I was a good kid. Happy. I excelled in school. Smart. I had lots great friends. Lucky. A supportive family. Loving. Went to church every Sunday. Obedient. I respected my parents and they trusted me in return. Fair. I even discovered my talent at an early age. Ballet.
By the time I was twenty, I knew who I was. Confident. I was completely in love with who I was. Proud. With a nice boyfriend. More love. And a bright future to look forward to. Enter life... I just had to choose one. Writer? Teacher? Actress? Doctor? Lawyer? Chef? You name it, I considered it. Choose ONE?
Unlike most, I did not go to university to discover what would define me. "What I did" was not going to equate to "who I was." University just exposed me to a million more interests, a million more paths, and I knew I could be happy in ANY one of the million possible scenarios.
Turns out I was learning life's greatest lesson, I just didn't know it yet: Happiness works from the inside out, not the other way around. If you love yourself, if you are genuinely happy being you, you don't need a career to "make" you happy.
It wasn't until I shifted my career focus from making MYSELF happy to making OTHERS happy that I truly discovered what I want to do and stepped onto the path I know will lead to the realization of my full potential.
Step 1. My undying passion for fitness.
Step 2. A new found nutrition obsession.
Step 3. Job I loved most so far: dance instructor.
Step 4. Part about that job I loved the least: disciplining children.
Step 5. Add steps 1-4, and you have my career: personal trainer.
I will use everything I love about myself to help others, thus "spreading the love" and this blog will help me take it to the next level!
Think of me as your little online coach :)
I'm here to share through a body, mind, and spirit approach, tips about fitness, nutrition and well-Being, which I have learned the value of through my own personal experience.
I'll share exercise info, cooking tips (see Chef? above), recipes, inspirational books, short stories, and words on plugging into this beautiful universe of ours!
WHY?
Because when someone asks me how I'm feeling, I want to say "FANTASTIC" and mean it!
Lots of love!
Sarah
