Why should I have a coach?

Coach

 

 

What is a coach? How will having a coach benefit me? These are some typical questions that may people have when thinking about starting a new program.

 

To me, a coach is a person that inspires you to do better. They are there for you to help through struggles and to celebrate your successes. I never thought about myself as being coach material. I've had many interactions with coaches throughout my life. I played softball growing up. My children have all played sports. You can always tell who the great coaches are. They have such a passion for whatever it is that they coach. It means something to them. They swell with pride when someone on their team does well. I came across the coaching opportunity in April 2014. I wasn't sure if I could do it. It scared me a little bit. I didn't want to fail myself or anyone else that picked me to coach them. I really wanted to give it a try though. I thought this would be a great way for me to get my health and fitness on track and stay there. In the process, I have fallen in love with Beachbody, their products, and what they stand for. I became passionate about coaching. I absolutely love what I do. How many people can say that?

 

As a customer, you may be wondering what a coach will do for you and how will this help you? I did my first YouTube video on coaching. Its a short video. Talk about stepping out of my comfort zone on that one! But I did it and I guess it turned out pretty good. Check it out.

 



 

So there it is. That is what you can expect from me as a coach. Here is a recap.

 

Goals: figure out what your goals are. How much weight do you want to lose? Do you want to gain muscle? Maybe somewhere in the middle and just need help with nutrition. Then break them into smaller steps to get you there.

 

Challenge group: a challenge group is just a closed Facebook group. Only the people in the group can see what is posted. Every person in the group has decided to make changes to themselves as well. I check in with the group several times a day.

 

Motivation: I will do everything I can to keep you motivated and on track. Most people in the group with us will. We become each others own cheerleaders. I will share my struggles and experiences and how I have overcome them.

 

Support: I am here for YOU! Anytime you have questions or concerns, you can always ask. You will have many different ways to contact me and I am just about always available.

 

I will do my best to tailor the experience to fit YOUR needs. What worked me may or may not work for you. But we will figure out what does together. I want to see you do well and will do everything I can to make that happen. I have passion for this and I think everyone can benefit from having a coach. Honestly, I don't think I would have stuck with my health and fitness if it wasn't for my coach. I believe its a key to success that many are missing in their lives.

Emerald Coach

 Emerald Coach

I started this journey in April 2014. I came across an ad where I could make money from home helping people with health and fitness. At the time, I was feeling a little lost. My husband works in the oilfield so I wanted to help bring income in for our family so when thing got slow for him, we had something to fall back on. I also hated to work at a traditional job because I liked being able to travel with my husband and I didn't want to put our daughter in day care. I had never been completely comfortable in my skin. I always wanted those nice, toned legs but never had them. I would try exercising but would soon lose interest and stop. I never really watched what I ate. I have a fast metabolism so I didn't really gain weight no matter what I ate. I didn't know the other benefits of eating clean. So when I saw that ad, I thought why not. If I can get myself on track with exercising plus make some money, that would be great. I ordered the 21 Day Fix and Shakeology and I signed up as a coach.

I joined a 30 day challenge group. I did really well with the Fix. I lost 5 pounds and 7 1/2 inches in the 30 days. But then after that I faltered a little. I would miss workouts or not drink my shakes. We started traveling a lot so I stopped bringing my weights into the hotel. I fell in love with the products, what being a coach was about, and what Beachbody stood for but I lost track of my motivation for starting it in the first place. As the holidays started approaching I sat down and re-evaluated whether I still wanted to continue coaching or give it up. I felt so strongly about helping people get healthy, I knew I wanted to keep going. So, I set some great goals for myself this year. Wrote them down and shared them so that I can be held accountable.

Because I was able to reset my focus and I feel strongly about what I do, I was able to move my business forward and advance up a notch. I am now an Emerald coach. I was so excited to see that on my Beachbody site. I logged into it as soon as I woke up and I think I even squealed a little when I saw it. I am so proud of myself that I was able to do that. I hope to be able to continue to help people with their health and fitness goals. I love seeing others succeed and feel better about themselves.

This has been such an awesome journey so far. I have really learned a lot about myself and what I am capable of. I can not wait to see what the rest of 2015 holds for my family and I.
