Lets align โ†“ Holistic Coach & Dream Builder & founder of Team PushPlay-It-Forward. I believe I was brought here live life to the fullest & help others do the same. Confession: I used to sit on the couch and eat a half a Watermelon, plus oreo's 4 nights a week and wonder "Why am I not Skinny." I know what a struggle it is to START... and now I see that the struggle was EVERY BIT worth it ... to know that I am living my life feeling confident in my own skin & proud of the work I have accomplished! I have learned that in life, you cannot inspire someone to truly take action and CHANGE with words alone... You have to FIRST be willing to TAKE ACTION yourself and reach outside your comfort level to prove to them that it CAN be DONE. Because of this, I strive to be in a constant state of growth & spiritual alignment and surrendering to all new challenges. I am motivated by FUN, lofty goals and things that seem impossible to others, because I love defying the odds and playing by my own rules. If I could give you one quote about anything in life itโ€™s... โ€œHustle & HEART will always set you apart.โ€

Facebook memories really pulled up Carly: online fitness coach, 2018 edition.

I was working full time, traveling, planning a wedding, and apparently thought starting a business on the side sounded relaxingโ€ฆ

The business has changed since then. The instinct hasnโ€™t. Iโ€™ve always loved helping people see what theyโ€™re capable of and sharing what I learn along the way. These days, that looks a little more like branding than burpees. ๐Ÿ‘€

When I started coaching others online to stick to their goals...

I honestly wasn't looking for a side gig.๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

I was SO busy working full-time in my corporate job [which had me traveling the country] & planning our destination wedding. Most days I was overwhelmed, overworked & had very little desire to make my health a priority.

I was in a constant state of GRIND.

All I knew during that time is I wanted my body to look BANGIN' in my wedding dress. ๐Ÿ‘ฐ I mean don't we all, ladies?

When I signed up for my FIRST fitness program & started seeing results I didn't realize how big of an impact it would have on my HEART. It was like a light bulb went off- I knew other people needed this in their lives. ๐Ÿ™

So for me this journey started organically... just like I like my produce now. ๐Ÿ˜‚ ๐ŸŽ๐Ÿฅ‘๐Ÿฅฆ

I KNEW in my gut I had a responsibility to share the knowledge I gained with the world.

I started by sharing my journey on social media... It wasn't always easy. Lots of people didn't take "my new business" seriously.

I had to constantly remind myself that other peoples opinions CANNOT and WILL NOT dictate the direction of my life. Because then it would all of this would their life and not mine, you know? ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

Think about it this way - Have you EVER met someone whoโ€™s talking negatively about people all the time, whoโ€™s life, marriage, financial situation, career path you want?

Are they actually HAPPIER & more fulfilled then the person they are talking about?

I doubt it ๐Ÿ˜‰

That's why I'm still here I am 4 years later. Still doing that same THING- Only stronger, wiser and WAY more confident.โœŒ
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
So Let me remind you wherever you are in your journey my friend ... Someone might not โ€œget youโ€ , your passion, your ZEST for life, or new business venture...

But WHY would you let that derail you?

Especially when you have a CHOICE to share that gift you've been given! ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป

โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Besides the fact that it saves you a S**T ton of TIME just moving on and doing YOU, it also just freakin' FEELS so DAMN good once you just LET go and trust the universe has a plan so much bigger than YOURS. โœŒ

Of all the version of me Iโ€™ve been, I think the hot-mess mama, who is head over heels in love with her little, totally winging it and not giving AF what others think is by far my favorite ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ‘ง ๐Ÿ’•

Thank you SO much for all the birthday wishes from family and friends near and far. โค๏ธ

Celebrating this year found me at the top of a mountain (Anakeesta) in a beautiful city with people who are good for the soulโ€ฆ and honestly, that feels about right.

A LOT can change in a year.

Grateful for where Iโ€™ve been, excited for where we are headed. Cheers to another yearโ€ฆ new adventures, and trusting the path even when you canโ€™t see the whole mountainโ€ฆ.

ILY all ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿผโœจ๐ŸŒ„
