STRONG is the new skinny!

Being toned is in style

Being strong doesn't mean you have to 
have bulky muscles and ripped abs!

You can create a toned body by doing bulk-free 
exercises, such as Triceps Down Dog or Dancing

Change It Up!

Change It Up!


We all get caught up in the circle of monotony...doing the same thing over and over.  I know, it's so convenient being in a routine....eating the same thing at the same time!  However, to ensure you get the results you want it's important to change things up, confuse the body a little!  Try different meals and spice up your workout regimen and try different activities.

Sexy Bootae!

Sexy Bootae!


If you are one of those people who sit at a desk all day, it's so important that you get up and move around every once in a while. 

You can tone up that tushy from your desk!  Periodically stand behind your chair and do side leg lifts and then leg lifts to the rear. Try doing 3 sets of 15 each leg.  It's so simple and quick but incredibly important!

TIP OF THE DAY:  Take the stairs instead of the elevator, and park in the back of the parking lot.  Free calorie burners!!!

Eat Clean and Train Dirty!!


Eat Clean and Train Dirty

Fueling your body with the proper combination of superfoods, i.e., fresh produce, whole grains, lean protein and low fat dairy is so important. When you fuel your body with high octane fuel you allow it to perform at its optimum capacity!  It will give you the much needed energy and will protect you from chronic diseases!  One awesome perk is it will also whittle away inches from your waistline!!

Living healthy is 90% nutrition and 10% fitness, so giving your body proper exercise will increase and magnify the results from a healthy nutrition plan!  So eat healthy and get moving!!!

Dream Big!

It is so important to dream, to see a beautiful and compelling future that you can attain!  If you can visualize yourself in your dream life, your mind will start to take steps to make that vision a reality! I live my life as if I have already achieved my dream life!  I do this because if I am living like I have the life I dream of creating, my actions daily will work hard to keep that dream alive! Without a dream, a life goal, we will stay stagnate in our lives...doing the same things over and over and wondering why things won't change!

We have the power to create a life by design!  There is no longer any reason for excuses!  Dream big and then fight for it!!!  It's not always easy.  It's not always going to go smoothly, but if you truly want something you can NEVER give up!!  You are worth fighting for!  YOU deserve to live the life of your dreams!

Dream big and work everyday to make that your reality!  One day you will wake up and you will be living your dream!!

My Transformation


My health and fitness journey began about 4 years ago. I woke up one day and decided that I was tired of the way I was feeling emotionally, mentally and physically.  I decided that I was worth fighting for and that my children deserved to have a complete mommy who would be around to see them grow.

I didn't grow up in a household that valued health and nutrition, so this journey that I was about to embark on I was flying by the seat of my pants. The internet became my best friend!  I researched for hours the best at home fitness programs.  I decided on a in home program for a couple of reasons: 1) I couldn't afford to pay a monthly gym membership fee, 2) I was embarrassed how I had left myself go and worried about being judged and 3) I felt selfish leaving my kids to go and give myself time at the gym.  My internet search led me to Beachbody namely Insanity.  I must have watched a million YouTube videos about this program, its intensity and its results. Through much apprehension, I ordered the program.  I was so excited! I checked the mail EVERYDAY waiting impatiently for my special package!

After a week it finally arrived!  I held the box in my hand like it was Christmas Day! As I opened the box my anxiety began to overwhelm me...I was excited, but also so scared, scared of failing, scared of not being able to complete the program. I read through all the material numerous times and jumped in feet first the very next day! It wasn't any great surprise that Shaun T kicked my butt!  I took more breaks than I actually did working out to my max!  I was drenched in sweat, laid out on the floor, worrying how in the world I would pull myself together to do this all over again tomorrow!

Tomorrow came and I reluctantly pushed play!  As the days and weeks went on, I found more confidence!  I also found I was taking less breaks and able to do more of the workout!  This was so exciting to me!  After my first month, I found myself so frustrated!  I had worked so hard, but no results. I started to do research in an effort to see if anyone else was having this problem.  Sure enough, I found that while I was taking care of myself in the fitness department, I was lacking in the nutrition department.  I didn't realize that becoming fit and healthy was 80% nutrition and 20% fitness.  This knowledge jump started my love for nutrition and eating clean. I quickly threw out the junk and started fueling my body with high octane fuel!

My second month of Insanity came quickly to an end.  I felt so sad!  Shaun T had become such a huge part of my daily life and I wondered what I would do without his motivation. Results were in...my body was changing and this fueled my fire!!! Over the next couple of years my life was all Shaun T...Asylum 1 and 2 back to Insanity!  Shaun T changed my life from the inside out!

A dear friend a few months ago, August 7, 2014, offered me an opportunity of a life time.  She invited me to be a part of her health and fitness team as a coach!  I was a little unsure at first...would I be able to reach people, what would people think of me...the normal self doubt conversation that I had become to good at having with myself.  Needless to say I accepted the offer!  How exciting that my health and fitness journey had come full circle...what started my transformation, Insanity and Shaun T, I was now a part of that very company sharing my journey!

This opportunity has been the biggest blessing of my life!  I get to spend my days sharing my story and helping others!  There is nothing more rewarding than paying forward what I have learned along the way!  Helping to change someones life, mind, body and soul is AMAZING!! I get to get fit and healthy while paying it forward!  Life is so good!

My health journey still continues...I am fully submersed in Insanity Max 30...the results are amazing!  Shaun T and his programs are my soul mate workouts...I always go back to him!

If you have been contemplating jump starting your health and have no idea where to start, message me!  I would love to get to know you and help you the way Shaun T has helped me!
