TOP 8 Ways Beachbody Has Changed My Life
I actually do not even know where to begin with this topic! 4 years ago when my Coach Lindsay and I, along with a handful of other coaches started Team Dynasty (aka the Bombshell Dynasty) in Tampa Florida, I wouldn't expect to be able to do what I am doing today both physically and financially. Now, I am by no means a Warren Buffet or a Mark Zuckerberg, far from it... ha ha, but I am happy to say that I am checking things off of my bucket list faster than IHOP sells pancakes! It was definitely not an easy journey, but I learned from my mentors that if I wanted to be successful in life, that I had to willingly help others become successful, so that's what I focused on, and still focus on till this day. It literally took me a little over 2 years to fire 3 of my jobs and become a full-time Beachbody Coach. With persistence, and the right attitude, anyone could accomplish this! My goal is to help anyone with that DNA (determined natural ambition) to become better than I am (it shouldn't be that hard lol)! And that's the intriguing part of this business, it's NOT a traditional business, because people are focused on making sure that you conquer your goals, unlike other businesses where it is cut-throat. I firmly believe that this is the future of entrepreneurship - PEOPLE "truly" HELPING PEOPLE!
Here are the TOP 8 Ways Beachbody (the company I am affiliated with) Changed My Life:
1. BEST SHAPE OF MY LIFE - Believe it or not, I was a borderline alcoholic a few years ago! I was in the nightlife business and hosted parties for a living. I was on a path of destruction because I was killing bottles of Patron Tequila faster than they could bottle it. I knew that I had to make a change, and that's when my brother introduced me to P90X. I began my P90X fitness and Shakeology journey back in September 2010, and since then I have been an advocate for anything Beachbody. If something changes your life in a positive way, I guarantee you that you would be sharing it with people, and that's what I did. I currently have about 900+ Beachbody customers who I coach online.

2. TIME FREEDOM - I remember then I first became a Beachbody Coach, I mostly did it to get a discount on my Shakeology (what most people do in the very beginning) because I thought that I wouldn't have the time to build such a business. I had 3 jobs and was also raising my daughter. Where would I have time to start a business? Times got tough, I hated what I was doing, my boss ruled my life, and I finally woke up and set some goals for me and my daughter. Most people make time for things that are important to them, and once I made a decision to make a better life for my family, that's when things began to change. Because of my Beachbody business, I now have more time to do the things that I really enjoy.

3. FINANCIAL FREEDOM - Money was never my #1 goal or motivation. In fact, I hated money! Before working 3 jobs, I was in the nightlife business and turned it into a 6 figure income business. I knew what having money was all about, or so I thought. After the nightlife business, I changed my point of view about money, and changed my fast-paced lifestyle to a very simple one. I continued this mindset with my Beachbody business, but now my financial goals are to benefit things such as charity, family, and my church among other things. Money is not the root of all evil, it's what you do with it that counts. My Beachbody income continues to grow every year, and that just means that I can do more to help the people and positive organizations around me.
4. MORE TIME WITH FAMILY - If you were to ask me what the most important thing in my life is, it would be my family, especially my daughter! When I worked close to 100 hours per week, I barely saw my family, and rarely had the energy to spend time with my daughter. If I wanted to spend more time with my family, I knew that I had to do something different with my life. Sometimes when you are already living a busy life, most people do not even think about sacrificing more time with starting a business, but I knew that if I didn't do something with my life, that it might be too late! I'm glad that I made those sacrifices because now I can see my family anytime that I want. It's really a good feeling to make decisions based on my family and I, and not a J.O.B!
5. NO BOSS - I've had plenty of jobs through the years. Some of them I truly enjoyed, and some I just did even though I hated it, but you know the drill, I had bills to pay. I know a lot of people who love their employers, and I get it. One of the best jobs I ever had was working for the Hyatt Corporation. I mean come on, FREE 5 star rooms around the world, what's not to love about that =) The only thing that I didn't enjoy was trying to get a shift covered to go on vacation, or to spend time with family, or to do an obstacle course race. Sometimes I couldn't get my shift covered and I would miss out on the things that really mattered most in my life. With my Beachbody business, I now have the freedom to work when I want, and where I want. If I don't want to work and I want to spend a week with my daughter, then my business allows me that freedom. I understand that becoming an entrepreneur is not for everyone, but all I'm saying is that if you have BIG DREAMS, then the only person that can make that happen is you. You work hard for you and your family, why not do it for you, and not a boss.

6. TRAVEL THE WORLD - When I traveled overseas to Europe for the first time in 2001, it was one of the most amazing experiences I've ever had. It opened up my eyes and showed me how big this world really was, and I wanted more, but I just didn't know how I could do it. Everyone has a hobby, a passion, or something that they could do forever....that's what travel is for me. Beachbody has given me the freedom to travel the world, and the cool thing about it is that I can do my business from anywhere around the world as long as I have an internet connection. My prayers have been answered!! Thank you Beachbody =)
7. DONATE - Back in the days, I used to spend $300 for a pair of jeans, $100 for a T-Shirt, $80 for a ball cap, and $15-20 for a cocktail....and guess what it did for my life? NOTHING! It enabled me to have fake friends and have no savings account. Yes, I made bad decisions, and not all of my friends were fake, but that lifestyle was not a very healthy one. These days, I am much better with my finances, and rather than spending it on useless things (to prove status), I am now focused on giving back to the people and things that matter most in my life. Don't get me wrong, I still like nice things, but I don't need it like I use to think I needed it back then. Beachbody has made me stronger on the inside and the outside, and I am very thankful for that.
8. HELPING OTHERS - This is something that I have always enjoyed doing. Even when I hosted parties and events for a living, I felt like I was doing something good by offering a service that made people happy. I have always been about putting people first before me, and Beachbody Coaching has allowed me to take that to the next level. Rather than breaking up marriages (yes, my parties were pretty crazy) and promoting hedonism, I am now able to help people in a more positive way by helping them live healthier and more fulfilling lives.
