Driving to Freedom

with MJ Winn

Today I got to bring MJ onto the podcast, an author who has a gift for uncovering valuable lessons in seemingly ordinary but sometime extraordinary life events. Her upcoming book Dirt Roads highlights her many adventures. On this show she shares a great flat tire on a dirt road story. You will love hearing how she learns from her misfortunes and transforms them into ways to connect to God, and her true self.

As one of my clients MJ’s coaching calls always went deep, I love her ability to think beyond what you see, and wanted to share her with you. If you are one of those people who needs to stop doing the same old thing that is not rendering the results you want, you will gain a lot from this episode. We talk about the blessings in disguise and the shift from solely focusing on your family’s needs to learning who you are independently and the importance of showing up for yourself. It’s an empowering story to set you on the right ‘Dirt Road’ for your life.

Ep. #160 How to Use My Time Well: Balance Wak...

In this episode, I talk about the struggle of balancing “waking up” and “showing up.” Waking up is the thinking, reflecting, and planning part of life, while showing up is taking action and doing the work. I share that many of us feel stuck doing too much of one and not enough of the other, especially when life feels chaotic. I explain that this tension is normal and something we all face. The goal is not perfection, but alignment, making sure our thoughts, values, and actions work together.

In this episode, I share how grateful I am for the Boss Minded community and our recent New Year event. When everyone shared their biggest takeaway, one word kept coming up: structure. It stood out because structure is often the real reason people follow through. Motivation comes and goes, but structure helps us show up even when we don’t feel like it.

CHALLENGE TESTIMONIALS

Jessica

With just a 2 pound weight difference after 4 weeks, Jessica was estatic about her progress because look at the difference! She learned how to eat better, release stress, and gain confidence in not just her looks but her abilities too!

Erin

Having babies takes a toll on our bodies that’s for sure. With the Body Sculpting Challenge, you’ll learn how to properly engage your core with EVERY SINGLE EXERCISE you do. You’ll have a tighter, more toned core after just 4 weeks.

Jessica W.

Jessica surprised our whole community with her quick transformation. Due to health limitations she wasn’t able to exercise so she solely focused on her nutrition and guess what? She allowed herself to be the boss! She learned just how powerful our food is!

G. A.

A busy homeschooling mom of 6 exercised smarter, not harder (or longer or even everyday either). She followed my direction to exercise with a plan so her entire body could benefit. No more staring at a busy gym and wondering what to do!

Stephanie

Would you believe her "2017" picture was at 4 years post-partum with her 2nd baby and her “2019” picture was just 9 months post-partum with her 3rd baby? Steph is the perfect example of what a Fun and Sustainable lifestyle looks like. Learn the habit hacks that will work for you over and over no matter what life throws at you.

ME (Marci)

My own transformation has been mostly mental. Sadly I tried so many diets out there only to find that my mind was not in the right place so the physical results never really mattered. Once I learned how to really connect my mind and body I realized that living a fun and sustainable lifestyle trumps what you look like. You can love yourself NO MATTER WHAT!

Jessica

Each person holds their weight differently but no matter what you’ve been born with you can find a way to make your nutrition and movement work for you!

Liz

Nothing makes a transformation look more amazing than confidence! Abs don’t hurt but the coolest part about Liz’s story is that she’s able to keep up with her busy lifestyle as a teacher and mother. Not only does she handle it well she knows without a doubt how dang good she looks!
