Your 2022 Mindset will make or break you
Hey there! Happy New Year!! I just sent this to my accountability groups and I wanted to make sure I sent it to you too!!!
I love love love Brendan Burchard and I found this topic to be super inspiring & I wanted to pass it along to you (after all, that's what friends do ;)
Here are my quick 5 takeaways:
#1 So you have a goal, dream, vision WHATEVER IT IS. Ask yourself "when are you working on it DAILY?" If it's not important to you, you won't do it. But if it is, you will.
#2 What is the 1st step? Do it NOW. Yes, RIGHT NOW, before your head hits the pillow. Stop waiting for your life to happen, YOU need to happen to your life! As in stop STOPPING. You can do this.
#3 90 Day Challenge. Do you have one? If not, get on a track! Did you know that I host 6 week Challenges every other Month?? My next Challenge begins in ONE week. If you need guidance with mindset, nutrition and (optional) workouts, let's talk!
#4 Who is your Accountability buddy? Are they reliant? Are you motivated to show up for them and vice versa?? Did you know I host Saturday Audiobook Clubs followed by a workout session (Starting again on January 15th) for my clients?!!? That's right, we have a WEEKLY meet up where we can share our wins and also our struggles and we work on a plan to get and STAY on track! Lean IN to the community. That's what I did and trust me, it's working for me and for others joining us. I see it EVERY DAY.
#5 Have a MANTRA. Do you have a habit of negative self-talk? That's a choice ya know. You CAN choose to listen to a greater and better version of yourself. You just need to practice it daily. Every time I see a mirror now I say an affirmation and also give myself a little high 5 (got that one from Our Sunday AudioBook Club- The High 5 Habit)
As I share these TOP 5 tips with you I want you to know that I am ONLY successful in these areas now because of the people I decided to surround myself by. And that's where YOU come in. You aren't alone in this and if you have BIG goals or little goals in 2022 I want to be that accountability buddy for you!!!
My registration closes for our January 10 - February 20 group THIS SUNDAY. So if you have some goals, let's CHAT. Let's get you signed up in time and ROCKING your daily to do list! You down?!!?!
Respond to this & I will send you more info about how to join our group 'MY LIFE, MY PRIORITY". And if you have a specific goal I want to know!!! Please fill this out so I can meet you where you are at and get you set up right.
I hope to hear from you and if I don't, no hard feelings. I know how HARD it is to be in place to say, I NEED THIS HELP. Heck it took me almost 2 years to sign up for this, then another 3 years before I FINALLY committed to this.
Seriously, if you think I have it all together, I DO NOT, but that's why I am so passionate about what I do. It's because if I, a past people pleasing, anxiety driven, panic attack sufferer, college dropout, past failed business owner can OVERCOME & actually have success in this, then YES so you can YOU. I'm here whether you are ready or not. Trust your gut & Lets goooooooooooo!!!!
XOXOXO
Your friend & Coach

Ready for you, 2022
Ready for you, 2022. Let's talk about the word MANIFESTING for a hot second.
During today's vision board call I was taking down my 2021 goals and replacing them with my 2022 goals, and while I wasn't able to accomplish ALL of my goals, I DID accomplish quite a few of them & that felt good.
That word MANIFEST just means that you see yourself and the world around you as if your HUGE dreams do actually exist for you.
You feel it in your core & you know the impact it can be for you & your loved ones. When you open your eyes you ACT like it's already happening here in the present.
When you do this 2 things happen..
#1 you feel grateful for the present path you are on towards this goal.
#2 you show up MORE for it & that thing you want is attracting it like a magnet.
So trust the process and never, NEVER put a cap on what you want in life.
When your goals are BIGGER than what you think is possible the BRAVER part of you is given permission to show up MORE.
(Read again)
Yet, the opposite is also true....
When your goals are too small, the doubter in you shows up, insisting to tell you that it's still just too much.
You will hear things like:
"You can't do this."
"People will judge you."
"You should only stick with what you are good at."
"You'll never bee good at...etc."
Sound familiar?
It did to me, until I decided to set bigger goals.
I didn't know EXACTLY how to get there but when I dreamed BIGGER, I attracted the opportunities, I celebrated my wins along the way, and my fails were NOT fails because I learned to be braver each day.
Take for example the jobs I LOVE...
Being an Online Coach, fitness Instructor and now working for @fitnessteeco
The me 7 years ago would have said, that's all too much. But there was a voice inside of me saying,"just try".
The worst thing is not thinking I might fail, the WORST THING is never even taking the chance & looking back thinking...."I wish I would have."
Maybe for you, you are reading this and HOPING for a better year than the last. But ask yourself, are you willing to give up the doubter in you? Are you willing to stop repeating the past? Are you ready to stop talking problems and starting taking ACTION on solutions??
You already have what it takes, give yourself permission to GO FOR IT.
And if you need guidance I have a group starting January 10th called MY LIFE, MY PRIORITY and it's not just the tools you get that matter, it's the belief that you need to see that this is possible for you.
So let's chat and manifest some crazy awesome things together. You down!?!?
Can A Home Workout Really Replace the Gym?
It doesn't look like much changed here, but pic on the left of me I was teaching 15+ classes a week and practicing at home for another 10 hours a week! Yes, that 25 hours a week working out!!!!!
Tbh, I was nervous switching ENTIRELY to a home program in 2017 after I closed my fitness studio and I wasn't sure I would get good results with working out UNDER 5 hours a week! (Actually the first program I did START TO FINISH in 2017 was a TOTAL of 2.5 hours per week!)
Guys, overtraining is NEVER the answer! Trust me, I KNOW IT!!!
When you train properly, introduce a superfoods smoothie daily, get enough rest and water then YES, your entire body (& mind) can change for the better. Trust me. I know!!!!!
Prep week for "MY LIFE, MY PRIORITY" Challenge starts January 3rd, would you like me to save you a spot?!!?!?
Fill out my FREE WORKOUT application. 2022 doesn't know what's coming. Are you ready!?!?!?! #sweatwithsarah #thesweatlifewithsarah #healthyandwealthycoaching #transformationstory #transformationtuesday

Merry Christmas from us to you!
Hey there! It's been a hot minute, so I wanted to send you a little update and Happy Holiday well wishes!!
I'm just gonna blurt it.......I got a NEW job! Yup, I'm STILL doing the fitness thing (Online Coaching, teaching Zumba & Zumba Toning at my local gym) but I just accepted a position as a Brand Creator for the Company FITNESS TEE CO!! Check out their page!!
I LOVE, LOVE their clothes and I'm willing to bet you probably own or know someone who has bought one of their cute tanks! I couldn't even believe it when the owner messaged me on IG. I seriously screamed when I got the message wanting me to work for them. Anyway, I wanted to share with you because we are friends and I want to help promote this INCREDIBLE business.
The owner is Scott and he's a single dad to 3 beautiful girls, and he is one of the hardest working people I have ever met! I'm so grateful to be on his team! You might see me shooting IG, TikTOKS and FB posts for them in the near future. EEEEEE!!!
Ok, enough about me! We need an Eddie update! ;) He is still ROCKING his TWITCH streams! I'm so proud of him! He has built such an awesome community with it! He is fun, funny and genuinely cares for others. Honestly he has taught me so much about being more supportive to my circles too. And what you see is what you get with Eddie. He is my BEST friend & I love our life together.
Btw, something we did EARLY on dating was read the 5 Love Languages together. If you are in a relationship or plan on being in one I HIGHLY recommend that personal development book. And also, use it in the context of making the relationship with YOURSELF stronger! What I mean by that is meeting your OWN love language needs.
I find that when you are fulfilled, you aren't looking for someone ELSE to fulfill that need for you. A couple isn't 2 halves, they are BOTH 100% their own! And a STRONG relationship with yourself is JUST as important (tbh, even more important) than a partner relationship. Build, support and LOVE yourself because when you do then you will mirror that love to those around you and YES it makes for a great and strong and long lasting friendship. <3
I hope you have a wonderful Holiday. I hope that you realize the greatest gift that we ALL have is to love and appreciate the life we have in this moment RIGHT NOW. Life is too short and when we think about it, we have a REASON to be here. This gift of life should NEVER be taken for granted.
I want to say thank YOU for being here too. Thank you for being my friend. Thank you for opening up this email. Thank you for being who you are. You and I are meant for great amazing things and I look forward to making each day better than the last.
Have a Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday friend!
Life Can Be Hard
Wanna know what's hard? College. That's why I dropped out (before I flunked out).
Hard also NOT getting the job at another gym, because WHILE AT THE INTERVIEW I asked to take a break to go to the bathroom, as I walked to the bathroom I passed out, hit my head on the concrete floor and woke up to a concerned mom and kid. Guys I was OVERTRAINING so much that my body couldn't handle it. Also, I didn't get the job.
What else is hard? Opening up a fitness studio only to close it 14 months later bc it was costing me MORE money to keep the doors open.
Running an online business & getting healthier? Hard too?
Depends on who you ask because I'm going to break this down because maybe a new perspective can give you the permission you need to believe in yourself to do this too.
In my Online Coach job, I do 4 things. (3 of them are taking care of ME)
#1 I grow my mindset by diving into personal development EVERYDAY.
#2 I also push play on a fitness program that continues to make me feel freaking strong and I love it! (20 min a day, so do-able, and NOT overtraining).
#3 I drink a superfoods smoothie EVERYDAY that helps heal my gut.(been drinking it 7.5 years, yea I believe in it).
#4 I share all this on social media showing that it works for me...bc IT DOES.
Is all that actually HARD? Heck to the NO. I am honestly so surprised more people don't do this. (It costs 44 cents a day ppl)
When you follow a system for success it ACTUALLY works. You just need to create a REAL schedule around what you want out of life.
I've overcomplicated it in the past and I want to make sure that people joining me don't make the same mistakes I did! I want you to experience MORE wins MORE often!
So how about it? I've got a group starting up January 10th called MY LIFE, MY PRIORITY & I ask you to commit to the SAME 3 things above most days of the week! That's it! And if you want to learn and earn $ doing this online too, then I'm here to share HOW.
Message me anytime! Until then enjoy time with your loved ones! I'll be in messages again on Monday. XO
Check In with Yourself
Get paid to workout?!?! Yea, that appealed to me so I became a fitness instructor in 2007. Hello Zumba
7 years after that I became an Online Health Coach.
And yes, l'm STILL doing both because when passion, purpose and a paycheck come together then ya KEEP GOING!
Is it easy!? Nahhhhh, and here's why...
Because you MUST...
#1 Show up even when ya don't want to.
#2 STILL show up when others don't.
But the lesson I've learned is NOT TO TAKE OFFENSE when people say one thing, then do another.
Guys, people have free will and NO ONE is perfect!!! Including ourselves!!! Why do I seem to forget that at times?!
It's alright if you relate bc If you are in the health field also then know this....
You are in control of YOUR ACTIONS ONLY.
Also remember your thoughts are driving the bus, and the road you are on can lead to success, health & wealth OR bitterness, envy and emptiness.
I know because I have been to both places....and the blame game just doesn't work.
So check in with yourself. Take a few deep breaths.
Make a list of what or who is not serving you right now. Are you saying YES to others when you really should be focusing on YOU and YOUR growth towards what YOU want out of life?
That ain't selfish sis!!!
Because when YOU are happy, healthy and able to provide MORE for the people you love that is the OPPOSITE of selfish, RIGHT?!!?
So what next?!?!
Set up some boundaries, and look on the other side of that hope.
When you do this you can make room for growth, positivity & fulfilling relationships & opportunities & HEALING the relationship with yourself.
Btw... I've got a New group called "MY LIFE, MY PRIORITY" starting January 10th.
Whether your goal is making time for your health and/or learning to make some $$ while helping people online, I'm here to help
Check out my Virtual Health Club form if you are curious.
I'm So ready for 2022 to be our best year yet... Ya coming with?!?!!?
Suck It, Cove!
Cheers friends! While I'm super thankful that most of my taste and smell is back, it's coffee that still tastes a bit off from getting the COVE... but I'm NOT quitting it Coffee means too much in the Placencia household.
We met at my sisters coffee shop and after the first time we hung out I knew I wanted to be with Eddie the rest of my life. So yea, I'm gonna keep our morning routine. Suck it Cove
You Gotta Show Up
"Is that what you WANT to do?
Well, ok, just don't half ass it."
A quote from today's audiobook club that we all resonated with. Maybe you had to be there to hear it and FEEL the weight of that question...but maybe you don't.
But I want to ask you...have YOU ever asked yourself this?
And if you have, did you give it your best? And what I mean by BEST is NOT about being perfect...it's about showing up MOST days of the week with the intention, decision and action that, to YOU, is your best.
Only YOU can be honest here. No one can tell you if you are doing a great or sucky job at it. That's all you.
If you are going through a hard time, then give yourself a week, month...heck even a year, but then DECIDE that no one is going to save you.
Your life is YOURS & remember you do NOT have to live up (or down) to someone's standards.
How freeing is that?
Listen, I know it's the end of the year and you aren't thinking about taking action until 2022, I get it.
Tbh, I'm wearing a robe, while on my period writing this and trying to pull myself to take action too
I.GET.IT.
But if you want to chat about not half assing it in 2022 then I'm here to push you.
I've got 2 groups coming up, one for making your health a priority. (We start with 20 min. a day. Don't freak, you got this).
And another group where we make our health AND wealth a priority in a LEVEL UP Coaching group with me and other driven peeps.
I'm here to help, if you WANT the help. I'm here to be a friend who holds you accountable if you WANT the accountability. You just gotta show up and WANT this too.
Are You Conscious?
Every day we DECIDE to be conscious or not.
We go through the motions, most of the day, unconsciously.
We just keep scrolling social media....feeling this weird pressure on our chest, hoping it goes away by looking for entertainment or a distraction from the rest of the world.
We unplug from real life and plug into a dream life bc that feels better in the moment.
I get it bc I get caught up in that too. So what helps me is to stop, and practice gratitude for what is.
I choose to see the positive in my work. I choose to see the positive in people. I choose to see it IN MYSELF and I am grateful for this gift called life.
And maybe you can't see the positives because most likely you have put negative meanings on circumstances or people.
But what COULD happen if you start over? What COULD happen if you forgive them and even more so, YOURSELF?
Freedom isn't given from them, It's a choice you give yourself.
The world is more ABUNDANT than it is scarce and it IS actually a beautiful place when we see the bigger picture.
So today, and going forward I am looking for the meaning and the lesson in the day.
I am CHOOSING to see the positive.
I am CHOOSING to cherish every moment and every person.
Because if this is my last day on earth I want it to be my best day.
