I Wanna Be A Jeep Girl
Guys, ya know how LONG I've dreamed of buying a BRAND NEW JEEP! TWWWWEEEEENNNNTTYYYYY YYYEEEEAAAARRRRSSSSSSS!!!! And the people that drive them๐๐ they are so my people. They even have a special wave when they pass each other. ๐๐ญ๐
Yes, 20 years is a flippin long long time. And these last few months I realized something๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ I ask people to tell me their goals and wonder why they don't end up committing...then here I am having this goal and not telling you guys about it, and not even putting money towards it.
Can you say HYPOCRITE?!?!? Yea, I mean I've said "someday"...but making a REAL EFFORT is not something I've done. TRUTHFULLY.
WELL, NOT NO MO!!!!! I was researching New Jeeps and they now have a CONVERTIBLE option!!!!! What.Is. happening.
I'm doing this thing and today was Coach Pay day which means I can pay all my bills and also afford to put money towards this. And this week I'm putting $482 towards it.
Yes, this is happening. It might sound ridiculous to some that I am sharing this but to me, this is on my Vision Board and THIS IS HAPPENING. And Eddie and Batman better get used to road trips soon, because Baby we going placesโฑ๐๐ซ๐ถ๐ฅ๐ฏ #jeeplife #letsdothis
Affirmations
Owning a fitness studio might have been my most expensive lesson I ever learned.
Some of you may know, I have been a Zumba instructor since 2008!!! (this month is my Zinversary actually)
From 2008 to to 2015 I taught for countless gyms making $2.50 -$18 per class.
In 2016 we saved enough to put up front $10,000 to open up a studio and 14 months later we closed. I tell ya this story because I have no regrets. I learned so much about myself and others and I realized that if I am SPENT emotionally, physically and financially then I CANNOT have the energy to be happy and successful. And NO it's NOT selfish to want a better life for myself. The people pleaser in me wanted me to stay this way because I valued MY worth on what I did for others. But what was I doing to myself!?!? DEFINITELY NOT treating myself with love.
Closing my studio was one of the hardest decisions of my life. I felt like a COMPLETE failure to all who would attended my classes. It took me almost 3 years before I began teaching regularly again. Then COVID hit and I've had to take this on Virtually......which I am loving ๐
I've learned to roll with the punches and I've found that Coaching has once again been my ROCK to help me and others fill our cup FIRST so that we can pour into others.
And some of those affirmations that's helped me might just help you too...
๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
๐I will NOT say YES to the wrong things out of guilt.๐I WILL say YES to the right things out love for myself and others. ๐I am continuing to grow and learn from my mentors. ๐I have a strong work ethic & I respect BOTH the work & rest part.๐I DO value my time now and I don't allow people into my life that want to take that away.๐I no longer pity myself for the struggles I've had, instead I welcome the struggles because there ARE lessons to be learned from them. ๐It's not what happens to me that matters most, it's how I react to them that shows my true integrity.๐ I choose to look at what I CAN control in my life and I WILL not let the negative thoughts pull me down any longer. ๐I am worthy, beautiful & enough๐I am thankful for everyday.
Family Bonding Time
๐ Anyone else bond over house construction work?!? It's funny how working together can bring out the best or worst in people and I can tell ya this post would not be as happy 10 years ago. Tbh, I would try to get out of helping others because I thought I had NO time, and even the work I would do for others I would end up resenting. I know that sounds like a total butthead attitude (and it was) but when you don't remember to meet YOUR needs FIRST then it's REALLY hard to help others meet theirs. This girl is growing y'all and it helps that I have an already amazing family by my side. Love you Tatmans!!!!!

Opposite Life Lessons
Lessons in life are sometimes the OPPOSITE of what you thought you knew.....
Most people assume that it's the "go-getter" "successful", "happy" or "lucky" people that are that way because they have good self esteem and motivation, so that's HOW & WHY they are great at accomplishing goals.
โTHIS IS FALSE.โ
And I KNOW some of you might believe this because I did too. It's the sayings...."I'll be ready when....or if....or later.... that we hide behind in hope that "MOTIVATION, SELF ESTEEM & CONFIDENCE" just come to us in a dream or something ridiculous.......This is FALSE. IT WON'T. BECAUSE YOU DON'T GET TO STEP 10 BEFORE FIRST GOING THROUGH STEPS 1-9.
Hear me out......because you will NOT be at step TEN ready to begin. You will be at step ONE full of fear, doubts and disbelief until you actually DO what you need to do...and when you DO start making things happen something incredible happens you DO create MORE MOTIVATION, CONFIDENCE AND SELF ESTEEM๐๐๐
And that's it!!!! So take the leap...jump before you are ready, do the work and FAIL Forward day after day. And by all means, freaking FORGIVE yourself for making mistakes already!!! I don't use the word "hate" often but I HATE it when people treat themselves like crap!!!!! They are their BIGGEST hater because they let the negative voices win EVERYDAY! Don't let that be you. Fight fear with action. Fight excuses for wanting more outta life! And if you need an ACTION plan I'm just a message away๐๐๐๐

What the Hair?
I had a friend ask me about a hair "bobble".....At first I was like.....ya mean a bobblehead?!?!๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ But then I realized he meant a hair tie๐๐๐ And no, I don't have any great tips for keeping your hair outta your face when ya sweat..... I just taught my Dance Fitness class and in that hour I had a hat on, then a pony tail, then I said screw it and let my hair down. That's what happens everytime. Because nope, still havent figured it out either ๐ Fellow Instructors what do you prefer?! Hair up, down, braid, bun, shaved, etc!?!?!??! I need tips too apparently ๐๐๐๐ผ

Find Answers
Complaining = looking for attention, sympathy & pity, not looking for answers.
Asking for help = looking for answers and willing to learn.
Knowing the difference = growth
I can honestly say I felt SO LOST before knowing the difference.
It can be so frustrating at times when you feel stuck but just know your struggles don't have to be your struggles. Own them and FIND answers from those doing it right!
I am still learning from my mentors and it's ONLY because I asked for help. #beabeginner #feelthefearanddoitanyway
The Life
When I see "tired" pics of me (& wearing makeup to hide it)...I realize how far I have come these last 7 years. I am so grateful for not giving up on my hopes and dreams bc lets be real, the life of the Fitness instructor & trainer ain't easy! ( can I get an amen!?)๐
We teach at all hours and give 150% in hopes that our students will push themselves to the 60% mark. (Why do ya think I squat to the floor!?! Know what Im saying?!)๐๐คฆ๐ฝโโ๏ธ .....And when you think about it by the time you break down memorizing routines, comings up with workouts and ALL๐ THE๐ PRACTICING๐ we are wiped out.
Don't get me wrong I LOVE what I used to do Fulltime, but looking back the toll it had on my physical emotional and financial well being SUUCCKKKEED. But I'm here to say, there's a better way๐ (& nah, you don't have to give up classes, I'm doing 3 a week instead of 15+) but hear me out....because this job is also WORK. You need to show up...you need to be a beginner...you need to prove to others that healthy matters and yes... You have to get vulnerable and dig out pics that you thought were hidden in a vault too๐๐๐ผ ...but it's to show OTHERS there's a healthier way too.
โก๏ธโก๏ธIS IT WORTH IT!??!?!๐๐๐๐๐
Heck yea, it's worth it everytime I get messages from my clients and team saying they are paying off debt and reaching health goals. It was worth it when Eddie got to quit his job bc we made enough $$ from this. It's worth it bc I confronted my emotional/binge eating and over came so many of own struggles bc of Coaching and YESSSSSSSS, it's still worth it and I am gonna do this for freakin everrrrrrrr!!!!
Hear me out fellow fitness instructor.... If you not just want but NEED to find a way to monetize and have residual income without pushing your body (and sleep) to the limits then let's talk. I know your story because it's mine too. And yes. There's a better way for your emotional, physical and financial well being. I'm training new Coaches( in July) to write the next chapter of their life, on THEIR terms. Ya ready? I'll teach how, but ya gotta meet me 1/2 way๐
