Wouldn't It Be Great

Looking for fulfillment!!? Start helping people...and stop doubting what you CAN accomplish.

I was working for others, too scared to step outside my comfort zone. I thought working Online was spammy, but deep down I was afraid I wouldn't be good at it.

So I waited and watched others while they became successful. My inner mean girl envied them ...then I thought..

"WHY NOT ME..."
"WHY AM I HOLDING MYSELF BACK..."
"WHAT WOULD I LOSE IF I TRIED, BUT WHAT WOULD I GAIN IF THIS ACTUALLY WORKED?!"

I think you know how the story goes bc 7 years later, YES I'm still doing it, and YES still loving it!!!!!

I want you to ask yourself

Wouldn't it be great if you could help ppl by offering 1500+ workouts!? (That you didn't have to pre record)

Wouldn't it be great if you could offer meals plans and supplements created by UCLA nutritionists and world known health professionals that believe in REAL nutrition and NOT the FADS that come and go?!

Wouldn't it be great of you could get paid for showing up on social media proving that these workouts and supplements really do work?!?!

Wouldn't it be great if you could join a team of people that "get you" that also want to focus on growth, community and a chance to dream BIG, without being judged about it?!?!?

Well here's your invite. I'm putting together a group for FEB 15-MARCH 28 And I want to run this WITH YOU. I will teach you how. All you gotta do is fill out my Coach Application or talk to YOUR COACH! And trust me, this investment is worth it...bc YOU are worth it!

I seriously am amazed that it costs me $5 a day to run a business, and YES, that includes a DAILY meal AND access to these programs. Ya think your future, nutrition and fitness is worth FIVE BUCKS A DAY?!?!?!?! Me thinks so #youareworthy #lstsdothis #healthyandwealthycoaching

Failed But Not Failure

140160722_10102469724679312_6044239164013824358_o.jpg

Yo, I FAIL...everyday & I realize YOU need to see it too. So, this morning I woke up to losing one of my "ranks" which unless you are in the Network marketing world you might not know what that means, so imagine being "de-moted" and a little bit of a pay decrease.

Is it because I'm a BAD Coach?
No.

Is it because I should have worked harder?
No.

Is it because I missed a workout?
No.

So WHY did this happen!?...Imma tell ya...

There are A LOT of things in this business that I CAN control, but it's not ALL in my control (what job is!?)....& I've learned (over the years) to accept that.

No blame is given and no victim mentality here. I do not live my life in comparison anymore. This business has taught me that.

Some will stay, some will go. What I can be is a friend and create a space for ALL to be successful, but at the end of the day it's our INDEPENDENT decisions that lead us to where we end up.

Yes there will be bumps in the road but OVERALL... am I thankful for this Online Job!?!!

HECK.TO.THE.YES.

As a matter of fact my paycheck was actually what I was AIMIMG for just a year ago...now it's a "low" week for me...what!?!? Yo... I'm not a number or a rank, or even an employee!!! Jeez Sarah, remember where you came from!!!

So yea, I remind myself of this freedom this business has given me...and "given" to me ONLY because I decide to show up. Be resilient. Learn from my mistakes & share my journey. All of which I CAN control. So that's what I'm gonna do.

Don't get me wrong, this biz takes work, and Wayyyy more mindset/emotional work that I thought, but the greater the struggle the greater the reward. And I'm not just talking $$$. I'm talking confidence, forgiveness, hope and love for myself & others from an opportunity that didn't even exist not that long ago!

Anyhow...that's where I'm at today and wanted to share. No, I'm NOT a bajillionaire, quadruple Harry Potter Status Platinum Executive...whatever ya wanna call it.

I'm Sarah. I'm happy, grateful & I'm proud of how far I've come. And that's what truly matters MOST to me. #selfacceptance #selflove #iamproud

For the Nailbiters

140327355_10102467825864552_5166642105445224716_o.jpg

About 10 years separate these pics and the biggest difference to me...if you look closely enough...My fingernails and tbh, that's what I'm MOST proud of when I look at these pics.

To some it might sound ridiculous but to me that was one of the FIRST things I was able to change and to STICK to it, LONGTERM.

I was anxious, manic and would bite my nails till they bled.....EVERYDAY.
I was so ashamed and embarrassed and that anxiety only made it worse.

So what changed!?!? My mindset.

If I wanted change I had to own it and give myself PERMISSION to change. I had to stop being a victim and start..OWNING what I could change.

I see how that ONE decision had a domino effect for years to come.

Even my friend groups started to change. Instead of drama & gossip ppl, I distanced myself bc I no longer NEEDED to put down others to feel better about myself. I no longer looked or NEEDED approval from people, so I stopped searching it out.

Next up, what else was I using to comfort myself negatively?! FOOD. My binge and emotional eating came to a stop when I started asking myself WHY am I doing this?! I threw away my scale next and started focusing on small doable HEALTHY habits that I COULD control.

I also stopped saying YES to the easy things I was good at and started saying YES to what pushed me and got me outside my comfort zone(hello Coaching).

Even my income was impacted because of being able to learn and grow from those I no longer envied but now admired. I decided I COULD LEARN from them bc the jealousy game was NOT working!!!!

Sometimes you just need ONE THING to REMIND YOURSELF that you have accomplished it and yes, THAT ONE THING can help you tackle the next goal.

Seeing how much I've grown in this last decade only makes me excited for what's to come next...not just for me but for the NEW Coaches I'm training.

I see myself in so many of you & watch out Team SWEAT.... You are gonna surprise yourself & make yourself Proud too. I know I'm already proud of you #healthyandwealthycoaching

So what do ya do when your weekend consisted of burgers, fries, pizza and white claws?! Say NO REGRETS....AND MOVE ON.

Seriously guys being healthy does NOT mean you can't enjoy your treat mealssssssss (yes plural here)....and I'm ONLY posting a sweaty selfie bc the workout I DIDN'T do was yesterday....so I did it TODAY instead. I'm getting back on track today...because Monday is just another day.

Say It

139407940_10102464021698132_2939036876280663707_o.jpg

If you have nothing NICE to say...say nothing...but if you have something NICE AND GOOD AND POSITIVE to say that WILL help encourage others then it is our DUTY to say it.

Ya know the other day I saw someone who is such a positive and inspiring individual(although they RARELY post) ... say that they were leaving social media bc of all that's been going on...and it got me MAD....WHY, you ask!?!?

Because we as people can either ACCEPT the world as it is and Complain, Judge and hate and leave, run away, ignore it...do all the things that we SHOULDN'T DO.... OR we choose the opposite...we stand UP for those hurting. We CHOOSE to show up on social media sharing AND caring for others.

And that's EXACTLY what we SHOULD be doing. We use our voices on social media to give hope and show there IS good left in the world!!!!!

If YOU are tired of seeing the negative then post something POSITIVE...We need to show we are NOT alone in this world. We need to connect now more then EVER!

And if you need some POSITIVITY in your news feeds then follow these fellow Coaches. Evedyday they inspire ME to keep showing up and sharing and caring for others. Love you ladies. Thanks for being the light in a sometimes dark world.

Claim & Believe

We get to where we are TODAY, by the choices we made YESTERDAY. We get to where we want to go TOMORROW by the choices we make TODAY.

When I was working for multiple gyms and barely making enough money to live off of I KNEW something had to change. I knew if I wanted a different life then I HAD to be the one who changed. I didn't have to wish or hope that someone would see my value....I had to CLAIM IT for myself & I had to believe it for myself.

So I jumped into this Online Coaching SKRRD TO DEATH and that's the FIRST lesson that I was taught.

For reals.... I didn't BELIEVE I was worthy for more, but over time that belief grew and that confidence grew. I went from Panic attacks on a call of 10 people to now smiling and feeling energized in front of fb group of over 138,000.

I started with one...and now my email list and customers have grown to over 5,000.

I went from working paycheck to paycheck to retiring my husband...who now builds this business WITH ME.

I went from overtraining, overworked, underpaid & binge emotional eating to help me "cope" ....to where I am now...healthy & happy in every one of those areas.

I don't say ANY of that to brag, instead I use my story to show you YES, THERE'S PROOF THIS WORKS!!!

I FEEL FOR YOU FELLOW FIT-PRENEUR.... I don't want you to waste another day, hour, minute or second doing what you know won't bring you what you want in life.

Lastly, If your goals align with mine and you truly LOVE helping people become healthier then I welcome you to check it out. If you have ever thought about doing what I do as an Online Coach then I invite you to fill out my Online Coach Application. I'm working VERY closely with new Coaches teaching them on growing thier network, branding and even more...helping them REALIZE AND OWN THIER WORTH!!!!!

If you've got big dreams too then let's do this. TOGETHER....

Disclaimer this biz doesn't gaurentee success. It's based on each person's work and effort...because YES this is a real job....and by far the most rewarding job I've ever had. #bringiton #healthyandwealthycoaching #letsdothis2021

Motivated by Fear

138643000_10102462142149762_3448677910813400366_o.jpg

If you don't agree with what I have to say then please private message me rather than commenting. I'm not trying to start a war.. These are just my beliefs & I'm sharing what has helped ME.

What's your purpose & are you living in alignment with it? If so then you are living in the NOW and you see fulfillment & opportunity is everywhere.. and if not then you are living in the past or future and FEAR is your driver for INACTION (or NEGATIVE action ) & Negative self limiting beliefs.

Before I became a Coach I was always living in fear...
Fear of failure...especially in front of others. I also lived in constant comparison mode as well as trying to please everyone and "fix" everything. No doubt that comes from a childhood of fighting parents and scare tactics to "keep us safe" .

I was so unsure of myself for YEARS until I started to uncover WHY I reacted to things the way I did. We all have very animalistic self preservation acts that usually keep us stagnant and afraid rather than safe....and the example last night reminded me of this....

Last night I watched video footage of the capitol building and it made me so sick to my stomach. Fear started to take over... As tears ran down my face I had to remind myself that I was going to be OK. We WILL overcome this. We don't need guns and violence to "protect ourselves " Even though I grew up being taught that I see the other side and it saddens me greatly.

Violence is NEVER the answer & we SHOULD see right from wrong. There are Acts of Love and there are Acts of hate and we should know the difference. Fear is the driver for acts of Hate and that's what I saw last night.

Anyway.. I didn't know where this post was going but as I react to the negative around me I'm reminded that I can respond with Fear and hate or ...not.

I choose instead to live in alignment with my purpose and do my best at learning and growing and choosing love over hate. It's a much more fulfilled life that I'm living in NOW than when I was a child and there's no way I will ever go back to being driven by fear. I hope and pray that the fear driven find the peace they are searching for...rather I hope they CREATE that peace before it's too late for them.

Choose love. Not hate. Yes, it's a choice. Own it.

Bring It, Monday

Ok Monday, let's Bring it.. say it with me....
"I am the exception. My adversities are my advantage & my past struggles are my strength because I understand that the harder the lesson... the more I learn from it."

Step 1..... Make a list of what YOU want for YOUR life. Its not selfish to want a better life...because when you are happier and more fulfilled then you create a domino effect and the same goes for the opposite. So choose wisely

Step 2.....OWN what you CAN control. Your health (especially mental health) takes time. Be patient with yourself. Forgive your past so you CAN move forward.

Step 3... Find a system that works. For me what wasn't working was the people pleasing and validation from others. Instead it took me joining a group of people that wanted MORE our of life. I had to stop sitting down with complainers and self proclaimed victims who could change their situation, but didn't. When you want more for others but they don't want that for themselves or for you then you MUST step back and spend more time with those who DO. It's hard at first but eventually becomes a very fulfilling and happy life.

If you need help in any of these areas I'm rooting for you and would love a chance to chat. Linking arms is NOT just about joining a group...it's a friendship and like fellow Coach @genalinshea reminded me today...our team is the positive support we all needed in our own lives. And I'm so grateful for that reminder. We ALL need a tribe who have each-others backs. #youcansitwithus #healthyandwealthycoaching #thesweatlifewithsarah
