The Academy Part II: Success=Effort!
Image: captured by Dartz Images.
This is my second blog in which I share various vlog (video diary) entries that I recorded in November 2018 whilst studying at the Fitness & Business Academy before I was successfully assigned on a ship. I'm currently at sea travelling around the world on a 5 star Luxury cruise ship, as a Holistic Health Coach/Personal Trainer for the guests onboard.
From day one at the Academy in November 2018, I decided that I wanted to document my journey through videos and writing because I could feel in my spirit that this journey was something bigger and more meaningful than just a sequence of events. I decided that once again my story was somehow going to impact someone else out there, to motivate them that you can go through some stuff honey – oh you can...BUT you can rise through what others may see as “ashes” and make something out of those ashes – something that shines so bright like a star!
Below follows my vlog entries with the topics highlighted above the image of each vlog. Please click on the image or the highlighted link to view the video. Please note that these are just me, raw, "Tee to the core" and many of them recorded super early in the morning LOL...so you know the deal with having a tired face, and no makeup etc!
There is no need for me to write much in this blog but for you to view and hopefully feel the emotions that I went through as I learnt and grew stronger with each day. And some days were horrible days, so you will see in the videos that I would just say I’m having a crappy day...but I’m so grateful to God that no matter what I’ve been through – I’ve been able to rise each time. His grace is more than sufficient!

I was doing well, but the hustle was real LOL! I was close to giving up, but I had come too far in the process to give up. In the vlog I talk about the ship being my only option. The reason is because I had left my marriage months before and the events of what had happened in that marriage had shattered my confidence. I needed the ship journey to just get away and rediscover myself. I will vlog about this when I feel ready to share later on. Again, it didn’t take me long to rise - so there is an amazing positivity to this story (look at God work)!! Looking back, I think wow 9 months later – look where I am. I found my flow with my classes and seminars onboard, and love doing what I do onboard - whilst also inspiring the Fitness To A Tee online community around the world!
Practising for our Cycle exam at 10 pm after starting the day at 5am. I loved the group I was in, in the Academy. We kept each other going boom!

A snippet of some of the moves I would include in my short 15 minutes daily workouts below. I would always focus on a different body part each day, so as not to fatigue my body with all the studies and exercise I would do in my classes as I qualified to become a Pilates, Yoga, Cycle and Stretch & Release Coach.
