Coach Summit was in New Orleans this year!! The BIG EASY BABY!
It was amazing! This is my 3rd Coach Summit since I became a Coach in 2014! Another EPIC year and event! I went to Nashville for the past 2 years and this years but this year we were in New Orleans! What an amazing city an an epic venue for this years Conference and Celebration!
Fun, networking, opportunities to learn and grow. Super workouts with celebrity trainers and more!
What is Summit?
Its basically like our Super Bowl!! Once a year, when all the Coaches in the company come together to attend an epic 3 Day event and Conference that celebrates our achievements in the business as well as gives us a chance to network and meet others coaches we work and team up with!
Summit Nashville 2015
My first summit was in 2015, I was just a coach for 10 months and I was ready! I was a brand new Diamond Coach in my first 3 months of coaching because I advanced rank during a rank push group! The Push group is something that helps you challenge you to goal set and push outside of your comfort zone! For me that is EXACTLY what I needed to help me focus and actually have confidence in myself. I could not wait to soak up the accomplishments WE had made as a team. Our team was the number one team in the company that year for the FIRST TIME! iI was really proud of that goal because I was part of it! My Coach - was awarded Top Coach for the first time!
I was truly honored to stand beside her with our team as we celebrated on stage that first year!
Me and my team The Dream Team in 2015
Summit Nashville 2016
I was so excited! My second Summit and I still had that fire!! I knew what I was in for and I wanted to take it all in. I listened to all the speakers at the general sessions and the workshops and thought to myself. Why NOT me? What is it they are doing that I can't?
There were all kinds of people from all walks of life. Lawyers, stay at home mom's, physical therapists, HR Leaders like myself, independent business owners there was not set demographic for what made a GOOD Coach. Some worked at this part time or full time, it didn't matter. they made it their own. I had been working my part time job in HR Leadership and Coaching on the side as a hobby, however,
I started to thing about what the possibilities could really mean for me. I could actually create a new possibility for myself. A new potential full time career?
I made sure I was at the front of the room every single session workshop and general session. I wanted to soak it all in! I was inspired by all these different people that made this a reality in their lives. “If they can do it, why can’t I.”
I started to push a little harder and set some stretch goals for myself like leaving my full time job to have the flexibility to coach full time. I had no idea what I was doing but I had the drive, to make it happen, and the determination to meet my goal.
Some of those barriers included I had a lot more to learn about social media, I was not at my goal weight. There were definitely people close to me that didn't believe in me at the beginning. Many thought I would fail or that this was a passing phase. Instead of listening to all that noise, I just filled my cup every day through personal development which meant lots of books, audio books and pod casts. There was an almost immediate change in me! I needed to develop the skills it would take to build a business, leadership and create a following in my business. I learned to Goggle what I didn't know or watch it on YouTube. My up line had trainings available too so I would participate in everything I could!
I put my head down and worked. I had a plan and I knew it would take consistency and hard work to achieve it. I was 100% on board
Summit New Orleans 2017 This Year!
In 2017 I was a Success Club 5 Legend for the very first time! That was definitely an amazing experience. We are given extra rewards, access to events early and more. My hard work and consistency paid off. But the thing is its all because I decided to stop listening to the nay sayers and believe in MYSELF! To actually follow thru with that crazy voice in my heart that told me it is possible!
The thing is, I was working full time in a Human Resource Leadership role, building a business on the side for about 2.5 years. I attended this years Summit as a Full Time Coach! Yes I RETIRED myself from 23 years of a corporate career like I had planned just one year earlier! That is what made this year that much sweater but my GOALS for next year that much BIGGER!
Seeing my name on this board meant alot!! Over 32 months setting a benchmark for myself and CRUSHING it every single month! It was a personal goal I set for myself that translates into hundreds of people that were helped to reach THEIR goals!
It was so amazing and inspirational, like it is every single year! The training at summit was incredible and I can say that I am just beyond fired up for all the new product launches to come!
Team Beachbody never ceases to amaze me with their product development, their innovations and their future plans for the company! Its hard NOT to get fired up when you have all this amazing energy around you! If you have never experienced it I highly recommend it!
For 2 1/2 days we get to workout with the trainers, Autumn Calabrese, Tony Horton, Chris Downing, Shaun T and more! Plus we attend trainings with Keynote Speakers and Top Leaders to help advance our business and leadership skills.
The parties are amazing they know how to treat us! The Success Club party was amazing and held at Mardi Gras World on the river. This is where they house all the floats for the Mardi Gras parades! They create them all year long- this place was off the HOOK!
Live bands and the who's who of Beachbody mingled and partied in this amazing venue that seemed to never end!! Oh and the Fireworks! Yep they had fireworks too!! Its really a surreal event every year. I always wonder how they will top it!
The Summit Celebration 2017
Once again we were announced as the Top Team in Beachbody 3 years running! My mentor and Coach, Melanie Mitro the Top Coach!!
We had the chance to walk the stage again this year which was so amazing to me. I know this has been a blessing in my life but to be surrounded by and to have my own success in this business is pretty amazing to me.
I dreamed for this and worked for it, so to have it become reality was just a banner moment. And I still have more to do!!
Post party and freinds! One of my favorite parts of Summit is hanigng with my freinds that I work with on line but do not see in person but a few times a year!!
Why not YOU!
Next year in 2018....
We’re racing into Indianapolis for the most important Coach event of the year! This charming city will be the backdrop of our 2018 event and it has a lot more than just racing to offer. Travel + Leisure magazine has rated it one of the “Best Places to Travel in 2017,” Zagat named it one of its “HOTTEST” food cities in 2016 and USA Today has ranked it the “#1 Convention City” in the country.
Get ready for Team Beachbody to take over Lucas Oil Stadium, home of Super Bowl champions, the Indianapolis Colts! You can look forward to 3 days of business-building tips, hot new product announcements and launches, adrenaline-pumping workouts, world‐class recognition, and much more to help accelerate you and your Team to the next level.
NEXT SUMMIT IS GOING TO BE TURBOCHARGED!

It is perfect timing because I am starting the 3 Day Refresh that day and we can crush it together through my support and accountability group!! 3 Day Refresh is NOT required for this program week but its a great way to kick off some healthy eating and get the nutrition you need for this week!
Secondly, there is a great modifier so even if you don’t like being down on the floor you can modify with Shaun T and he gives you that option. These workouts are like the best of Shaun T, his greatest hits!
THE WORKOUTS:
Insane Basics: Go Slow, form over speed, work through it.
Pure Cardio Part 2: It is going to be amazing! You don’t go to the floor at all.
Insane Weights: This workout is hitting the weights in an Insanity format.
25 Abs: 25 minutes of abs that is so ridiculously amazing that you will need to pray before do it!
BrickSanity: Asylum strength and T25 mixture and a lot of insane craziness!
Speed 4.0: Speed workout similar to what you did in T25 Speed 1.0 and 2.0
Dig Deep is how you end the week with a bang! This is BANANA’s YO!!!! This sounds like Friday Fight From Max 30.

30 Days of Shakeology

30 Days Free Beachbody On Demand
That is what I always LOVED about our programs- they literally come with EVERYTHING you need to be successful AND the individual/group support too! But all from the comfort of your home!
Beachbody on Demand ("BOD")
Beachbody On Demand has changed the game so to speak. There is literally a library of thousands of dollars in programming you can log into from a device. Who doesn't STREAM everything to a device or a smart TV with a click of a button BAM you have access to movies, TV shows you name it - Instantly!!
Apple TV, Hulu, Netflix, Amazon Fire Stick, Roku, Mirroring, YouTubeThese are household names!! Let alone that now its all moving to tablets and smartphones!!
So fumbling with DVD's went OUT a long time ago for me- every program I purchase I stream thru my Apple TV. I even have a BOD App on my iPhone so if I don't have WiFi I can save up to 4 workouts to my device and do them later!
What is BOD and how can I stream it?
Beachbody On Demand is a feature of the Team Beachbody Club that provides unlimited access to stream Beachbody's proven fitness programs. Paid Team Beachbody Club Members will be able to work out anytime, anywhere. Beachbody On Demand includes many of Beachbody's most popular fitness programs in the digital library, making Beachbody programs easy to access anywhere an internet connection is available. (iPad, iPhone, Tablet, etc…)
How will it Work?Team Beachbody members will automatically have unlimited access to stream workouts from a list of Beachbody's most popular fitness programs. Once logged into TeamBeachbody.com , Club members will select the Start Streaming tab from the home page, choose any fitness program in the streaming library, and stream any workout from the program!

Why Should You Care?
So why am I telling you this? Well, because times are changing for fitness as well. It is still the same process to getting healthy and feeling your best. You have to put in the work to get the results and there is no quick fix. But, there are now MORE options than ever to have access to the tools that can help you achieve the look and feel that you want!
Team Beachbody came into my life 3 1/2 years ago with a program called P90X by Tony Horton. Have you heard of it? It seriously kicked my BUTT and it totally changed my life. Every morning I would go to the bonus room pop in my DVD to my laptop and workout before the kids got up for school and I had to get ready for work. I learned how to eat clean through my coach and our challenge group. I found support in other people/challengers that were struggling to lose weight post while working long hours and raising families too but still needed to find time for themselves. I was forever changed because of the relationships built in that 90 days, my coach and P90X, Clean Eating and Shakeology. I know that the model of Team Beachbody Challenge groups work! I know that it is MY personal accountability and while it might not be everyone’s cup of tea it truly did and still does work for me and my family!
I am thankful that Beachbody is innovate and is constantly thinking about how they can provide the utmost support & accountability to their customers and coaches. I love that Beachbody didn’t dig in their heels and resist the change in times but instead embraced that our world is moving more digital and they have created this incredible Beachbody On Demand platform and all the programs that it includes for us to get results.
The Big Announcement

So in January, CEO of Team Beachbody Carl Daikeler announced a new option for anyone to take advantage of.
The Annual All-Access Beachbody On Demand Challenge Pack & MembershipTotal access to EVERY program available on Beachbody ON Demand, PLUS future releases. ($6,000 in programming people!!)

That is incredible!!
You are able to purchase either an Annual All Access Beachbody On Demand + Shakeology Challenge Pack for an insanely low price. This is an incredible opportunity for me to help YOU get even better results.
1 Year Membership to Beachbody On Demand (BOD) with all content included, PLUS future releases (one is coming in April!!)
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 the special price of $160 (Individually this run $270!) for the entire year (12 months) and there is NO monthly fee.
The points I listed above 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. That is awesome but the real reason I am excited is this. You can purchase this pass and together we can choose to start with for example, 21 Day Fix.
Blueprint for Success
So imagine this, you can complete a 30 day program and at the end of that program, we can have a discussion around what program you are going to do next!! And what a library of choice you will have! You have the personalized support and guidance if you need it not just for your fitness plan but for your nutrition too!
What your goals are,
What you have already accomplished; and
How we can help to tweak your plan to get you AMAZING results!!
Brand New Programs
Maybe you are just starting out and you want to try something no impact with simplified nutrtion like You v2! Read about this NEW program HERE!
Another Brand NEW program Shift Shop will Super Trainer Chris Downing will also be dropping in July of 2017 - you will have access DAY 1!
Options
The point is you have OPTIONS! Lots of them! You can then decide to try the 21 Day Fix because your feeling stronger! They you decide you want to add in more cardio? How about Country Heat? Or let’s say you have an injury that is preventing you range of motion completing the 21 Day Fix, we can switch programs and move over to the 3 week yoga retreat until you are feeling well enough to go back to your T25 workout.
The key here is options that help YOU achieve YOUR goals. We can mix, match, tweak and change your plan so that you do not lose steam, you do not get bored and YOU get the results that you want- THIS is the secret to continued success!
Calendar, Guidance & Support
Each fitness program through BOD has the calendar of workouts and what to do when. I know I needed that help- what do I do when?
Each program has a nutrition guide you can 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 and fitness.
I'm there right with you showing you how to decode your nutrition and fitness needs!
I love this option because it gives you flexibility and creativity. But the most important part of this whole thing is the SUPPORT! Sure, anyone can just buy a program but where you see most people getting results is when they have a COMMUNITY OF SUPPORT around them helping them to get results! That is where the magic truly happens! This is what has kept me CONSISTENT for almost 3 years!! Before that - NOPE. Try, try, try, FAIL.
I used to be that girl that went to the gym, that bought the membership on January 1st and VOWED that this year would be the year I would make a change. I truly did have good intentions, but by the end of January I would find myself making excuses, eating ice cream after my workouts and FRUSTRATED with my results. I didn't really KNOW how to eat clean or what that meant let alone that I didn't have to STARVE or eat cardboard to achieve results!! You can bust your butt at the gym if you aren't consistent or know what to eat, it is going to be WASTED time and MONEY for you!!
So this year is your year! If you are like me and you need structure, support, guidance and accountability then Beachbody might be your magic ticket. I enjoyed the gym but HELLO, I didn't have time to go and spend an hour there and commute back! Or I just couldn't make it during posted hours! I enjoy my own home space, and I like that I can workout when it works for me and around my schedule!!
I am inviting you to #1 take advantage of the All Access Pass and make me your Coach! Let me help you set some new goals to achieve your healthy and fulfilling life. 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 called Spring Fling on April 17th through the Challenge Tracker App.
You will set realistic and achievable goals, log your workouts, your nutrition and Shakeology daily through our app based program 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?
What is the cost?
The Annual All Access Beachbody On Demand Challenge Pack is specially priced for April at $160 which includes a 30 Day supply of Shakeology at lower than my discount price, an entire set of portion control containers and an entire YEAR of health, fitness and nutritional support!!
