My Tunes!
INSTRUCTORS! I need ur advice!!!! πππ(Also, Pardon the cray hair) so after about a decade my lil nano has kicked the bucket.π
I'm thinking about switching to another ipod I have (Thanks Rebeca and Todd for the back upsπ).... but I'm also considering using my ipad so I can connect to Spotify...But does the ZIN APP, play spotify songs?! Or Should I just stick to itunes!?
I can't use my phone bc I record with it....so my android is out. And I REALLY want to be able to crossfade songs, which this old nano could do!!!! Any apps to crossfade songs that you guys use, and do you use spotify, itunes or ZIN APP(Zumba instructors know what I'm talking about) !?!?
Sorry alot of questions. Just curious to see what's the best way to go about this! TIA. πππ

Guilt Free!
Do you know the difference between guilt free treats and shameful cheats!?!!? Because Bingeing and Emotional eating will always carry regret, embarrassment and feelings of unworthiness but having a guilt free treat is only enjoyable when you DON'T have those issues. Because guys, I get it! And NO being healthy means you don't have to give up certain foods!
TRUE STORY....ππΌππΌππΌ
Eddie and I went on a Doritos and Reese's run last night....
Yes, I have cravings too and every so often I go for it. π€·π½ββοΈ #reallife But that doesnβt mean I'm not healthy. Ya see that's part of that "20% treats". Today I'm back to getting my gut the nutrients it needs but that wasn't what I would have done in my 20's. Ya see I would weigh myself and if I went over a number then my solution was to starve myself for a day or 2 JUST to make that number go down. I had a very unhealthy relationship with my body and also how I viewed food. I abused my body with over-training and starvation.....Maybe I LOOKED healthy on the outside but the inside was a mess!!!!!!
Five years ago I confronted those issues with a program that helped put me back in control and to be honest the reason I can get back on track is simple. I have the tools now. & this $3.88 superfoods smoothie I make almost everyday is freaking the best investment I've made with my nutrition.
I had finally come to the realization that I couldnβt keep using excuses like "that's too expensive, or "I just don't care because I LOOK fit, that's healthy right?!" or "I'm not jumping on the shake bandwagon, they are just trying to sell me something that doesn't work." .... When I stopped the excuses I had a clear enough mind to find the results and the self love I SO DESPERATELY needed!!!!!
So how bout it!? You don't have to be extreme if you want to live a healthier life, but you need some tools to get you there. Fill out my Virtual Health Club application.
Let's talk about healing your body from the inside out. Because YES your health is important and so is overcoming emotional/binge eating. #igotyoubabe ππ―
Quirky. Cewl. Hilarious.
I've stepped up the selfie game in case you need to be reminded that I'm a dork and I miss the straw....quite often.ππΌ
And also since were on the subject of embracing this cewlness...... I'd like to know something about YOU that's quirky, cewl, hilarious, happy, strange...anything. let's #embracetheweird
Annnnnd, here's a few of mine.....
1 I'm a college drop out..although I did well in Dance For Sport and Kinesiology....so with that I kinda knew I wanted to get into the Zumba fitness craze ππΌ
2 I'm super competitive at lazer tag. Like a lot.
3 I'm wayyyy into personal development books (audiobooks only because this girl ain't read wordz goodπ€£π€·π½ββοΈ)
4 I also love me some video games for when I need to unplug. #borderlands #legodimensions #gearsofwar #spiderman
5 I love to choreograph music with movement (dance, strength, core, all of it) I'm sure you know that by now.
6 I don't really swear, unless it's for comedic purposes. One summer at basketball camp in 6th grade I had a night of swearing and it was hilarious until one girl started crying and I felt SUPER bad about it, so I swore off swearing. And fyi, I'm more than ok when other people do. Seriously I'm not offended!! π€£
7 I love Jesus and God and ALL people so if your beliefs aren't nice to certain races or sexes or sexual preferences then sorry buuuut we probably shouldn't follow each other π€·π½ββοΈ#notsorry
8 I would run a marathon only if I could Roller Blade it. If you know of this type of race please keep me informed.
9 I'm a coffee snob. Sorry but only Square One Coffee will be my bae foreva and evaaaaaa π
10 I'm pretty proud of who I am and where I am in life and I'm finally ok with knowing I'm not here to be everyones friend. I've finally let go of that people pleasing past self. So if you're still here. Thanks. And if not, thats ok too. πππΌ
I Think...
What kind of life would you be living if you started thinking about things going right, MORE than things going wrong?
I think you might start to appreciate life more.
I think you might start treating yourself better.
I think you might start treating others better.
I think you might gain that confidence you wished you had.
I think you might be able to start and FINISH that goal.
I think you might be happier and healthier.
I think you would find your purpose and pursue it FULLY and unapologetically.
It's never to late to start living the RIGHT way guys. I'm still learning and so so grateful to see this beautiful life as a gift. Because it is. π
Believe to Achieve
πYou have to BELIEVE it, before you can ACHIEVE it.π
So ask yourself...."Do I BELIEVE in myself enough to show up even when I don't feel like it?!?!!" "Do I see myself hitting this specific goal?" "Do I understand that there will be hurdles along the way & do I have the stamina it takes to keep going?!" "Am I doing this for me or the naysayers?" "Am I going to let the negative opinions of others stop me?" "Is my life important enough to me to make this change?" "Do I want this change MORE than I want to stay the same?"
Those were the questions I asked myself before I took my health seriously and got into this business and for realz guys, I was scared beyond belief but one thing stuck out to me ....
You have to BELIEVE it to ACHIEVE it. And I BELIEVED I had the tools before me, I just needed to BELIEVE IN MYSELF.
I'm not saying you have to FEEL ready, I'm saying do you see yourself as achieving your goals or are you not even believing that it's even possible!?!?! Because the difference between people getting this ish done and those that have the same tools but end up quitting is BELIEVING they can do it...and THAT'S IT!
So before you up and buy the new Bowflex, sign up for the gym, go all in with this relationship, join my next challenge group or biz training you MUST ask yourself..... "Do I BELIEVE I can do this?" And f you don't see yourself hitting those goals then STOP. RIGHT.NOW. Dive into some personal development because your mind is the muscle that needs to be worked EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.
And those that have that little bit of belief....then what the FLIP are you waiting for!?!?!!?? Get after it!!!! Do you want to look back and think "what if...?!? If its the right thing you must have COURAGE to step outside your comfort zone. #yougotthis
Late-Night Art
When's the last time you stayed up too late creating something fun?!?! Anybody else find creativity at night!?!? I usually do with choreography but felt like painting tonight!!!!!
Today was so fun and after walking around the cute little town of Roanoke and being inspired by art work I told Eddie we need to try to make art together. Turns out we aren't too bad (in my opinion anywayπ€·π½ββοΈ). After a trip to Hobby Lobby we came back to the hotel with 24 acrylics, 10 paintbrushes and 5 canvases. π€£ Eddie already sketched out all 5 ideas we decided on and we went to work. I'm showing ya our 2nd artwork..... Because the other isn't IG worthyπ€£ Well it was good practice to say the least.
Hope your weekend has been fun too! Never forget you are never too old to try new things...or try things you think you suck at, because you might surprise yourself. π
The Dream Inside You
God wouldn't have put the dream inside of you if He didn't think you could handle it.
Courage is God talking.
Fear is Satan talking.
Who you going to listen to?
Games & Life
Key to a happy marriage!? Saying YES.
Say yes to things things that strengthen your relationship. Even if it involves killing things.....π€·π½ββοΈ
A few months ago Eddie asked me to play a video game with him and at first I thought "I'm busy I should get this work done first..." but I also realized that in my line of work there's ALWAYS more that I can work on, so if I don't say Yes to unplugging and hanging with Eddie, then WHEN will I!? ππ½ββοΈ So I said "YEA. I'LL PLAY!!!"
....guys I'm so glad I did. I'm freaking obsessed and almost every night Eddie and I hang and kill things π€£ππΌ and we love it.
I'm reminded that I should ALWAYS say YES to things that will bring me closer to a more fun and care free and loving relationship and I should get out of my comfort zone and try NEW THINGS!!!
Too often I get caught up in the busy of life and I don't want to look back and think...."I should have spent more time with those I loved or I should have went after my dreams but was too scared to."
Life is too short guys....So play games, laugh every chance you get & get out of your comfort zone. EVERY. DAY.
Want Change More
So how do you become motivated & gain enough confidence to take the leap to work for yourself!?!?
Well it's about more of the WHY than it is the HOW....
I wanted change MORE than I wanted stay the same. Don't get me wrong I will probably always teach my fitness classes, but it's not paying the bills. With the monthly fees, ongoing certifications and conferences and clothes I was mayyyyybe breaking even. After 2 years of thinking about joining the Online Band wagon I finally did it & I've learned a few things.....
ππΌI am now in control of my own success, and that feels amazing.
ππΌI set my own hours and I finally get the sleep I need (praise the Laaawwwd)
ππΌ I have an Online Ride or Die tribe I freaking love and I finally feel WE can become the best version of OURSELVES because the support is there. EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.π
ππΌI have gained so much confidence and going from panic attacks to speaking engagements for High School students to training online, I have seen and continue to see this grow......but this goes beyond what I can do.... This is where YOU come in.
Truth be told....I need help running these groups. As my team grows I have leaders stepping out (the babes pictured here for exampleπ) and they are running groups on their own which is AWESOME but I need new people to BECOME leaders in my NEW groups. I will teach you everything I know and I will give you the social media tools to crush an online business. So if getting paid to be healthy and inspire others to get healthy excites you as much as it does meππ½then lets talk ALREADY!!!!!
