Debunking "Lifestyle Coaching"

I didn’t grow up thinking, “I want to be a lifestyle coach.” 

I wanted to be a writer but I didn’t believe I was gifted enough to make it a career. So I studied journalism in college. ⁣Then I didn’t believe I was a good enough reporter so I stuck to op-ed style pieces. ⁣Then, I questioned myself yet again, pushing myself further behind the scenes editing other journalists’ work. ⁣

I hid behind my doubts until four years ago. I realized I was losing myself by listening to the lies. Sure, there would always be someone better than me, but there’s only one me. ⁣

That propelled my business. There may be thousands of other coaches out there but there is only one me. ⁣

So what do I do?

When I started my journey as a lifestyle coach, I was sick of feeling angry & small. I decided to commit to becoming a better version of myself. ⁣

I work out 7 days a week (or at least aim to). I clean up my nutrition (while still enjoying a beer or Chik-fil-a every now and then).The most important thing for me is establishing consistency. I do quick, easy, attainable workouts, stick to my nutrition plan, and take it a day at a time. ⁣

Luckily, I have a team to hold me accountable and I invest in my mental health through books, podcasts & mentors. ⁣You don’t have to do any of this alone. We all need a community. I’m here to help you find yours.
