The raw and real deal of a day in the life of a Beachbody Coach. We all have the same 24 hours in a day and the same 7 days in a week so how do some people manage to get it all done. OR should I say look like we get it all done!
I can tell you that I am not superwoman… I WISH! I definitely make decisions each day about what is most important based on what I need to accomplish for the day. I can’t humanly do it all and be everything to everyone so I pick what is the most important and I just accept that this is what I can do! Every night I go to bed and tell myself, I couldn’t of done a fingertip more! That is ENOUGH for me!
So what does a typical day at home with my kids look like?
For starters every day I set my alarm for 5:00 AM. I typically wake up after 1 snooze and then head to the kitchen for my E&E which I call my liquid AWESOME. I always have my clothes laid out so I am not fumbling around the room finding what I need while my husband is sleeping.
Next its off to the basement to hit play on my workout of the day. Right now I am doing Chalean Extreme. I am in week 5, I just started phase 2 which is the push phase. I am a creature of habit so I follow the calendar that comes with each workout to the T. I figure if a trainer and expert took the time to figure out what sequence of workouts that produces the best results then why would I try to do my own thing. After all, I am not the expert!
After my workout its off to the kitchen to make my Shakeology and my cup of pumpkin spice coffee!
I sit at the kitchen table and do my check ins with my challengers and coach groups, I check emails and write a blog post until one of the boys wakes up. Then it’s breakfast time for the minions! We always post these glamorous well put together pictures of our family. But lets face it, who the heck lives a life like that! Most likely Bryce is yelling at Landon because he ate the last french toast stick and Landon is stealing his toy while they eat. Sometimes the milk gets spilled or like this morning I banged my head off the fridge door while trying to get the apple juice! The kids just laugh and we move on! In the meantime, I start a load of laundry, clean up breakfast dishes, run upstairs to take the fastest shower possible while Paw Patrol is on! If I can get an entire shower without the curtain being flung open it’s a SUCCESS!!!
Next, it’s off to lunch! Today was ham and cheese sandwiches with a cheese stick and grapes. Each boy had a glass of water then upstairs to do hair and brush teeth! We headed out the door for Kindergarten drop off. This is the BEST part of my job the sheer flexibility to chat with a coach on the way to school. To give Landon a hug and kiss and wave good bye and then head home to play a little Uno Moo with Bryce MAN. We worked on our art project for his preschool class and played a few games before he took a nap at 2.

At 2 pm, Bryce hits the pillow and I rush downstairs to get on the computer. At this time it’s challenge group check ins, emails, calls with coaches and prepping for my team call tonight. I literally didn’t move from my chair until 3:45 when it was time to head to the bus stop. Accomplishing a few things on my list and then I move the rest to the evening!
Time to head to the bus stop for Landon and Bryce is still out cold. I walked into his room and this is what I found. Seriously this could be the best picture ever!!! My little man out cold with his headphones on and the leap pad still playing! I couldn’t help but snag a picture! I wanted to just sit there and stare at his utter cuteness.
This face at the end of the night- PRICELESS |
