Do You Want To Change How Your Life Turns Out?

This might sound like it's kind of crazy but are you making time to just stop and smell the roses? Well honestly for a LONG time I was not. 

- My life was chaotic and super stressful.
- I traveled all over the province for work, for a job that was pretty high pressure day in and day out.
- When I came home after being away for a good portion of the week, I felt deflated.
- I was missing my kids and my husband and I came home to a house that needed tending to and a family that needed attention. There weren't enough hours in the day.
- I was running solely on copious amounts of caffeine & gasoline. 

Something had to give because before I knew it several years had passed and it was just like a hamster on the wheel. Running and running and running but never getting anywhere and never seeing any changes. 

When I first started my Team Beachbody Business, I really had no clue what I was going to do with this but I just knew that I needed to do it. I was passionate about and believed in everything this company represented and I really just wanted to be part of that. 

That was over 3 years ago. 

Today I can say that my life has flipped completely around. I make time in every single day to do the things that feed my soul, even if it's small seemingly insignificant things. I get to see my kids and my family every day. I get to spend time with my grandson. I get to teach other amazing people how to make changes in their lives. I get paid to do something every day that I LOVE! My caffeine habits are now solely for JOY. 

This is a life that I get to choose and design. 

My income has increased every year, my stress levels are virtually nonexistent and I am heading into a year that is going to be the most impactful so far for me in this business. 

I am so pumped up for what changes 2016 will bring to the table. My new coach training will kickoff very soon! If you are interested in making fitness YOUR business and want to create a life that you choose, drop your info here:  Team Subject To Fire Coach Application

Kicked Up Zucchini Boats

I was wanting to whip up a boats recipe for 3 days and was trying to find one that I saw on someone's Facebook wall.  I had no luck and grew impatient, so I whipped my own concoction up. It.  Was.  WICKED!

If you are 21 Day Fixin' it, here is the breakdown for each 1/2 of the boat, based on the size zucchini I chose:
3 GREEN (salsa & zucchini) homemade salsa is all veggies, no sugar, FYI
1 BLUE (cheese)
1 RED (turkey filling)

So here is the down low on ingredients and prep.  First preheat your oven to 400 degrees.

You will need:  

Turkey taco filling (see below)
Shredded cheese of your choice
1 large zucchini
Wendy's Bitchin' Salsa (click link for recipe)

Filling:
1 pound ground turkey
1/2 medium onion, diced
2 cloves of garlic, minced

Put these in a fry pan over med high heat to start to sautee then about at the 1/2 way done point I just threw in these spices:
Chili powder
cumin
smoked paprika
coriander
oregano
Sea salt
fresh cracked pepper

I did not measure, but I will say about 1 teaspoon of each for estimation sake.

Finish frying til meat is fully cooked.  Remove from heat. 

Cut zucchini in 1/2 lengthwise and with a melon baller (a spoon will do too), scrape the soft inside seedy part out.  The nastiest part...haha!!  Spray a baking dish with olive oil.  Set the zucchini in pan skin side down, and give the 2 halves a light mist of olive oil.

Take about 1 1/2 cups of your turkey taco filling (yes there will be some left over...make a salad with it tomorrow!) and put in a bowl with 1 cup of Wendy's Bitchin' Salsa.  Mix together and divide mixture between the two zucchini halves.  

Cover with foil and bake in oven for 25 minutes.  Remove foil, sprinkle with cheese and return to oven, uncovered for the last 5 minutes.  Remove from oven and TOTALLY dig in and enjoy! 

"WTH Did She Do Last Week" Sunday Oct 26th, 2014

OK, let's just lay it out here....moving sucks.  Ass.  I have been a bit preoccupied with the cardboard and the ripping and tearing of my basement, but with the aid of my BFF, Juan Valdez, we are getting through it and making poop happen, DESPITE it all!  It takes a special kind of crazy (I know that) to get through this.

So this week I am back on track with the posts and making a bit of a tweak to include some other facets of my journey like fitness and Personal Development and maybe even throwing in some of my fave things to perhaps inspire you to try something new.

Since I am all about the food, lets get this party started with what I ate.  And of course my bevvies of choice.

Throw in my Shakeo and the day is complete!

Let's talk about the food, shall we?  Mmm, Hugh Jass salads and Pumpkin pancakes and bacon, oh my!  Eating for this competition has been nothing less than enjoyable so far.  I know it will change but I will take my nut butters while I can.

Now about those workouts.  This week I felt really strong.  I felt muscles and saw muscles I have never seen before.  I also weighed in 3 lbs less this week, which is rather mind blowing.  Since I started, my goal was to get my body leaner.  I am sitting at around 13 lbs less that when I started working with my coach.  This has been a slow and steady journey but I have loved every single minute.  Patience is a virtue I am learning well!

Heading to other news, to keep myself on track, focused and fired up I do daily personal development.  It not only fuels my drive but it helps me be a much better leader to my team.  It keeps me inspired! 

This week I have a been a podcasting, book reading, webinaring freak.  Chalene Johnson's Build Your Tribe is on the top of this list! She is SUCH a blast and is one of my mentors.  If you haven't looked her up, DO IT now!  :-)  Throw in my book, "Influencer" and I have a well rounded mental feast.

So as I head to the kitchen to make my afternoon coffee & coconut oil, I am once again feeling fired up to kick ass and take names this coming week.  Maybe it's the caffeine....or maybe life is JUST that great! 

What are you losing...and what will you gain? Find out here...

This morning I asked the question on how much you all dropped on average at Target/Winners/TJ Maxx, etc per visit. The majority of you told me 100.00. To be honest, that is me, too. Every. Damn. Time. Why the heck is is SO easy to spend money out on new leggings (yes, I need more, right?), that amazing blue leather purse (Whatttt? It matches my killer shoes I bought there LAST week) and those multi-color bowls that will make my food porn pics even MORE food-pornier. Yes. I just made up that word.

And on the opposite end of the spectrum, so many people that are interested in what I do as a coach hesitate and ponder and speculate on spending 40.00 to become a coach and start up what potentially could be a 6 figure (or more) income. FYI: I am not there yet, but I will be.

Honestly...what do you have to lose? 40.00? As you all told me, we drop that at the snap of our fingers, but what do we get in return? More “stuff” to clutter up our homes and then by next week, we are already tired of it.

What do you have to gain? First off you get to be accountable. To yourself. That is the gift that keeps on giving. Secondly, you get me...I will train you and show you the ropes...there is nothing and I mean NOTHING to be afraid of. I knew jack squat when I became a coach, but I learned it! You also get my team...Team Subject To Fire. They are my extended family and we all help each other. Like, crazy help each other.

You don't have to know everything. You don't have to be ultra fit. You don't have to have experience. You just need to be willing to learn AND then teach. You need to want things to change WAY more than you want them to stay the same. You need to want to help others more than anything else. And you need to wake up every day with a fire lit. That 40.00 is nothing compared to what you get in return. You get to impact lives every day. Yourself included.

I am opening up 5 spots for my next new coach training. If this speaks to you (or sounds like someone you know), please talk to me.

For the record, that 40.00 I spent 2 years ago was the best investment I could have ever made. This is my job. This is what I wake up every damn day, excited to do.

And it can also be yours.

"WTH Does She Eat" Sunday Sept 28

OK so food is kinda of a big deal in my house.  Errry damn day, you are going to hear me talking about how much I just simply enjoy food.  And being around OTHERS that feel the same way.

I am eating for competition, however and that puts a cap on some of my food fun, but you can bet your ass I am enjoying every bit of what I am eating.

Here is a bit of the good stuff from this past week.

Breakfast:  Hello...Shakeology Pancakes?  Yes, I think I will.  And then most of the rest of the week I ate my weird pancake bowl concoction.  I was off eggs this week in a big way.  I think next week I will bring back the guac love.  :-)

Moving on to lunches and dinners....mmm, deliciousness abounding.  Bacon and brussel sprouts and wait for it...MORE bacon. I seriously enjoyed this week of food well, things are changing up again for me next week, so my coach says, so I enjoyed every bite!

I even got to factor in a wonderful meal of Thai food.  I most definitely died and went to heaven with my amazing bowl of Peanut Curry, but with that being said, I was plenty hungry the rest of the day after sucking up so many calories.  GAh...macros are macros and I have to follow them and it was worth every bite!

I also was on a spiralizing frenzy this week, with both sweet taters and zucchini.  Hello, lovers.  Everything is magical when sauteed in coconut oil!

This week was all about the Greenberry Shakeology.  Because well, I am out of chocolate and my shipment is floating somewhere in the city of Red Deer.  BUT I do love this flavor and am enjoying Shamrock Shakes, my lassies & lads!!


And you always know there is going to be plenty of coffee.  Ahhh, Nectar of the Gods!!  :-)

Stay tuned til next week! 

What the heck is a Pancake Bowl?

Well, I will tell you.  I found a recipe for pancakes on IG that I thought sounded great, but I knew it would be a fail, and it was.  So to save the day, I threw it in a bowl, microwaved it and I present to you, the Pancake Bowl!  I have since tweaked it so this is my version.

Hello, Lover.

It might be weird to some (not me, but hey I am not professing to be normal here!) texture wise, but I am now officially addicted to these, especially on my low carb days.  (I am carb cycling, btw).  This just darn well makes me happy!

Topped with nut butter or coconut manna and maple syrup, if you choose, and it is dee-vine!

Recipe:

1/3 cup pumpkin puree
3 TBSP coconut flour
2 TBSP oat flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/3 cup unsweetened coconut milk
extra water (I add about 1/4 cup)
dash salt
sprinkle cinnamon
splash of vanilla

Mix all dry ingredients together, add liquids and stir til lumps disappear.  Microwave for 2.5 - 3 minutes.  Top with nut butter or coconut manna & real maple syrup or Walden's Farms syrup (I use this as I am in competition prep).

Get a spoon....DIVE IN!

October New Coach Training

I live in a small town of 2,025 (or so Wikipedia tells me). I started out as Beachbody coach here almost 2 years ago and did most of my leg work here. I moved away for 1 year, but now I am back and will continue to grow, expand and thrive in my business. In. A. Small. Town. To add fuel to my fire, my top coach lives in this same small town. Whoa, what? 2 success stories from the same small town MUST be unheard of! Just wait. We have more Rock Stars up & coming here. Bow Island is rocking the Beachbody ship.

I am now among the list of Canada's top coaches and yes that came with a price. That price for me was choosing temporarily, to sweat, work insane hours, work 2 jobs, sacrifice things, do the thing that not everyone thought was the norm, dream crazy dreams and help to inspire others. Guess what? It is working.

I now am a full time Beachbody Coach, I work for myself and I am Queen Bee & #girlboss of my own company. My world has changed. I wanted a better life for my family, I wanted to help others see they are never alone in their journey to health & fitness. I also now have the opportunity to lead and teach others & pay it forward. I am working my way to financial freedom and bringing others with me.

This is SO crazy to call this my life, and I feel like someone should pinch me every day my eyes open.

Does this sound just crazy enough to make you want to change your world? I can teach you all I know. ONE ON ONE. I will not profess to know everything because to be honest there are a whole lot of things I am still learning which excites the heck out of me.

I have goals. I have plans. They are coming true, inch by inch, row by row. (Who sings that song, anyway?)

Are you coming with me? Message, email, or shout out to me here in comments.  We can do this!

Be a Beachbody coach.

**Start date of Oct. 6th**

She's got thighs...

I am pretty sure I am not meant to be a size 4. Or a 2. Hmmm, I think I was skinny once...when I was 3. LOL. I have decided I really don't care about those numbers. I have other numbers in mind. 

How about putting a focus on the number of times we move our bodies. How many days we sweat and feel like we conquered the world because we ran 10 miles. Or PR'd our deadlift. Or how many times during the week we made healthy choices for our bodies instead of choosing crap...when there is so much of it in our face 24/7 to sway us. How many times were YOU strong when you went out to eat, passed by that bagel shop or drove on by the Golden Arches?

Those are the numbers that matter. Sizes, schmizes. They mean nothing. There are beautiful, wonderful, amazing, healthy fit people in EVERY size imaginable and I am one of them. I have friends that are power houses and they are wrapped up in these tiny packages but size is deceiving. They are strong. They can kick ass!! I also have some friends that society might consider overweight that could throw me under the train in any race and fitness competition. They would mow. Me. Down. 

Healthy is not a cookie cutter thing. One size does NOT fit all. I am surrounded by fit friends of all shapes and sizes and honestly they inspire me. We don't need to be labeled by a number on our jeans. That is SO 1980's!

I believe if we wake up and track the numbers that count...like how many times we make better choices, how many days we wake up with a wonderful attitude, how often we show those we love that they matter, the times we give to those who need it more, the moments of random acts of kindness....that our notches we have marked off would be way more significant at the end of the day than a tag sewn to denim.

Wait...I am woman. With strong-ass thighs. Hear me roar.  

Are you proud of your strong legs too?  I would love to hear your answers below in comments!  

My Team is GROWING!

Did you ever wonder why in the heck did you NOT know about this before?   Did you know you can start your own health & fitness biz where the only investment is YOU?

 FYI:  I am totally jealous they didn't they have this deal when I signed up as a coach. 

I consider what I do as a coach a TOTAL investment.  It is an investment in my health, my fitness and the Big Kahuna:  my future!  I did something not everyone is prepared to do.  I worked a full time job while I was working my butt off as a Beachbody coach, but wow, has it been worth it!  To live in this moment, TODAY knowing I can live the life I create, on my own terms and finally get to be with my family while I have a career in health and fitness that does NOT take me away from them!  

If you KNOW you are ready for something more and want my complete guidance and attention, I have some really cool (or in this case, totally HOT) extras for the month of September!

GOOD LUCK!!!

What is the 21 Day Fix?

I am so glad you asked!

They say it takes 21 days to form a new habit and that is just what we are going to accomplish!  The 21 Day Fix is a hot topic these days and for good reason!

The 21 Day Fix program takes the guesswork out of weight loss. It's a unique portion-control system combined with easy-to-follow 30 minute workouts that fit into anyone's busy schedule.

Trainer Autumn Calabrese shares her passion for food and fitness as she shows you how to make simple choices that takes those question marks out of food AND fitness.

This program really gets me fired up because on any given day the thing most of my clients say they struggle with is food.  How much?  When?  How many calories? Am I getting enough protein, enough veggies?  GAH...it is STRESSful!

On February 17th you can be part of a group that will take this head on and learn how to manage all of that!  I am hosting just a smaller, intimate group and honestly not everyone that applies will be accepted.  I am looking for an honest answer when I ask, "Why do you want to be part of this group"?  I want people who have a burning desire for change and are really ready for this to be YOUR moment.

I will be with you the entire 21 days, to motivate you, to help keep you on track, keep you accountable, be there to answer questions and be your back up and cheerleader!  This will all take place in a private online support group.

This is not free.  The cost is $140.00.

Serious applicants only.

Let's go into an amazing summer armed with the best you possible!
