Hi! Welcome to my Team Beachbody coaching page! Thanks for stopping by!

I'm a 49 year-old empty nester mother of 3: Eric 27, Audrey 25 and Luke 23. I also have 3 stepchildren. In addition, I have a beautiful (step, but what's the difference?) grandson who's name is Elijah. Eli named me "Mimi" and used to say, "Mimi...GO!" Hence, my screen name here at Team Beachbody =o)

I work as a Registered Nurse in surgery. For years, I've been helping my surgeons provide
patients with a "different" kind of transformation process. While I love my job, it does keep me
indoors (no windows!) much more than I would like. With Beachbody, I get the opportunity to
help PEOPLE perform and accomplish their own, personal ACTIVE body transformations! How
satisfying is that!? One of the BIGGEST and coolest things is that in THAT process, I also have been able to generate a supplemental income - AND help others start and build their OWN businesses so that they, too can start on the way to THEIR dreams of not only physical fitness, but FINANCIAL fitness!!!

From an early age, I was active and athletic. Dancing beginning at age 4,
competitive swimming starting at age 7, gymnastics through highschool,
diving in college, etc. I made a brief foray into the world of women's body
building in 1982 which ended just before I became pregnant with my eldest
son in Oct 1983.

For the next few years, it seemed like I was always pregnant. Still, though I
had my hands delightfully full with three little ones, I'd pack 'em all up and
get out for power walks as much as possible. While I managed to maintain a relatively
healthy weight, I was never consistent enough to get even close to being really comfortable and fit.

In 1997, our little family moved to Colorado looking for a fresh start. Our
activity level increased in this state that has a practically year-round outdoor
season, which was refreshing. One day I realized that I needed to set a goal. I decided that a mini-triathalon might be a perfect and do-able fit for someone like me. I dusted off my old 1983 Trek, started logging
1600m in the pool 3 mornings a week (by this time, I was working in an
OB/Gyn office, so had a later start), and got runs in during lunch. I cycle-trained on weekends.
Anyway....the rest of the story...
The tris were fun, I was back to weight-training and had achieved quite
possibly the best physical conditioning of my life -lean and strong. I was eating
clean and taking a good combination of nutritional supplementation. However, I didn't have the emotional and mental support and health necessary to maintain it for very long.....

In the midst of all this, my rocky marriage of 14 years crashed and burned for
the last time. All outside activities came to a screeching halt, only to be
replaced by stress, strife and fear.
By the time I got back to trying to "take care" of myself, I had resorted to
Ephedra- based "supplements" in a misguided effort to help boost my metabolism. Not only were these not safe or smart, but they honestly didn't do a thing to help my condition.

Over the years I've had periods of some fitness recovery. However, in December of 2008 when I came to P90X and Team Beachbody I was in one of the worst emotional, mental and physical states of my life. I was extremely depressed, in poor condition, not sleeping well...I hoped that P90X - and the support of my amAZing husband, Tim - would help me get turned around for good.
Guess what! I haven't been disappointed!!!! The Team Beachbody community has proven to be a wonderful, invaluable and HUGE factor for me - learning from others who shared my goals. I've been soo pleased and impressed - and honored - to be part of this truly wonderful company of PEOPLE and products!

In April of 2009 I began ChaLean Extreme - THIS has turned out to be my biggest - and my primary - program. I've continued to return to it time and time again.

Transformation story

I guess I'd have to go back to September 2004, when-- just 3 weeks after
finally marrying and moving into a new home with my wonderful husband--
our surgery department manager resigned. For some reason, it was assumed
that I would be willing to step right in, though I had no management
experience. The next 3 years saw the stress taking its toll on my mental and
physical well-being (I felt like I'd aged 10 years!).

Finally, in the summer of 2007 I mustered up the courage to resign from that
position and returned to a staff nurse status. Unfortunately, the damage had
been done. I had become.....a slug. It was a relief to finally have the burden
off of me, but now what? I tried to get going, and was able to make a little bit
of progress.

Then 2008 hit. It seemed like one thing after another, culminating in the
unexpected and sudden death of my beloved mother-in-law in May. I began
this downward spiral into a type of depression that I had never experienced
before! I was prescribed antidepressants in August - which did help some.
Still, try as I might, I just wasn't making it happen. I was really just kind of
flapping in the breeze so to speak.

In late October 2008, I found myself mesmerized by this P90X infomercial --
I just couldn't stop watching it. Within a few weeks, I did order the program.
I knew I would have to really commit myself -- no matter how beat I was at
the end
of a work day. I also took the opportunity to join Team Beachbody at that
time. Boy, am I glad I did! You can't even know!

Since starting P90X program - and then ChaLean Extreme (which is my primary program) -- I have found new energy and have realized the muscle definition and strength - and weight loss - that I was afraid I would never see again.

Sometime around week 8 or 9 (of P90X), I was laid up for 3-4 weeks due to illness.
Regaining the momentum I had attained, proved to be much more difficult
than I expected. I was beginning to flounder.
Then, I remembered: "Hey, I'm a Team Beachbody member -- I can get on
the message boards, and participate in the live VIP chats with Tony Horton!"
Sure enough, when I was in Tony's chat, he very graciously provided me with
the guidance I needed on how to best proceed with the program. How cool
was that? Couple that with the interaction I had with other Team Beachbody
members, I was able to dig deep and forge ahead. I regained that momentum I needed tp keep pushing play.
While I experienced a slight back-slide, this old girl got on her way again!!
Want to know a bonus?
I was able to wean
off of those antidepressants. Man, I love this place, Beachbody!
As a matter-of-fact, I have such high regard and respect for the integrity and
mission of this company, that I became a Team Beachbody coach, myself!

Again,
