My Job

You can see me posting on Facebook and here in my blog all the time about being a stay at home mom. Did you know though, that I do have another job? I am an online health and fitness coach. Oh come on,  I know you've seen/heard me mention this before. Let me tell you right now that yes, this is a "real job." I work a business. I put in work, I do trainings (some live in person, some through phone calls or video chats, lots through reading.) I get a paycheck. More than anything, I learn, I grow and I help other people lead lives that they've dreamt of!!!

I have people in my life who don't consider this a real job. Those are the people I've spent all my energy focusing on. It's time to stop. I work hard, I work smart and I may not be the richest person in the company (I may be the exact opposite) that isn't what I'm focused on right now. Right now, I'm all about the people I can help!! I offer people my help, my support and I am waiting patiently for them to realize their potential and join me. 

I know what some are saying in their heads right now. I've done a number of direct selling jobs. Yes, it's true! I have sold Cutco, Tupperware, Mary Kay and Party Lite. Each one of those was in addition to the 45-50 plus hours I was working at either McDonalds or Speedway. They were fun extras for me and never meant to be considered my regular job. I didn't put a whole lot of work into running those businesses and with each frustration I just quit doing it. 

That was Jenni then and Jenni now is determined and recognizes failures as stepping stones, lessons learned. I'm not here to sell you a product!!!! I am here to help you be healthier and happier by showing you tools, leading by example, walking side by side with you through a journey that will have bumps along the way but someone to lift you off the ground when you stumble and fall over those bumps.

I have a desire to witness happiness in this world, in my world! I have a desire to inspire confidence and strength in myself, in my family, in my friends and strangers everywhere. I'll take as long as I have to in order to do this right and to help others believe. 

I've been having trouble deciding lately what to write about because I don't want people to be bored reading this, I don't want people to think I'm being anything other than genuine. But today, this is what was on my mind. I will get over the people who don't have an understanding of what I do and why I do it because once more what they think doesn't matter. What matters is this makes me happy, makes me feel more fulfilled and may inspire only one other person in the entire world but that one person will live their life to the absolute fullest and nothing brings more happiness than that!!!

Whatever is on my mind is going to be genuine and I'm going to write about it! I am going to be more me than I've ever been! I'm not going to be that girl who hides behind a pillow or cracks jokes at herself to ease her self doubt.
