On the flip side, a downside to being a SAHM is the lack of financial contribution and ability to have a little something for yourself. I have been a SAHM for almost 6 years now. I have 3 children ages, 5, 4 and 22 months. I love them dearly but I found myself lost and lonely often. I never knew what I was doing wrong to help make these feelings go away. I was very involved in a local moms club, I was even President at one point. I have had my kids each involved in survival swim lessons, Musikgarden, Music with Mar, weekly playgroups, Preschool, etc. You name it, we’ve done it! Last year I was even asked to be a part of our local preschool’s board thinking it would help fill the void I’ve been feeling for awhile now. I needed more purpose. I had fire and drive in my soul that NEEDED to be put to use!!!!
After having my 3rd child I thought finally losing the baby weight and getting my body back onto a healthier pattern would be my missing link. I started the 21 day fix and fell in love with Beachbody. I went from a size 10 to a size 4. I have lost 25 pounds since October 2014 and have kept it off. I learned a lot about healthy eating, portion control and support. My love for the 21 day fix quickly turned into a passion for helping others achieve the same feeling I was feeling, the feeling of being ALIVE AGAIN! Actually enjoying what I see in the mirror. Not struggling with my clothes and getting upset each and every time I had to get dressed.
I became a Beachbody Coach at the end of October 2014 and haven’t looked back. What started out as a fun hobby to help keep me accountable on my own health and fitness journey opened my eyes to the ability to have an at home business. Don’t get me wrong, my first paycheck was $32 and change! This was definitely not get rich quick scheme. As time went on and I shared my story I started to help and inspire others. I was shocked at the response! I was starting to build a following, a team and an income with a passion I had for helping others while getting healthier myself! Most importantly I found something for myself again. I think as SAHMs we lose ourselves a little along the way. We focus so much on our children and husbands that we forget about ourselves. Our dreams. Our goals. We put it all on the back burner for them. While I believe in taking care of my family, I also believe in taking care of myself. In order to be a good Mom, I also have to take care of myself. I have been a Beachbody Coach now for 10 months! I cannot believe how this journey has changed my life inside and out. I want to share this opportunity with you.
You may be wondering: What do SAHMs do that help them be effective Beachbody Coaches??
1. I share my story on social media, with friends and family how Beachbody fitness programs and Shakeology can help them to lose weight and get fit at home. I was spending lots of time on social media before, now I have more of a purpose for the time I spend.
2. I encourage women, as I encourage my children but now it’s on their health and fitness journey in private fb groups we call challenge groups, providing feedback about their progress.
3. I help my coaches on our team page, Team Progress NOT Perfection how to use duplication to achieve the same business success as me. We are busy Mommies, we need training and how tos!
4. I manage my time and resources to effectively get my daily tasks accomplished in a timely manner. Just as I do for my family, I plan out my day around playgroups and preschool.
5. I use and teach goal setting to my customers and coaches to help them achieve the results they are working so hard for.
6. I use my story to share my own personal experience so I can reach others like me who need my help. I was doing this on fb Mommy pages about motherhood experiences, asking for advice, etc. This was a way I can still do that but help other Moms on their health and fitness journey.
7. I use my natural desire to help others succeed in a new way every day. As SAHMs we put others first naturally, so helping others comes very easy to us.
8. I genuinely care about others! I lead with my heart just as I do as Mommy.
It is through a few vital behaviors every day since I started this journey that has has created my success. I control how fast or slow I want to grow my business. I set the goals I want to reach. I set my hours and choose my teammates. I work before my kids get up, during nap time and when they go to bed. YOU set your own schedule, time and effort according to YOUR goals!!
I am looking to personally mentor 10 women like me. SAHMs who are looking for something more for themselves but need the flexibility to be home with their kids.
