Okay- sort of a “spin” on the ten year challenge. (9 years, so sue me)

And honestly, I don’t remember if it was 2010- maybe ‘11?-

Whatever. Mom brain.

The picture below is when I first started teaching group fitness-and had a packed class- (it took months to build-) .

But- I DID know this- it brought me SO. MUCH. JOY- .

but I didn’t think being a “group fitness instructor” was good enough, so I never felt like I could turn it into a career. .

I LOVED it- my energy, my passion was in it- but I LET THE FEAR OF OTHERS JUDGEMENT- (read that again....)

NO one was TO MY FACE judging me, BUT I let THE FEAR of others (maybe?) JUDGING me- stop me from pursuing it. .

And fast forward to me TODAY- 2019. .

I was about to teach a group fitness class (but no one showed up)

Nine years ago this would have killed my spirit-

BUT now, the tables have turned- .

NOW I KNOW this is my gift to the world- .

and I’m continuing to build on it- regardless of how many people show up.

Nine years later-

Different community, different class, HECK- different COUNTRY!

But most importantly- different Jamie.

(I probably still have the same clothes though) 🤪
