The journey with Anxiety, Panic Attacks, and ADHD

"There's nothing wrong.."

That's what I kept telling myself over and over when we first noticed our oldest daughter was having some attention struggles.

She could NOT focus! I mean really couldn't focus. She was fine while she was on task. As soon as she wasn't there was no going back.
I kept thinking it was just "kid stuff" that she would "get through this phase" of not being able to sit still.

My instincts were YELLING at me. No. It's not just a phase, she's seriously struggling.

Her teacher at school would send multiple notes home per week about her inability to stand in line, be still, complete work, or even finish all of her lunch!
I noted every single activity the teacher noticed that she was having a hard time with. I noticed the pattern and we decided to get a second opinion. A professional opinion.

Within a few weeks we had her going to see a counselor outside of school. They did an evaluation(just a question and answer session) with my daughter and that lasted about an hour. They asked her about her emotions and basically wanted to know that makes her "tick".

She did extremely well! Answered all her questions and didn't seem nervous at all :) I am so proud of her!

After her evaluation, the next few weeks we spent with a counselor doing sessions and trying to connect where she starts to fall into distraction. She said it was evident that she experiences HIGH amounts of anxiety and we spoke about her "acting out" (what I thought was acting out) was actually moderate to severe panic attacks.

WHAT?! -that's what I thought to myself. How did I not notice this? How did I not feel this from her as her mother? How am I a good mom if I didn't see that from a mile away?

The counselor reassured what I already knew: None of it was my fault, none of it was my daughter's fault. But now we must take the techniques and steps to making life a smooth ride for our little girl.

A lot of her anxiety was triggered by school. So we all came to the mutual agreement that Homeschool was the best option and route to go with. We have found a program that we like so far! It best fits our family needs and Zoey's needs! We think it's going to exceptional for her!

Do you have a child that suffers from Anxiety, ADHD, or panic attacks? I'd really love to connect with other parents that know what i'm going through!

I will never PUSH my business on you

I posted a live video on my facebook page today about direct sales companies and why i'll never push my business on someone else.

Sure, as a beachbody coach I want to help AS MANY people as possible live the most healthy, clean, and fulfilling lives. But let's be honest. Not everyone will jump on board with my first invite.

I hold a number of different groups all the time. I hold support groups, fitness challenges, free groups, etc. and I invite my friends, family, and followers to them ALL the time.

WHY?!

Because it'd be rude of me not to! I took the opportunity that CHANGED MY LIFE & decided to pay it forward to other people by becoming a Team Beachbody Coach. Part of being a coach is inviting others to experience what i've experienced with beachbody programs, beachbody on demand, and Shakeology.

Seriously it'd be SELFISH of me NOT to share this with you! I would be holding back the opportunity to help someone change their life!!

-the postpartum mom wanting to lose the weight from pregnancy
-the military wife wanting to look HOT for her husbands homecoming from deployment
-the sick-stricken woman who needs to feel healthy on the INSIDE
-the college girl trying to shed the "freshman 15"
-the guy trying to bulk up

These are people I help on a DAILY BASIS! THESE are the people that need my posts, my videos, my honest opinions and MY STORY!
I DO IT FOR THEM!! not for me. not for a paycheck. not to scam...

..to HELP!
My live video today may have ruffled a few feathers but it was only because I was trying to get a point across and i've been given an AMAZING platform to do it on!

You may be one of those people that think we're just trying to push something on you. BUY this, BUY that. But seriously....HEAR ME OUT!
It may come as a surprise BUT... there are a TON of us out there that actually DO CARE to get to know you, your struggles, your strengths, and your needs. We just want to help.

even after all this YOU STILL MAY TURN DOWN OUR HELP, and that's okay. But don't put all of us in one bad basket. Give us a chance. You may be surprised at what we can help you with even WITHOUT a purchase!

If you didn't catch my live video I've posted it here for you to watch! Leave me a comment and tell me your thoughts! 

What is the All Access Beachbody on Demand Challenge Pack & Membership

If you follow me on Facebook you saw that yesterday was a really exciting day!  

Team Beachbody launched a brand new option for its customers and coaches called the All-Access Beachbody On Demand Challenge Pack.  It is crazy to think about life just a short time ago.  Streaming was fairly new and we were still hoarding DVDS.  You still went to Blockbuster to rent a movie. We would head over to Blockbuster and walk the rows of videos to find the one we were going to watch.  Those days are gone, you never even have to leave your house.  You can pull up netflix or Amazon Prime or On Demand and you are good to go right from your couch.  Times really have changed in just a few short years.  

Why am I telling you this?  Because times are a'changin for fitness too. You still have to put in the work to get the results and there is no quick fix, magic pill or match.  But, there are now more options to tools that can help you achieve your goals!  Team Beachbody came into my life 2 years ago with programs that WORK. Every afternoon I would pop in my DVD to my DVD player and workout while my girls played in the floor beside me.  I learned how to eat clean through my coach & challenge group. While it might not be everyone’s "thing" it works for us!

I am thankful that Beachbody is the company that constantly thinks about how they can provide the most support & accountability to their customers and coaches. 

So, the CEO of Team Beachbody Carl Daikeler announced a NEW option for fitness!

**The Annual All-Access Beachbody On Demand Challenge Pack & Membership which provides COMPLETE access to every program available on Beachbody on Demand, PLUS future releases. SAY WHAT?!

 So that means that every single program Beachbody has ever created from P90X, Turbofire, Insanity, 10 Minute Trainer to new ones like Cize, T25, 22 Minute Hard Corps, Hammer and Chisel, Insanity Max30, 21 Day Fix and Fix Extreme, Country Heat, Core De Force and more are on a digital library you can access PLUS... anything new that Beachbody releases you get INSTANT access at NO additional charge for an entire 12 months.  That is CRAZY!!!! Starting on December 27th you will be able to purchase either an annual membership or the Annual All Access Beachbody On Demand + Shakeology Challenge Pack.  This is an incredible opportunity to help you get even better results.

WHY is this so Awesome?

So I’m going to give you my personal opinion on the new feature!

 I love the All Access Challenge Pack because it gives you:

• 1 Year Membership to Beachbody On Demand (BOD) with all content included, plus future releases.
• Shakeology (choice of 30-day supply on home direct)
• Portion Fix (includes 7 piece portion control container system, eating guide, large blue container and shaker cup)
• Business Starter Kit Waived if you choose the coach enrollment option.
• You get all of this for $199 for the entire year  (12 months) and there is no monthly fee!

That is worth thousands of dollars and for 12 months you are getting access to everything that Beachbody has ever created plus anything new through the year. 

Each fitness program through BOD has the calendar of workouts. Each program has a nutrition guide to download, tracking sheets and you have me to help walk you through the program to make sure you are getting the results that you want.  This is not about just starting and completing 1 program, it is about moving through each stage of your journey and entering into a lifestyle of proper nutrition & fitness.

So this year is your year!  If you are like me and you need structure, support, guidance and accountability then Beachbody might be your THING!  I don't like working out in public, I enjoy my own home space, and I like that I can workout when it works for me and around my girls schedules.

I am inviting you to take advantage of the All Access Pass & make ME your coach!  Let me help you set some goals to achieve your healthiest self!  Whether you want to be a part of my accountability and support groups or not I am here to help.

I am kicking off my next group on January 9th!!  You will set realistic and achievable goals, log your workouts, your nutrition and Shakeology daily and I will be there 24/7 to provide support, accountability, guidance, recipes and meal planning to make this a lasting lifestyle change.  Does this sound like something you would like to do?
