healthy living inside out

I just spent half my life raising kids. No paycheck, no recognition, no societal approval, no grades, no achievement awards, no company-paid vacations. If I were to reenter the workforce, my Master's degree in North American Studies wouldn't be worth much as I can barely remember my kids' birthday, never mind historically more significant dates.
My skills as writer and editor might still impress someone, but that person can probably hire a girl half my age for a fraction of my hourly wage. In broadcast news, I might have to start as an unpaid intern. And while I have been our household's CEO, juggling sport schedules, carpools and piano lessons while cooking dinner, walking the dog and mowing the lawn, none of these skills translate into the journalism career I dreamt of when I was still in college. Can anyone relate?
I do have a hobby that I turned into a part-time job: group fitness coaching. I now teach yoga full-time. But please don't ask how much I make. My husband reminds me every year during tax season that it is not a job but a hobby.
I guess he is right...if you love what you do, you never work a day in your life. And I love teaching yoga. I know that I can help people feel better. That is really my WHY. I feel better when they feel better. Is that selfish? 
Now if only I could have both, a longer reaching influence on my students' wellness and a secondary income stream independent of standing in front of a classroom or commuting to private clients' homes. What if I could make enough money that the burden to provide is lifted off my husband and we wouldn't have to worry about retirement or college tuition? What if I could have a job without time or space constraints?
Enter wellness coaching...the profession is not yet regulated. Anyone can call themselves wellness coach. That's why I aligned myself with a well-researched program that is based on whole foods and vegan supplements to fill nutritional gaps. Ten years ago, when I was diagnosed with gluten intolerance, I needed help learning how to eat to heal my digestive system. It was Arbonne's 30 Days to Healthy Living program that taught me about how to live the healthiest, best life and uplevel my nutritional choices.
My friend Kris Dobler has been trying to convince me to become a coach. It took her 5 years of persistence...and now I am so grateful because this  program is a gift to all of us. I can continue to provide wellness strategies, empower others to feel good and have an earning potential way beyond a traditional job. I am dreaming big, friends.
