Finally the Painting

115909229_10102296144141102_8312780076744507324_o.jpg

In case you thought my whole life was sweating....its also drywalling, mudding and now painting πŸ˜‚βœŒI never thought I would be so happy to get to the painting portion of this. I'm not even sure what week this is, but I'm thankful for a schedule that allows me to help out when I can.

For those of you who have asked if this is my basement, no it's not. A few of us have volunteered to help a friend out while she's fighting cancer. If you can, please send a prayer. Her name is Christa and she is one tough, strong, kind and beautiful woman.πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’• #christashomeproject

Thank You, Beachbody

109877427_10102293690343532_5236833722510308706_o.jpg

Today we would have worked out on the streets of New Orleans and set another world record for people working out - outside together (and eating a beignet after) ....But we are home, pushing play and STILL showing up because we know the importance of community and friendships and getting healthy TOGETHER.

I became a Coach because this company truly cares for its community & I am PROUD to be a Coach.

I only doubted joining for 2 years because of the lack of faith I had in myself to be successful.

...But over the years I've gained the confidence in myself and I am passionate because I have found my purpose. Thank you Beachbody. Thank you @carldaikeler for this opportunity and the community you built is truly inspiring. I will continue to show up, push play on a program, follow the nutrition system (80%πŸ˜‚πŸ‘ŒπŸΌ) for myself and to show others that YES, they can become a Leader of their health & if wanting to build this as business too, I will prove that it's possible too. BECAUSE IT IS. πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’• #ificandoitsocanyou #bettertogetherweek #coachsummit2020

Looking Back

The only time to look back.....to check out the booty gainz

Self Love and Shame

109271813_10102289473918282_6474902514407937614_o.jpg

Self Love & Shame can't be in the same room.

I know some people knock on "self love" and tbh.....so did I. Ya see I was thinking self love was all about "look at what IIII'MMM doing for myself... aren't I SOOOOOOOO great!?!"

Listen, I thought "these" people just wanted more attention.... When in actuality they were showing love and compassion for themselves & accepting ALL as beauty rather than "ugliness"...& MAYBE the reason I was judging them was because my own story started out in shame.

....I grew up Christian...well you could say Catholic, then non denominational, then Mennonite, then I just decided.....I'm gonna have a relationship with God whether or not I go to church. and for me, that's when things clicked.

Ya see growing up and having SHAME around what I wore, who I talked to, what I looked like and whether or not I went to church really taught me a few things about life. And since becoming a Coach and diving into Personal development I've realized that Self love is NOT a bad thing & we must choose love over hate.

If you hear or see HATE, walk away from it. I mean really, Why are we JUDGING others(whatever their size, race sexual orientation or preference) and then saying to our friends......."did you SEE WHAT THEY POSTED?!?! What kind of attention does that person want!?!!?...I wouldn't EVER POST THAT!!!"

Alright Sharon, well good for you. But What I stand for is accepting & LOVING myself & also accepting & LOVING others who say, "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. I want to be me, & love me & not feel this judgement from myself or from others."

We are out here standing for self love because it helps hold us to higher standard & don't ya think God would want us to love His Creation...as in OURSELVES!?!? So stop the negative talk about yourself...especially in front of your kids. Stop the negative talk for judging someone else(in case ya forget, we ALLLLLL Gods children too ya know) and remember YOU ARE a part of the solution if you are uplifting Instead of trolling & Instead of judging you are praising...& I thank you for standing up for what is right.

Success Leaves Clues

107419212_10102286683290722_4373299694401462585_o.jpg

Don't let someone who gave up on their dreams talk you out of yours. πŸ’•

Instead of resenting and envying the happiest, healthiest and wealthiest people I started to realize that success leaves clues. And I was reminded over and over, that if I wanted to stop thinking like the people who gave up on dreams I had to go find the ones making it happen and spend more time with THEM. And guys. Magic happens when ya do that.πŸ’•

Shut It, Ego

107692617_10102284672490382_1854947718470681027_o.jpg

Fear would stop me from doing SO MUCH. Until I told my ego to shut it so I could focus on others instead of myself.

Ya see, I used to be afraid to invite people to join my Virtual Health Club & Coach training because their opinion of what they thought of ME was MORE IMPORTANT to me than seeing THEM succeed. I wonder what THEY could have accomplished if I was willing to get of my own way.....

...." Maybe that girl would have gotten the confidence to leave her abusive relationship." "Maybe he could have been able to quit the job he hated." "Maybe she could have brought her husband home from work too and got to grow closer because of it, instead of ending in divorce." " Maybe he would still be alive if he would have joined my group and got healthier."

These are all real thoughts I have had because I've seen peoples lives unfold on social media and it sucks to have this guilt. I'm not standing on the sidelines anymore. I'm inviting more and I'm sharing more of my story because I want this for YOU too.

If you don't reply to my invite or emails or comment or like on my posts, It's OK. Your opinion of me doesn’t matter. What matters is that I do my BEST at helping those that are willing to help themselves too.

I used to say this isn't for everyone, but now I believe πŸ’―% that this IS for everyone if they only believed in themselves enough to show that they are worthy of health and wealth. YES this can work for them the same way it's worked for me. What matters most is that you see your value and love who you are and realize you have greatness inside of you too and you decide to live with a purpose you are passionate about. Shouldn't that be what life is about anyway!?! Treating yourself and those around you with love!?! We only have one chance at life. Let's try our best. πŸ’• I'm only a message awayπŸ’•

I Wanna Be A Jeep Girl

107415523_10102283765647702_7700464267516985076_o.jpg

Guys, ya know how LONG I've dreamed of buying a BRAND NEW JEEP! TWWWWEEEEENNNNTTYYYYY YYYEEEEAAAARRRRSSSSSSS!!!! And the people that drive them😍😍 they are so my people. They even have a special wave when they pass each other. πŸ˜πŸ˜­πŸ˜

Yes, 20 years is a flippin long long time. And these last few months I realized somethingπŸ’πŸ½β€β™€οΈπŸ’πŸ½β€β™€οΈπŸ’πŸ½β€β™€οΈ 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.

Affirmations

107037078_10102282432604132_8200316246972013475_o.jpg

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 πŸ’•

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...
πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡

πŸ’•I will NOT say YES to the wrong things out of guilt.πŸ’•I WILL say YES to the right things out love for myself and others. πŸ’•I am continuing to grow and learn from my mentors. πŸ’•I have a strong work ethic & I respect BOTH the work & rest part.πŸ’•I DO value my time now and I don't allow people into my life that want to take that away.πŸ’•I no longer pity myself for the struggles I've had, instead I welcome the struggles because there ARE lessons to be learned from them. πŸ’•It's not what happens to me that matters most, it's how I react to them that shows my true integrity.πŸ’• 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. πŸ’•I am worthy, beautiful & enoughπŸ’•I am thankful for everyday.

Family Bonding Time

106493774_10102280327677422_2052134542940265573_n.jpg

πŸ’• 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!!!!!
