Wow. Talk about one of THE BEST weekends ever. Last weekend, my upline coach Katy treated me and the rest of her diamond Beachbody coaches to an incredible weekend in Deep Creek, MD. There I met up with about 30 other leaders from our team. We stayed in this beautiful house that had an AMAZING view of the lake. I'm a lake girl so it was right up my ally.
This weekend was filled with learning, brainstorming, goal setting, dreaming and some R&R (hey kid free weekend!).
At the weekend retreat, we spent a lot of time reflecting on our own goals, learning new strategies for growing our business, and how to successfully start new coaches. Also enjoyed some (ok, a lot) laughs, an unbelievable view, some much needed hot tub time and indoor pool, and a lot of stories. I love hearing how other people found one another. How Beachbody is changing their lives!! We also tried out Beachbody's new program coming out next month PIYO. It was really awesome. More info on that in a few weeks!

We also learned a lot about our own personalities through Color Codes. This is an awesome tool that any leader in any organization can use to match what truly motivates us. When was the last time you truly thought about who you innately are? What drives you? What makes you who you are? This is what we dug into and I thought was one of the most interesting things.
We are all different. We are all motivated by different things. We all have natural strengths and natural weaknesses. When you know about them, you can embrace your strengths and work on your weaknesses. And when you learn about others "color" you can better communicate and understand them. Everyone wants to be understood, right? Check it out here.

So when I first started coaching I knew it wasn't just a hobby for me, but I stayed content chugging along for awhile. I set goals I knew I could achieve so that I didn't have to step outside my comfort zone. {I still tend to do that} but now I'm not afraid to fail. I never would have thought that I would be attending a diamond coach and above
retreat weekend (I mean did you SEE the pictures?!!).
If your dreams aren't scary- they aren't big enough. So don't be afraid to set big goals. Don't be afraid to push yourself. There will be sacrifices. You have to be willing to do the work now and see results later. Its ok to fail. Failure IS an option and it's inevitable. When you fail it's a great learning opportunity. So set big goals. Don't care what other people think. It's your life, your story, your journey - no one needs to understand it but you!
I love my team. I have the best mentors. I have access to amazing tools. And if I didn't start this coaching "thing", if I listened to the doubters, if I listened to the negativity in my head- I wouldn't be where I am now. I wouldn't have an amazing team of people to "work" with, I wouldn't have a second income for my family, I wouldn't be as positive as I am and most importantly I wouldn't have all of these people that I personally helped reach their health, fitness and general wellness goals! It's one of the most rewarding things ever. Even without the prizes, trips, praise, bonuses, money- I would do this. Because helping people have a better life is totally rewarding all in itself. If you're not happy, if you think something is missing, if you want more to life than just the "norm"- message me!
{Shameless plug} I'm part of the #1 team of Beachbody. That's huge! That means an amazing opportunity for you! I want everyone to live a life by design- whatever that means to YOU! Fill out this form if this is something you want to be apart of...I'll message you when I return from our weekend away! {We're heading to the lake to go camping & boating. Lucky me- two lake weekends in a row! Whoop whoop!}

So CHEERS to the DREAM TEAM this past weekend for conquering fears, for overcoming objections, for getting real with the goals that they have set and taking action to make steps forward!
