Pivot!!
Nobody puts baby in the corner.....except maybe baby...until she realizes it's HER decisions that put her there. π€¦π½ββοΈ
Guys, My journey to be a Fitness Entrepreneur has NOT been easy. And it's because I've been STUCK when I COULD HAVE taken action. Yep, when it comes down to it MY DREAMS are about MY DECISIONS & ACTIONS.
Blaming being stuck on ....no time, not confident enough, negative people....etc..all got me STUCK IN THE CORNER. And when your back is against the wall you either STAY THERE, or you DECIDE TO MOVE.
So are you STUCK? How long are ya gonna keep yourself in the corner before you decide ENOUGH IS ENOUGH? Dude, I FEEL your pain...
I don't know if you know, but I failed my first online business, but what I learned was if somethings NOT working why the HECK are you staying for it!?!? And if you feel it's NOT what you believe in, then why are you KEEPING YOURSELF IN THE CORNER?!?!!
So instead of continuing to pay $400+ a month in an Online business that I couldn't break even with.....I yelled "PIVOT!"...(in Ross voice) and joined another company that I felt so much more aligned with(& I could afford itπ€£ππΌ)...and here I am... ALMOST 6 YEARS LATER.
At the time I started my Online Business I was working teaching 15-20 Classes, working at multiple gyms, renting studio space AND personal training(yep, in total with practicing for 6 formats my "work time" was 60+ hours per week) ...I don't know HOW I found the time but I CREATED it. I sacrificed time THEN so I could have More time LATER...
I wanted a life where I could see my husband more instead of us having crazy work hours. I also wanted to travel and visit family and friends without having to ask for time off. I wanted to confront my binge& emotional eating instead of trying to outrain a bad diet πππ
My goals happened but this is isn't about me.....
If YOU are willing to step out of the corner, show up & learn then I would love to talk. I want to work with the person who knows this pain because it sucks, but it's also going to be what helps YOU reach your goals. I want that for you too. I have an INFO SESSION coming this Sat. at 12pm est. about this online business. If you are curious, fill out my *FIT-INFLUENCER/COACH APPLICATION HERE
A Kiss for My Coaches
Sending a π to my Virtual Family around the world.πI had a call earlier today with my team and lately our calls have been about seeing the difference between our lives BEFORE AND AFTER becoming a team.
π
And while yea, it's HARD to put yourself out there and talk about our own struggles, we realize that it would have been A LOT HARDER staying quiet and living in fear and shame and feeling alone on our journey.
π
So while some people might judge us for wanting to create a community of people who want to feel accepted and loved and stay more accountable to a healthier life, to us we are SO grateful that we said YES to this.
π
The family we have is so honest and open and when our video chats end in tears I realize these people are so much more than my friends. They are my family. And I love them. I hope you ALL find a family like that. And if you are looking for one then just know we are here to help you see your worth and feel loved and accepted also. Reach out to any of us. π #choosetolove #coachfamily
> Chocolates and Flowers
For us it''s more than chocolates and flowers. It's the memories made and the life we build together that makes me so in love with my best friend.....
Is it weird that we don't do the whole gift thing on Valentine's day?! Actually we don't do gifts on holidays in general actually!!!! (Yep, I'm talking birthdays, Christmas, anniversaries...all of it.) Unless I'm out and I think Eddie might like something then I pick it up and he does the same for me but it's more spur of the moment.
Early on we realized that Gifts was both low on our love language list so instead we spend more time together and if we want to spend money it's usually to save up for the next trip we take!
I'm saying all this to say that if your love language isnt gifts either(or if it is), then let your significant other KNOW! I think it's SO important for people to TALK about the things they NEED to feel fulfilled in a relationship. So ask yourself ..."Is my love tank filled?" If not, then what do I need from the person I love?""How will I tell them this, TODAY?" .."Annnd what do THEY need to feel love in return?" This can relate to your friends and family too. π It's OK to talk about your needs! It's more than OK, it's NEEDED!!
With all that said, thank you for helping to keep my love tank Full @edplacencia π Love that you make me laugh everyday & Thanks for being my best friend.ALWAYS.πππ #sarahandeddie #marriedmybestfriend
What is Fear Doing to You?
Is your FEAR fooling you or protecting you?
Guys, FOR YEARS I remember thinking it was EASIER to stay in a sucky place than it was to make a change even if I KNEW it would be better getting to the other side.
Having FEAR is NOT a bad thing, but we MUST be able to discern whether our fear is out of self preservation or is it keeping us from the life we want? Because if you don't know the difference then you could be staying in the SUCK for too long.
This can relate to a past relationship and having hives and rashes on my arms and feeling like I SHOULD stay even when my anxiety was insane.
This can relate to my first Team Call where I was the speaker and I had a panic attack and had to stop.
This can relate to hanging on to my studio even though I was going into debt because I didn't want to let other people down.
ALL these circumstances have ONE common factor ππ½Fear of letting others down. I let this fear run my life and sometimes it still does, but I recognize it and I have to ask myself if this FEAR is something to help me GROW or is it a FEAR that is only holding me back from the life I really want.
So ask yourself, when you feel those FEAR emotions, is your body trying to tell you something to avoid because of safety or is it tricking you to stay in the suck?
One thing that's helped me figure this out is thinking of the end result in mind. "If I choose to STAY and LEARN, what can be the outcome? What do I need to do to improve?" ...OR...."If I choose to find a new path what opportunities can arise from it, & how do I not repeat this, what can I learn from this?" & "Who do I need to learn from?"
Whatever your FEAR is don't let it hold you back. Fear ALWAYS starts in our body and it can easily trick you into thinking it is easier to NOT face your struggle and to stay the same than it is to , learn, grow and change.
So I urge you to sit with it. FEEL it and ask yourself if you are truly in danger or is this just stepping outside your comfort zone? Because YES you can get to the other side, but you cannot let FEAR control your decision. βπΌ #yougotthis

Ready is a Lie
LOOKING FOR 10 PEOPLE WHO AREN'T READY FOR THIS.....ππΌ
βπΌFEELING READY IS A LIE.βπΌ
I used to think "ready" was you had it ALL ready to go. Feeling π―% sure...There was SAFETY in that after all, so how could THAT be wrong? Welp, being an entrepreneur I learned quickly how much "READY" was a Lie, that I used quite often, to hold myself back from the life I REALLY wanted.
Guys, if I waited to feel like I was GOOD ENOUGH to do this I would STILL be waiting and missing out on SO MUCH. I would have still been judging that person who had the life I wanted and continued to stay STUCK....
π¨ I would have missed out on being able to fire our bosses & work from home with Eddie & living life on our terms. π«
π¨ I would have missed out on the trips I've been able to take because there would have been NO WAY to take off work and not be paid.
π¨ I would have missed out on the tribe of beautiful people I've been blessed to meet and grow our dreams together with. πππ
Ready is a lie people. If you want a more FREE life then don't think about it, TAKE ACTION ON IT!!! Don't just walk towards it. RUN! I share with you my story to help you realize there is hope if you want this also & I can show you how....
....I've got a NEW training coming in March for YOU if you are interested in working your own hours while inspiring others to get healthy. I will teach you more about social media and branding and how to run effective Virtual Health Clubs. 2020 can be the start of something AMAZING and I'm here to show you how. πππ

MLMs Are A Scam?
RANT POSTπ£βπΌ READER BEWARE.....
I read a comment today about how MLMS are terrible and people shouldn't support them. And YEP....I WAS THE SAME WAY....I would think...."oh that's cute, good luck!"...but secretly hoped they failed to prove MY POINT that it's a scam....so YEA.π€¦π½ββοΈ I used to be THAT person.....until I joined one.
I came to a point in my life when I decided I WANTED that kinda freedom I saw many of them have and after being an entrepreneur ON MY OWN, I realized I NEEDED HELP. And help came when I joined a team of people who wanted a BETTER way.
There's a reason why SO MANY companies are becoming MLMS because they see the VALUE in people working TOGETHER and they have compensation plans that actually CAN AND DO CHANGE YOUR LIFE. #yesitsarealjob
And yes, it's hard work, but it's the most rewarding work. I get to build this business in my PJS with Batman on my lap and video chats talking to babes who SEE THE BIGGER PICTURE.......like ERRDAY.π
So if you continue to knock on businesses that are bettering peoples lives then I think it's time you look in the mirror and ask yourself why you are so unhappy when someone else has more success and happiness than you.
That's what I did and when I realized I was the only one in my way I said ENOUGH IS ENOUGH and I partnered with a company whose values, programs and products were in alignment with my beliefs. ππΌ
You do you boo. Go head....if YOU are curious about it, all ya gotta do is ask! I don't care if ya don't join me I just want YOU to realize how amazing MLMS truly are. So reach out to that Online Coach, or Make up Guru, nail lady, hair product phenom, Skin care Consultant.....etc. If YOU have a passion for something then (imo) YES you should join an MLM that offers what YOU LOVE!!!!! PS, fellow MLM-ERS.... I love you ALL. Keep doing what you are doing. You change lives and you make a difference. Don't let the naysayers make you think any less of yourself. πππ

K.I.S.S.
πKISSπ.....Keep. it. Simple. Sweetie. Whenever I teach I think of that acronym. I mean yea, when my class is a challenge but I strive to keep it SIMPLE TO FOLLOW, because when I started out I was overwhelmed & stressed I wasn't GOOD at it.... But guys being GOOD is not the point. The point is that you SHOW UP and TRY. Confidence comes only after we learn from mistakes.
This not only relates to fitness but also LIFE....
πAre we over-complicating relationships with expectations?
πAre we getting confused by restricting Fad diet rules when we should just be eating more holistic?
π Is our career stressing us because we live in comparison?
We aren't keeping it simple when we CHOOSE to see the HARD. When we DECIDE that the end result is WORTH IT then we show up and we LOOK for the good and we continue to get better....and when we do that something INCREDIBLE happens ππ½We stop worrying about the end result and we start ENJOYING the moment. After all that's what life SHOULD be about.
The JOURNEY is meant to have fulfillment. And if you don't see and feel it NOW then trust me, you won't see and feel it when you hit that goal.
πChoose NOW to see the beauty in the SIMPLE THINGS.
πChoose NOW to show up and be GRATEFUL that you have a body that moves.
πChoose to love the people in your life NOW by putting aside differences.
πChoose NOW to love who you are wherever you are at & focus on ways to fill YOUR cup.
When you make life simple you see the JOY and LOVE around you.
Btw, at first I made this post to tell ya I'm subbing a POUND class today but I got a little carried awayπ€£π€·π½ββοΈIf you live close to our tiny town I'm teaching at the Garret, Indiana JAM CENTER today at 6pm. π All are welcome! $8 drop in. I promise I keep it simple πππ
