I’m going to type this as fast as I can because I don’t want to second guess myself..
Not for
One
Second!
Here are some things I know to be true about me. I am passionate about people standing up and taking control of their lives. I am devoted to the life changing journeys not only of myself and of Meegan’s but to all of those around me. I have an innate ability to help those wanting to step up to the starting line of their own journeys whether it be the first time or the umpteenth time…
So I’m taking this show on the proverbial road.
(So scared to hit publish)
I’ve been alluding to taking the plunge on my own journey over the last couple of months but never truly allowed myself to say it out loud (except to Meegan) because there is so much fear in what I’m about to do. Here’s the problem: When you don’t say it out loud, when you don’t share it with the world, when you keep it locked up inside of you nothing will ever happen. Nothing. Those dreams will lay dormant in your heart and all those “what if’s” never get a chance to become a reality.
So I’m calling bullshit on myself.
In the next couple of weeks I’ll be launching “Coaching for your own LCJ“
(oh man can I really hit publish?)
An excerpt of the program: “Weight loss just isn’t about the physical weight we’ve carried on our bodies for as long as we can remember. Emotional weight can keep us from moving forward and finding the life we deserve. As someone who has lost 110 pounds, I know first hand how hard it is day in and day out to give yourself the permission to stand up, take control and go after what you deserve. Sometimes you need someone in your corner that just gets it. All of it.”
This is available to anyone, anywhere! It’s going to be Skyped based for one-on-one sessions along with daily emails. I’ll also be offerering a locally based program for those living in Halifax. I’m finalizing the 6 week program and the different package options for the personal weight loss / life changing journey coaching available to those that are interested. If you are one of those people please, please, please sign up for LCJ Mailing list up there in the right hand corner.
This program is for you if:
- You have a lot of weight to lose.
- You have already lost a significant amount of weight and want support moving forward from here.
- You want someone who understands to discuss the tough stuff (loose skin, the scale, maintenance).
- You just want to understand your relationship with weight and how it affects your life.
- You’re looking for a big gentle kick in the pants.
- Loving who you are in this body is not easy for you and talking about it makes you anxious.
Are you ready?
Am I ready?
I think we both know the answer to those questions!
This is amazing Tara. You are going to rock and help people change their lives!
Go you for spreading your wings and flying! I hope to find that type of courage in myself too.
This. Is. Awesome!
There are a million things I’m crazy proud of you for. This one might be one of the most important. This is your dream. And you’re making it a reality. And you will help so many people along their own paths and LCJs. There’s already so many of us that you help through your blog and just by being the most incredible example of standing up, taking control, and knowing what you deserve. Now you get to help in a super charged kind of way. My favorite kind of awesome from my favorite thing in the entire history of EVER!
I am so, so, so fucking excited about this. I knew from the second I actually got to meet you and Meegan at Fitbloggin’ that you guys were meant to be a part of the changes that I’m making. This is obviously the universe’s doing, because not only will you get to help other people, but they will also help you. You are amazing. <3
Nothing would make more sense. This is right.
Tara! Can I sign up for this RIGHT NOW? Seriously. Put me on your list right this very INSTANT.
I am SO PROUD of you for making your dreams a reality. I know it’s super scary, but no one else can do it for you. I know you can do it!
You are going to be already amazing!
It will be ready to go pretty quickly. Just finalizing all the details. Email should go out in a few days.
Congrats on taking the plunge, Tara! This will be an incredible move for you!
This is so incredible. I love how wiling you are to give of yourself to help other people. It’s incredible, and I SO want to be a part of it!
So interested in this…but don’t have “a lot” of weight to lose (not in the traditional sense) but enough that it makes me want to weep with the inability to start…
This is for anyone Ginesa, no matter where you are on the journey. The before. The during. The after. If something is preventing you from moving forward then you’re in the right place.
You hit “publish” and you are going to be amazing at this. The lives/people you touch through this program are so lucky to have you in their corner.
What a fantastic idea! Congratulations on your new endeavor. Go you!
Hell yes. Been waiting 6months for u to do this. Wanna know something funny. The other day when merganser tweeted me about the magic wands. I went in an waved mine wishing. You woulf o do something like this. You got this girl and do damn proud of u
Thanks FGM. It’s been a long time in coming. A long time in wondering if this was the right path (but knowing all along it was the only path).
Way to hit publish, Tara. You have so much to give to people and I’m excited to see you rock THIS challenge, too! How do we sign up for a newsletter or notifications for when you launch?
In the right hand corner of the blog is the Mailing list option. I’ll be sending out an email in a few days or so with all the details. Can not wait to see where this takes me.
I’ve been lurking and reading your blog for some time now. Hope you don’t get tired of hearing this (but here it is again!): You are such an inspiration.
I am a former skinny girl…..until I hit late 30s (now almost 52)…..I don’t have a lot of weight to lose, but I could stand to lose 25 or 30 lbs. I also need to work on getting into physical shape and your journey has inspired me to do just that.
I love that you’re going to share yourself with others….I hope that you will include folks like me who just can’t seem to care enough to push through and stay committed to taking care of ourselves….okay, me and myself.
Trust me, I’ve been in that “don’t care enough” frame of thinking. We deserve to get out of that once and for all.
Way to go Tara, I’m so happy and proud of you for putting yourself out there, taking the plunge and going for it. You have always been a huge source of inspiration for me and many others. I can’t imagine anyone more well suited for something like this.
You deserve only the best in life and to help others have the same thing!!! So excited for you and Meegan!
Tara, I am so proud of you! This is huge and will be huge for you. Your gift to support and be empathetic, while encouraging, is incredible. You are taking this life and making it beyond…for you and all around you. Good luck and congrats!!!
I KNEW IT!!!!! YAY!!!!! GO TARA!!!!!!! YOU HAVE SO MUCH TO OFFER!!!!!!!!
This is perfect! What an amazing new branch of your journey. 😀 I’m bursting with happiness for you!!
Best wishes to you, Tara, and kudos for taking a risk and pursuing your passion!
*UGH* I signed up then realized I have to wait til I get home to verify it LOL!!! I am so totally on board with this Tara!!!! I cannot wait to see you succeed with this!!!
you will do fantastic!! Good on you for going after something you want and I’m sure you are going to succeed at it.
Congrats- this is fabulous & I think you are going to be doing amazing things and helping fabulous people. Can’t wait to see where you go!
This is fantastic! I’ve been needing a good kick in the ass lately and my legs don’t seem to be flexible enough to do it myself. Can’t wait to hear more.
So proud and so thrilled for you! I know you’ll make this work, T – I have every confidence in you. No, if only I had that same confidence to stop struggling with the last 20 lbs….
I’m so happy for you. I sure hope you’ll keep blogging though. I really feel your words have helped me many times.
Tara, this is so exciting! Congrats on hitting publish and on pursuing your passions!!
Congratulations! There is no one better for this than you! 🙂
I’m so excited for you! 🙂
This is awesome! I am so glad you hit publish! And even though we are at two different places in our LCJ, your post about being scared to take that chance and fly really resonates with me. I am terrified to move forward! I am so excited for you and I think you will continue to do amazing things! I am definitely signing up 🙂
Tara, I found your blog through Dawn at PriorFatGirl and not only am I totally impressed with your website but I’m amazed and inspired by your weight loss and total life change. The fact that you’re willing to share that with others is great and I’m SO very interested as i’m in the beginning stages of my own journey and could really use some guidance. I’m anxious to get more details about your new program.
Great job!
