Myers Cross Training

I’m not good at sales…which would explain why I’ve never wanted a job that involves retail. How­ever, since I started work­ing at age 16, I’ve attempted sales sev­eral times. (Some­times, you just do what you have to do.) My heart was never in it, though, so even­tu­ally, I would always find another job and move on.

When I grad­u­ated col­lege, I got some awe­some advice: “Find some­thing you’re good at, some­thing you are truly pas­sion­ate about…and sucker some­one into pay­ing you to do it. That’s how you pick a career.” I remem­ber star­ing at my resume and get­ting frus­trated by what I saw. The only jobs I’ve ever kept & loved were either ministry-related or fitness-related. How would I ever com­bine the two?

Enter Beach­body. You’ve seen the P90X infomer­cial at least a dozen times. Or Insan­ity, Tur­boFire, Slim-in-6, etc, etc, etc. If you’re like I was, you’re skep­ti­cal. After all, when I first tried P90X, I had been work­ing as a per­sonal trainer for four years. Was it actu­ally pos­si­ble that a DVD could pos­si­bly be a decent workout?

In a word…YES! Being com­pletely honest…it kicked my tail! But not only was I sore — I was HOOKED!

I was work­ing an 8am-5pm job as a writer with a 30-minute com­mute and evening min­istry com­mit­ments, so get­ting to the gym involved get­ting up about 4:30am. Work­ing out from home allowed me to sleep in an extra hour — which makes a big dif­fer­ence! Plus, I was get­ting bet­ter results. Every­one works out harder when some­one else is push­ing you…even if it’s Tony Hor­ton on your TV at home!

So what did I do? Nat­u­rally, I started telling every­one about it. I may not be a sales­woman, but when I find some­thing that works, I shout it from the rooftops. {If you’ve talked to me three times, I’ve prob­a­bly told you about Shake­ol­ogy, Eat Cleaner Food Wash, Method clean­ing prod­ucts, Tweet­Deck, or Smash­box bionic mas­cara.) Slowly, I real­ized that was the miss­ing link between all of my other sales expe­ri­ences. I’d never sold any­thing I REALLY believed was the best prod­uct available.

So I took the leap, became a dis­trib­u­tor for Beach­body, and Myers Cross Train­ing was born — my very own fit­ness busi­ness that allows me to com­bine my pas­sions for help­ing oth­ers get both phys­i­cally AND spir­i­tu­ally fit.

Since I started two years ago, I’ve been able to help tons of my fam­ily mem­bers and friends lose weight, get stronger, increase their energy lev­els, and improve their over­all health — lots of whom are also pay­ing it for­ward by start­ing their own Beach­body busi­nesses. In turn, they’ve reported being bet­ter spouses, par­ents, employ­ees, volunteers…you can pretty much fill in the blank here, and I’ve prob­a­bly heard it.

I’ve also met & hung out with celebrity train­ers Cha­lene John­son, Tony Hor­ton and Donna Richardson.

Gone on a FREE perk trip to Kauai, Hawaii.

Met some of the most incred­i­ble influ­en­tial peo­ple that I couldn’t be more grate­ful to God for bring­ing them into my life.

Qual­i­fied for an 8-day ALL EXPENSE PAID Car­ribean cruise in March 2011 for me & my hus­band.
