My 1 year coaching anniversary!

Today is my one year anniversary...for coaching that is!! Our 1 year wedding anniversary is in April, but I signed up as a coach 2 months prior to that. And yes, during that crazy wedding season! Every day, I am so thankful to God for this opportunity. 

Looking back now, I can't remember a time that I wasn't a coach. And I'm well aware of how cliche that sounds, but seriously, coaching has becoming SUCH a big part of my life. I consider it my full time job, even though I also work 40 hours per week. Coaching has taken my heart and soul captive, and I feel like God has created me for this very purpose. 

Seeing women gain confidence, energy, and motivation is one of my biggest joys. Seeing my coaches be able to lead their own clients and make an income following their heart is an unbelievable thing to see. Our coaching team is so diverse, which makes us blend together perfectly! We rely on each other, cry to each other, and lift each other up. We encourage each other to be the women we were created to be and, as John Maxwell states numerous times in his books, reach our God-given potentials as human beings. 

I became a coach because I loved the Beachbody program I was doing, and I wanted to spread the love. Little did I know that becoming a coach opened the doors for me to join an AMAZING community of women and men striving for the same thing: to end the trend of obesity, to provide support, tools, and encouragement to live a healthy life, and to teach each other how to live a life by design, doing what we LOVE.  Oh man, that's a whole lot of extras thrown in there! Not only do we get to live the dream of being our own boss, we get to be our own boss doing what we LOVE to do. And there can't be anything better than that! 

If you have ever wondered about what I do as a Beach body coach, I'd love for you to fill out the form below. Our team is hosting a free, 5 day sneak peak into coaching group; no strings attached and no obligations! We will basically chat about what we do as coaches, a day in the life, and answer questions in the process! I'd love to hear from you and welcome you into this amazing community! 

The Platinum Edge 2015 Recap!

I don't even know where to begin with this post, but I know I need to write it. The quote above describes how I've been feeling the past few days, so I'll use it as a catalyst to get my thoughts down on "paper."

This past weekend, I went to Dallas for a coach leadership training conference with our team of coaches. I'm part of the Platinum Presenters group of coaches, and this conference is a yearly event with our team! This was my first ever coaching conference (Platinum Edge!) and I can honestly say that it was an unforgettable experience! 

Let's backtrack a bit: on February 18, 2015, I signed up to be a health and fitness coach. I had no idea what I was getting myself into, I just knew what I wanted to inspire others to find their strength to get healthy, and the courage to believe in themselves. I found my amazing mentor, Anna, and joined her team as one of her Inspire Joy Coaches. 

I began to really take ownership of this new opportunity that God provided for me. I loved that I was able to just be myself with other Inspire Joy girls, and that we all pushed each other to be better versions of our true selves. I also was able to reconnect with one of my best friends since I was 16, Marika, and she joined my team of coaches that I have started mentoring! 

This past weekend, I was finally able to meet these amazing women in person. It was as if we had been friends for years. We laughed, ate, hung out all day, listened to amazing motivational speakers, learned a plethora of information on how to better ourselves and our business, and ate a ton of salad! I can honestly say that I found my tribe, I found my people who just get me, and who I can be totally real with. 

I still can't believe that this is my life. I'm business partners with one of my best friends, I am part of an amazing team of coaches that I feel like have instantly become sisters, and I get to share what I am passionate about; a healthy and happy lifestyle. 

This weekend gave me the added boost of confidence I needed. I feel SO legit now. I can't wait to continue to grow as a person, push my limits, step outside of my comfort zone, and push back all of my fears. And the best part? I have an amazing team that will back me up and support me along the way.

Being a part of Inspire Joy has given me the confidence to grow and really step into the purpose that I know God has called me to. All those years of struggling and questioning who I am, and why I've been through hardships, have prepared me for this moment. In Dallas, I finally had a peace and calm about the ministry God has called me to. And it all has to do with helping those around me reach their full potential and become heroes of their own story. 

You are worthy too. You are full of potential. You can conquer your fears and finally choose to believe in yourself. Are you ready to completely turn your life upside-down and be filled with the quiet peace that comes with doing what you have been put on this earth to do? If you are, I'd love for you to get in touch with me! Don't wait until the "right" moment to start living your full potential...life is too short for that! And you have too much magic inside to to keep it all to yourself.  Fill out the form below to get in touch with me and we can start chatting! 

Why I LOVE Coaching!

For the past 6 months, I have been an online health and fitness coach, along with my regular full time job as a registered dietitian at a dialysis center. I feel that these two positions have driven me straight to the heart of my passion: helping people get healthy, have a good relationship with food, and ultimately have a healed and whole relationship with themselves. But where my true passion lies is being a health and fitness coach. I feel that God has called me to this very position, and all the events and ups and downs in my life have compounded to this moment; where I am able to help those around me succeed, strive, fail, pick themselves back up, and conquer what they set out to do.  

Every time I try to express to people what coaching has done for me and my passion for this newfound job, I tend to get overexcited, anxious, smile and laugh a lot, and just say "it's so great! it's SO great!" Um...use grown up language, Tveen!

This past weekend, I decided to quiet my mind and try to figure what WHAT makes coaching so great to me. Why do I love it so much? Why do I look forward to working on my coaching business after a FULL day of work as an RD elsewhere? Well! Here are some reasons why I LOVE coaching, and if you love any of the following aspects of health, coaching may be a passion for you too! Feel free to contact me at tveenRD@gmail.com if you would like to join our team of coaches and start living out your passion!

But first...

What do I DO as an online health and fitness coach?

As a Beach Body coach, I run online fitness challenge groups which serve as accountability groups for my clients. I help those that are struggling with losing weight, eating healthy, or are just in need of amping up their workout routine. The accountability these groups provide is powerful, as it helps us all go through this journey together. I also have a team of coaches that I mentor and help build their own businesses, which is such a rewarding part of this job! 

Why I Love Coaching!
 

1. Health and fitness have always been a huge passion of mine I've been doing home fitness videos since I was 2 years old, and have the home videos to prove it! Becoming a coach and helping people get healthy in the comfort of their own home has been so fulfilling to me! Having an unhealthy relationship with food myself in my teen and early adult years has given me a first hand experience of how we can use food for our good as well as our detriment. As a registered dietitian, I know all about the nutrition aspect of health, but Beach Body coaching has provided an outlet for me to actually motivate and inspire those around to me to take care of their bodies through good food and healthy movement. I love that I can help friends, family, and complete strangers live healthier and happier lives.

2. Becoming a coach provides me with the accountability I need to stick to my own healthy eating journey. As I mentioned above, weight and food have always been a struggle for me. I lacked accountability in my own life, which led me to make poor food choices, gain weight, then over-restrict, lose weight, overeat, gain weight, and so on. I have gone up and down 20-30 lbs more times than I care to remember in my lifetime. As a coach, I run online accountability groups for my clients who want to work with me (check out my Bootcamp page). These groups not only help my clients, but they help ME as well! Being a coach gives me a safe place to share my struggles, while still having a network of accountability with my clients and the other coaches on our team. 

3. No one likes to talk money, but I'm going to talk about it. MONEY. No matter how much we want to avoid the subject, we all want to feel secure in this department. Being a coach not only fulfills my passions, but it also gives me the hope of financial freedom! Coaching has given me the opportunity to make money doing what I love, while being in the comfort of my own home! I was even able to pay off all of my student loan payments last month (yes, I have multiple ones) with JUST my Beach Body earnings, and still had some left over. I am beyond grateful for this opportunity and can't believe that a "job" exists where I can do what I love, while making money and slowly getting out of debt. I have the hope of being financial secure one day and being able to pay off all my loans and live debt free. No, I don't care for the fancy cars or big houses, I just want the security and peace that I am no longer in debt! I am hopeful of what is to come and am so grateful for this blessing!
