guilty about these but in all honesty I'm having 3 and not 6...PLUS I had a huuuuge salad today and I'm going to drink my superfoods smoothie for dessert tonight. This is awesome for me because yes I struggle with food time to time but I don't punish myself with starvation or working out for hours anymore. I recognize that I sometimes give in but I no longer think I'm a failure because of it. I'm not perfect and that's OK.👌👌👌 Perfect is NOT the goal. Happy and Healthy is the goal. And it will always will be.

Bright Like A Diamond

I want women to know confidence shines from the inside out. Embrace your beauty by showing your kindness, sharing your laughter and your appreciation of life. EVERYDAY. Confidence shines brighter when you love yourself for who you are and you love others for who they are. Shine bright like a Diamond babe! 💞💎💎💎💟
