Why Coaching? - Time to Get Some Energy!



Life is full of changes.  Just when you think that you’re settling into something, you enter a new phase of your life.  High school to college, single to married, childless to parent.  Parent to 1, to 2, to 3 (you get the idea), plus all of the little changes in between. 

The newest phase of my life is parenting.  And my husband and I jumped into parenting with abandon, having 3 children in 3 ½ years.  Talk about significant life change, plus significant change to my body.  The change to the shape of my body hasn’t been all bad, as expected.  In fact, post babies 1 and 2 I was able to get to a place where I was quite happy with the look and shape of my body (hopefully I will be able to pull that off with baby #3 also).

However, the physical change that has not been as easy to adjust to is exhaustion.  It started out as an “Oh my gosh, I’m SO tired” feeling, and has morphed into a “This is just the way life feels” acceptance.   BUT I DON’T WANT TO ACCEPT THAT!!!

I want to be full of life and energy for my own sake, as well as for my children and my husband.  So, as I contemplated how to reinvigorate myself I was drawn to the idea of Beachbody Coaching.  My aunt is a Beachbody coach, and after the birth of my second child, I felt a burst of “I can do this” energy after I joined one of her challenge groups. The motivation of committing to something was what I needed to get myself feeling recharged. 

So, now as I enter my recovery phase from baby #3, I want to be motivated right from the beginning to recover my body, find my energy, be invigorated about life.

Care to join me in reclaiming the pep in your step?  Let’s do this together!
