how I put myself back on the map
After I had two kids and was about to turn 40, I realized, that somewhere along the way, my body had changed and I was not happy with how I looked and felt anymore.
My husband gifted me the Steve Taylor coaching program, which I agreed to, but to be honest, it was nothing I was super excited about, at first.
It did not take me long at all, to become completely hooked, because I did not expect to feel so much excitement about putting the focus on myself again. I was forced to pay a lot of attention to my feelings, spend time on my body and be aware of how I treat myself.
As a woman/mother who has a job, runs a household and raises two kids, that is a very unusual thing to do. I started going to the gym on a regular basis, and loved how training took so much stress away during the work outs, but also turned me into a better mom and wife, just because I am more relaxed than I used to be. I love how my energy level is higher than it used to be, how I have a place and a way to release negative emotions in the gym, and of course, how my mom body turned firmer and stronger.
I learned how to improve my nutrition, how to plan ahead and therefore be able to spend the same amount of time on a more nutritious and balanced diet, and I love how good a healthy lifestyle feels. The fact that Steve did not just put me on a low carb diet, but taught me how to change some habits, enabled me to reach and keep my goals and changes.
I enjoy my new balance between the hamster wheel all working moms are running in, and the focus I have on myself.
I got many things out of my time with Steve, but the one I am most thankful for, is refocusing on my needs and not feeling guilty about it, because it not only benefits myself, but also those around me.
I love the process as much as I love the results.
