My Story

Hi, I'm Tami. I wanted to share a little bit of my story with you that has led me to where I am today. I'm 38, I'm a wife to a wonderful man named Mark and a mother to 4 beautiful boys, ages 15,10,6 and 19 months. I stay at home and I feel more than blessed with this life I've been given. My journey has had ups and downs, and I'm a work in progress but so thankful. I've learned alot about myself and my strengths, as well as my weaknesses. I was diagnosed with not one, but two digestive disorders in 2008. I have Crohn's disease and Celiac. It took two years of searching and seeking to find out what was happening to my body. It was a frustrating and painful time physically and mentally. Doctors told me I'd be on a steroid medication for the rest of my life and would need to learn to live with it. Well, the fighter inside me came out and I knew that was unacceptable! I was not willing to settle for a grim outcome. Up until that point I had learned a great deal about health and how the body works. My knowledge couldn't have come in handy at any better time than this! I continued learning and teaching myself about food and exercise and how they affect the body. My health started improving drastically to the point of remission from the Crohn's. I was feeling amazing and wanted to help others feel good too but never quite knew how I was going to do that. I have had people asking me questions about eating and exercise for years now and I'm always so excited to see people transform in that way! I was going along great for the most part with only a few rare flareups and moments of fatigue, so I again sought out how to better my nutrition. About 1 year ago I came upon this drink Shakeology. It is difficult for me to find foods I can tolerate, I eat a very strict diet to keep myself from having health issues. So I thought I'd try it, expecting fully that it would be a "no-go" for me. There was a vegan option so that's what I bought. First off, it tasted amazing! Alot of things over the years have seemed like eating or tasting cardboard to me, and my food needs to taste good:) After drinking it for a while a began to notice how much energy I had and my skin was so nice. I even started giving it to my baby! I knew I had found something awesome. No digestive reactions for me, I couldn't believe it. I knew about the Beachbody Company and what it offered. It was helping people do some awesome things with their lives and it was so inspiring! So I did some research on the fitness programs and bought Chalene Extreme off one of my friends. I loved it!! I however fully intended to just go about my way and not pursue being part of the company. I was following alot of women on Instagram who were doing great things with their fitness and drinking Shakeology. Come to find out some were Beachbody Coaches. One evening I came across an application to become a coach. That was my "aha" moment. It was like a lightbulb came on. All this passion I had for healthy living and the knowledge I'd acquired through my experiences came together. I knew how I would help people change their health for the better. I wanted everyone to know about this shake I was drinking and how great it feels to be fit and active. So I applied and there was no looking back! This is what I was meant to do, and what I absolutely love to do. Thank you for letting me share. Tami
