At age 20, I threw out my back and now have two very uncomfortable bulging discs at L4 & L5. Cortisone shots, ouch. At age 23, I gave blood test after blood test because I couldnt figure out why everything I ate bothered my stomach. (Eating like sh*t probably had everything to do with it) Had ulcers and food allergies. Even tested positive for Lupus. False positive, thank goodness. At age 26, I lost my full-time career job and had no clue where life would take me. My relationship was not panning out how I had wished and I was one sorry, sad and lost gal. At Age 27, I realized that there are people out there who feel great, look great and are overflowing with positivity. There were people smiling everyday without even thinking about it. I WANTED THAT. Only I could help myself get the ball rolling. Do you want it or not Colleen? So July 10, 2013 I decided I AM GOING TO HAVE THAT. I had struggles and I still do but I am so empowered by my own decision to do BETTER. I reached out to the person that stuck out in my mind as The Happiest Person on Earth Elizabeth Gemmell Hartke. I started with a box. A box that contained DVDS, Nutritional Powder, and a guide to coaching. What did I do with that? I put T25 in my DVD player everyday for 5 days a week and started to feel strong and even noticed my happiness increase. It became a health addiction because I felt so great and empowered after each session. I was doing something right! Shakeology, being that nutritional powder that people dont understand why its expensive, has been THE game changer for me. I can eat normal foods, and suffer from virtually ZERO stomach issues. z.e.r.o. I have energy from natural resources in Shakeology and get more nutritional support than any food can offer. Its pretty much a life saver for me. Oh, and I only spend 3 mins a day making breakfast. WINNING! Ive also created a business that I can share with others and show them how to improve their life by helping others. I started with ZERO knowledge, I started from Day 1 of my workout just like everyone else but I STARTED. Thats all that matters. I am now well on my way to marrying my love Sean Michael and man do we have many adventures ahead of us! I will be able to spend time with him and create a life by DESIGN by paying it forward. Now, my life isnt about working for someone else. Its about working FOR me, FOR others. Makes sense right? I sit here now 9 months later realizing how all those quotes we read and life lessons are actually a part of my everyday life. No bullshit. Now I am inspired to stay inspired and pass that on to others. Being healthy, happy and motivated isnt a fad, its a CHOICE and a LIFESTYLE. If you are feeling even the slightest bit below HAPPY and AWESOME, reach out! I know what it is like to be there.
