These Are A Few Of My Favorite Things! Birthday Edition





Today is my birthday!   I thought I would share with you a few things I am madly in love with!   First up is the new Shakeology Boosts!   I just got back from vacation and I have to say.   Not a lot of veggies were eaten.   So today I added a full serving of leafy green vegetables to my Shakeology.   Now I know what you are thinking.   How does it taste?   Honestly I don't notice a flavor change at all!   Here is the scoop:

Power Greens Boost contains veggies like cucumber, kale, and spinach to deliver a full serving of vegetables in each scoop. Plus, this potent Boost supports the body's natural acid/alkaline balance.

There are other options as well:

Focused Energy boost :This unique formula is designed to deliver a wholesome boost of energy. The energy comes from 100 mg of natural caffeine from guarana and green tea. This Boost also supports mental clarity, alertness, and focus.  

Digestive Health boost: With a unique blend of 7 grams of both soluble AND insoluble fiber packed into every single scoop, this formula stands apart from typical fiber supplements that contain only soluble fiber. This powerful boost helps support regularity and digestive health

How will you manage your kids device time this summer?

Remember the days when watching TV was the only option?   We had 2 channels.   I spent my summer watching Days of Our Lives because there was NOTHING on!   Now we not only do we have hundreds of channels to choose from, but there is YouTube, and Pinterest, and Instagram, and Facebook and well you get this picture.  


I know what is on my mind this summer.   How will I monitor the kids and their device time?   I have 4 kids and they are all grade school age and older.   My son is the most affected when it comes to too much device time.    He is moody, grumpy, and out of sorts if he spends too much time.

Unless we make a deliberate effort to have a plan for our device time it won't happen.

I am curious to hear from you.

How do you monitor your kids device time?

Does it affect your kids mood if they spend too much time on it?

How do you keep up with all of it?   Snapchat, Vines, Instagram, email, texting

Are you overwhelmed?

We are having a discussion on my Facebook Page this week.   I'd love for you to join us!

We are the first generation to parent this issue.   I know as a fellow parent I can use all the help I can get.

From depressed mom to empowered coach! How Beachbody coaching changed my life. For real!



2011 I was DEPRESSED. My marriage was in a bad place. I didn't know myself. I did not recognize myself when I looked in the mirror. I tried to find some pictures of me, but I was hiding. Hiding behind people. Hiding myself. 
Looking back I had NO idea how starting P90X would change my life so completely. While my husband and I received counseling and healed our marriage. I needed something for myself.

I completed P90X and had great results. I was looking for a way to earn money from home. I have a strong desire to be a stay at home MOM, but also contribute to the family finances. My coach Joline offered the opportunity to me several times. You might be surprised that I said NO, several times. I didn't want to be a yucky salesman. I wanted a legitimate way to earn income from home. What I didn't know is that the coaching opportunity was my answer.

October 2011 I said YES. Reflecting back again I had no idea how this would dramatically change my life. The doors were opened wide to helping several women to lose weight and in turn change their lives. I have had countless conversations with women which gives me the opportunity to speak TRUTH into their lives. THEY matter no matter what the scale says, no matter how much they weigh. They have value! What a privilege to speak TRUTH. See I believe that weight loss, and getting healthy are emotional and spiritual as well as physical.
3 years later I can see how God is using me. Becoming a coach just gave me a platform to speak truth. I earn a decent income all from home! I am a confident leader of a growing team. I get to be a part of life change. What a blessing!

My team is having a 5 day sneak peek into coaching. I want to invite you to check us out. To ask questions. To be informed. So if you are into fitness. You want to earn an income from home that is legit. You have a desire to pay it forward and help others. Then YOU don't want to miss this! 


Please comment below so we can connect and you can have your own platform for your own message!   I look forward to hearing from you!

Grace for the Race



Today I was on the phone with a friend.  Someone who has recently gained back the weight she had lost.   She was asking me for advice on what she should do to get back on track.   As we are were discussing her options, I reflected on my own journey.   I reflected on other people whose paths have I have crossed.  Truly in the 3 years I have been a coach I KNOW that this path to being healthy is a spriritual, physical and emotional journey.   Do we take time to address the spiritual or emotional?  

Introducing GRACE FOR THE RACE

My coach Joline and I want to host you on a 5 day journey.   5 devotional thoughts that can prepare you to take the first step.   Our hope for you is that you find grace and learn to love the journey you are on.
