Beachbody Dream Team Elite Retreat Weekend Recap

 This weekend was seriously amazing... I can say I have been on a bunch of trips now with our team and company, and this was one of the best! The Dream Team is the #1 team in the entire Beachbody organization... I was blessed to be brought on this team 3 years ago and it has been such an incredible experience thus far!! Over the past 2 years, I have been an Elite coach myself (this year is going to be my 3rd), and being able to go on at least 4 trips a year and spending time with these mommies and amazing friends who lift you up is just so much fun and such a blessing!

Friday was the start of our weekend retreat in Bedford, PA at the Omni Bedford Springs Spa and Resort and I almost didn't go.. I was so ridiculously sick the Thursday night into Friday and had strep.. I literally took way too many Advil and Naproxen, couldn't even eat but drank lots of green tea, and slept what felt like my life away.   I did what I needed to to feel better and although I was pretty miserable at first, I sucked it up because I knew the experience would be worth it!! And it was of course!!

We had the privilege of having Jeremy Redd from Corporate to our retreat to give us some of the top training! He works with the 15 star diamonds (the highest rank you can get), and since I'm not quite at 15 and hanging at 12, it was really nice to hear from him and get some training and advice! 

We got in and had a nice dinner together and then went up and relaxed and caught up!
Got a pretty awesome gift from Melanie to use for the weekend....  
 We got to our room and we had a beautiful suite that looked over the mountains!  AHH it was such a beautiful view!! We had some pretty awesome PJ's and VS perfume waiting on our beds for us from Melanie!! Sorry I couldn't even wait to take a pic because we hurried up and put those bad boys on and went at it taking pictures and having a good time!! :)   But heres what they looked like:

This totally describes each of us!! We laugh, we smile together, we have fun... we are real, relatable, and its so much fun to just sit back, relax, celebrate all our success, and enjoy life!! We didn't get to this point by being serious all the time.. come on now!!  

WE ARE JUST LIVING LIFE BY DESIGN!!


Saturday morning came and we still do our thang.. wake up nice and early, and do our check in's, look in our challenge groups, and get our posts in!! Starting our day early is what makes us feel successful throughout the rest of the day!! That's just us!!

First things first, WERK OUT with my girl Katy!
Now, nothing else can be done before we get in a good ol werkout!!!  Did a little back n bi's and cardio with Katy!! Its so much fun having a workout buddy!! If you are wanting accountability, find someone who motivates and inspires you and team up to help each other!! We kinda rocked that workout by the way!
Morning at the Spa for massages and pools for a little relaxation and quality time!
Post workout means SPA TIME!! Thats right... time to relax our body, mind, and spirit!! Enjoy what we have and release the stress and tension!! Everyone has a different kind of stress, so if you ever have the opportunity to give yourself a little "YOU" time, its important and will help so much!!! 

After our spa, we all had a nice lunch together and of course we kept it pretty clean!! Im still wondering who brought those chocolate chip cookies though lol!! 
Once we had lunch, we had our training with Jeremy for 2 hours and then we each had 1:1 sessions with him to help us individually with our own businesses.

Fashion and Fitness: Prepping for Nashville, TN SUMMIT Training!

Prepping for Business Trip- Beachbody SUMMIT 2015 Nashville TN!

Ok, so I really love my job!! Who can say their job consists of working out, being healthy, motivating others, and traveling with friends and family?? I DO!!! Not always though.. As an ER nurse, I was working 12 hour shift... swing shifts, missing out on a lot of quality time with my boys because if I wasn't working, I was catching up on sleep because my schedule was so off.

Now, I don't have to worry about it! I make my own schedule, live life by design, and take every day as a blessing that God gave me! 

So prep time for SUMMIT! This is our biggest training of the year with 25,000 coaches attending this year! Pretty amazing!! We hear from top coaches in the company, our amazing CEO of Beachbody, and lots of amazing success stories with both physical and financial freedom just because they gave Beachbody a chance and took that leap of faith! 

Ok, so since I pretty much live in my workout clothes, this is MY time to live it up a little!! Dress up with my friends, go to parties, trainings, and I do get to go on stage in front of 25,000 coaches to be recognized 3 different times: For Elite (top 1% of the company), Success Club Legend (changing lives and helping people along their fitness journey), and for being a 9 star coach (have an amazing team that joined me on this amazing journey)!

Then on top of all that, I get to present on Thursday!! WHAT?!?!?! OMG Yes, ME! Kinda freakin out  over here! On a good note, I am talking about what I've done myself to get to where I am today as a successful Beachbody coach! So... lets get it done! Time to prep! Mentally and physically! LOL

Nothing like a good Mani and Pedi to relax and allow yourself to get pampered!  I don't do this often trust me! I usually do it on my own, if at all!! Very low maintenance and like to do everything myself.. my own nails and box color on my hair.... BUT.. Time for another change! 

THE HAIR!

Yup, I did it!! So I've always had long hair until last year when I cut it to support a very good friend of mine who was fighting Cancer.. which she won by the way! Doing this actually made me realize how UNIMPORTANT hair is!! Who cares if its long and wavy and full of beautiful curls! Short hair or no hair is just as awesome! It does NOT define WHO YOU ARE!! 

I've wanted to do this for a while, but afraid of what I'll look like.. then worried what people will think... Then the color.. YES, its purple highlights! Again.. afraid to do it because of what people will think... 

Then I thought to myself... what do I always tell people.. WHO CARES what others think! If they are your true friend or care about you, they will accept you for who you are and love YOU for YOU! 

If someone wants to talk about "I look unprofessional", or 'I'm a mom, why would I do that to my hair?"... Well, heres something for you... I am NOT on drugs, an alcoholic, or on house arrest.. I provide for my kids and family DAILY and give them the best life possible! I don't think a hair color or cut will change my parenting or professionalism! If it does, good thing I work for a company who is ok with expressing who you are!! :) 

Ok you can tell I've had things said to me haha!! Its ok, hates are everywhere, you will never please everyone, but all you can do is be unapologetic about who you are as a person and keep doing what YOU love and what makes YOU happy at the end of the day!!

Ok, so Im prepped and ready to rock for this week! Cannot wait to share my amazing trip with you all when I come back!!! :) 

*Ever thought of living life by design and working from home, motivating others while working on your own fitness journey?

From ER Nurse to Full Time #MOMBOSS BEACHBODY COACH!

FROM ER NURSE TO FULL TIME 
#MOMBOSS BEACHBODY COACH!

Deidra Penrose, ER nurse and Fitness, NURSE and FITNESS, stay at home mom fitness, high income fitness coach, high income Beachbody coach, 6 figure income fitness coach, top beachbody coach harrisburg pa, top beachbody coach  chambersburg, mom fitness journey, top online fitness coach, financial freedom and fitness, mom boss, successful beachbody coach, fitness coaches now hiring, business opportunity

Here are just a few things about me that hopefully can allow you to RELATE and be INSPIRED to do more of what goals you have in life, but may be holding back on...
I do not post about my income as a Fitness Coach because I do NOT want people thinking I am boasting or bragging… because that is NOT me… What I do want people to get out of this, is the potential for themselves to do more of what they want and not hold back because of fear.
Fear can be a “LIFE SUCKER"… If you can push past the fear and let BELIEF and HOPE take priority over fear, you can create a "LIFE CHANGER” for yourself AND your family!

HOW I FELT MOST OF MY LIFE:
-> I struggled my way through life as a child… not many friends (YES, I was one who skipped lunch to hang in the bathroom stall).
-> I struggled through college to get my Nursing Degree (BUT I DID IT)… I didn’t give up. Yes, I did have fun and party, but studied more than the average person because I took me to read the same thing over and over to get the point across.
-> Financially, I struggled... any money I would earn I would buy things.. I am a HUGE gift giver so it was;t going to just things for me, I was always trying to buy things to show my love.. Ended up being is credit card debt 15,000$.  To get through school was another issue... my mom struggled financially, so she helped with my summer classes, but the rest.. school loans $30,000 debt.
-> I Became A nurse and got a job in the ER… I loved it… BUT I came home not feeling satisfied like I truly “made a difference”.
-> I always had a passion for fitness and working out, but never “thought” I could ever have a satisfying job that would bring home income to provide for my family. Plus giving up all that schooling and school loans I struggled for... NOT happening!!
-> Working 12 hour shifts, weekends, holidays, and only having 1 vacation a year put a damper on my life. I felt I was worth nothing more and this was my life FOREVER… until I retire… at age 65 or older.

WHAT HAS CHANGED MY LIFE TODAY:
-> I started putting God first in my life. I realized NOTHING is more important than the man who died for me!
-> As I got closer to God, I grew in having more Hope and Belief that I am meant for something greater in life.. I HAVE A PURPOSE!!
-> I took 1 STEP in a direction that I knew people would judge me, hate me, block me, and remove me from their lives… BUT I knew my potential for success for MY FAMILY was more important than what others thought (hence having true friends).
-> That step was JOINING a company Called Team BEACHBODY. Yes, we are on infomercials, T.V., online, EVERYWHERE.. WHY??? Because it is LIFE CHANGING!
-> I do not work 12 hour shifts ANYMORE.. No weekends, No holidays…
-> I get at least 3 vacations a year and do not have to worry about asking for time off... IM my own #momboss! I do what I want and when I want ;P
-> It is a way for ME to stay accountable for my own goals— Yes I started coaching right in the middle of my own fitness journey.. BUT successful coaches come from having the right goals, mindset, and belief system, NOT the “perfect body”.
-> I stay home with my kids.. no more missing out on their firsts… events, sports, etc… I ATTEND IT All! I will NOT miss them growing up… because they only grow ONCE!
-> NOW… The BIG part.. when people ask.. you went from Nurse to fitness coach? How are you even replacing that income??

MY SECRET:
-> By having a passion for helping people succeed physically and financially, working to inspire others daily, and NOT GIVING UP… this happened...
->I have made my YEARLY FULL TIME Nursing Income (working for 5 years with my BSN) in less than 3 MONTHS of Beachbody Coaching! From $75,000 a year to $75,000 in less than 3 months!
Taking that 1 leap of Faith… Knowing I am destined for something great in life… feeling a sense of accomplishment when I wake up and go to bed daily… This IS worth the LEAP!

I am now looking for 5 other women, who sick of DREAMING, and are ready to start DOING… and PAY IT FORWARD TO YOU! 

I want to allow others to have this amazing opportunity that I was blessed with!
I am looking for MOTIVATORS, people who are NOT afraid to WORK, and people who are READY to take ACTION
I want to bring you on my TEAM and help you through your journey to earn a 6-Figure income within your first 2 Years of Coaching!
I know you may think… this is impossible, or maybe not for you… BUT you will NOT know until you DO IT! 
If you are interested in hearing more about this opportunity, please fill out the application below and I will contact you within 12 hours.

*Please note- Income is NOT guaranteed to all coaches.. Income is based on your effort and work put into your business. BUT, the sky is the limit and you make your OWN raises!*

21 DAY FIX EXTREME- MY JOURNEY TO SUCCESS!

MY JOURNEY- 21 DAY FIX EXTREME AND SHAKEOLOGY

Deidra Penrose, 21 day fix extreme before, NPC figure competitor, beachbody challenge group, 21 day fix extreme meal plan, top beachbody coach chambersburg, top beachbody coach harrisburg, healthy nurse and fitness, stay at home healthy mom, fitness motivation, fitness tips, fitness accountability, home fitness challenge, 60 day fitness program, 21 day weight loss programs

So here it goes... I'm actually tired of prepping for the figure shows right now.  After doing 2 in a row, I feel like my mind is not where it use to be, especially with food.  I binge more than ever, and although I workout like I am training, it does nothing for me when I have these cheat meals.  So I have decided it would be in my own best interest to take a break from my shows.  After doing 2 back to back, I put myself on over load.  I didn't hurt my body, but was honestly more my mindset than anything.  
SO I am really excited to just get back into my own normal routines with my Beachbody workouts!!
I always do so well with them because I love the schedules, 30 minutes of working out is not overkill, and I feel like a normal human being on a healthy regimen NOT DIETING all  the time! Its what I teach my challengers... It is NOT a DIET, its a LIFESTYLE! When I say that, I know from experience!! Diets are temporary... they do not last forever.  
So to be back on my normal routine is pretty exciting!! I feel free!!

The only way to keep myself accountable is to do what I do with my challengers.... Take my before pictures and measurements! I know last time I took pics in this suit, I looked much better, but I have to realize I'm human and I need to do this for myself!! So here it goes... this is a promise to myself to NOT look like this in 21 days...Not saying I look terrible, but compared to 2 months ago, geeze I look different!!

The time you will see my side like this!! :(
 Well, this totally gave me some motivation!!! GAHH!! Ok, now to start working hard!!

 Had a little Pre-workout and Post-workout pic---> 21 DAY FIX EXTREME = NO JOKE!!!

My breakfast was:
1/2 cup oatmeal with cinnamon
1 Shakeology
1 Tsp. Coconut oil---> This was a first drinking it... yea, its something I need to get use to for sure!!

I had another Shakeology as my last meal, Chicken twice with brussel sprouts, and a grilled chicken salad with my new spicy ranch as my dinner!!  Ok, I did add shredded cheese to my salad, but still within limits of my containers :) 

Seriously, this new dressing I made was probably the BEST dressing I have had in a while!!

HOW I Grew A Successful Fitness Career from my Own HOME!

Growing A Successful Fitness Career FROM HOME!!!

Deidra Penrose, Forever FIt, successful stay at home mom, successful fitness coach, top online fitness coach, beachbody coach harrisburg pa, beachbody coach chambersburg PA, weightloss journey, fitness inspiration, live life by design, healthy nurse, nurse and fitness, successful home business, extra income, financial freedom working from home, elite beachbody coach, mommy role model, healthy eating, shakeology success, fitness coach opportunity, mom of boys, successful NPC figure competitor

As I am sitting outside WORKING at home with my kids, I am feeling so blessed that this amazing opportunity was given to me just 2.5 years ago.  But many people think,  "I could never do something like that.." Well, Guess what?! I FELT THE SAME WAY!!

Now I want to SHARE with you how I got to this position in my life as a Home Fitness Coach!

As a nurse, I was working swing shifts, holidays, with 2 kids, ages  1 year and 6 weeks old.  I began my own fitness journey and loved how my body was changing.  I knew there was opportunity to create a career with fitness, but I thought, WHY would I throw away my 4 year Bachelors degree in Nursing to make fitness as a career?? Is that even a career?? That is exactly what I thought! 

Then I realized that as I was sharing my journey with others about how my home fitness programs through BEACHBODY and SHAKEOLOGY has changed my life!  It wasn't just the weight lost, but my increase in energy, decrease in cravings, decrease in bloating, improvements with my digestive system, and being able to create healthy habits that my children can see and one day, follow in my footsteps!  

I felt it was only right to help others feel this same way! As I shared this opportunity with others who were trying to find themselves through diets, diet pills, starvation, and surgeries, I realized I was changing lives 1 by 1! As I was helping others, I didn't realize that I was actually bringing in income to support my family and to help pay the bills!! My goal was to replace what we pay in groceries every month.. then I continued helping others, and it became an income to pay for groceries AND daycare!  

Fitness became a PASSION to me... I honestly can not say 1 negative thing about putting your and your family's health FIRST! 
Its about being the best version of YOU and inspiring others around you!

*2.5 Years later, with consistency and continued passion for what I do, I retired as a nurse and pursued my passion as my full-time Career!

I will say, I did not start full time!  I put in 30 minutes here and there, shared what I am doing to everyone I knew, invited others to join me on my journey, and most importantly, did NOT give up because others didn't approve, or were annoyed by what I shared! For those who made comments, UN-FRIENDED me (yes even people who were "supposedly my best friends") or talked behind my back, I knew those people were NOT true friends... So WHY would I give up on something to please them and not myself?? Do they really have an impact on my life if they don't support me? Absolutely NOT! I knew I would inspire more than I would bother! And everyone knows, that "unfriend" button is right at the top!

My success for helping others is way more important than what others think of me and I was NOT that person at one time.. I always cared what people thought of me.. that is until the reward of not caring came along! So, yes, we will have struggles, obstacles, just like ANYTHING else in life, but I promise, that reward is so much greater!! 

Now I am staying home with my kids after only 2.5 years of dedicating myself to my fitness career part-time... I can now live life by design! I control me, my business, my hours, my vacations, my office, my income, EVERYTHING!!

I am now looking for 10 people to join me on this journey to success and happiness! It's time to surround yourself with people who lift you up!

If you are you passionate about your health and fitness goals, love helping others, and are looking to provide financial freedom for you  and your family, please fill out the application below for an opportunity that will change your life as a Fitness Coach working from home!

Fitness Lovers and Busy Moms build a Business with Fitness!

As a busy Momma, Nurse, Wife, and fitness lover who now has reached a huge goal training for NPC Figure Competitions, you would think there is no time left right?! I mean, we know as moms and dads how your kiddos take away most free time, especially getting into sports!  Well, as I started reaching my own health and fitness goals, I found it a priority to keep my health on top... I mean without my health, my kids will not have a mother and that they need!  It is my job to be a role model for them so they can learn those healthy habits young so when its time for them to make their own decisions, hopefully they choose the path they were taught by eating clean, exercising regularly rather than living a sedentary lifestyle which is so easy to pick up nowadays.  

Deidra Penrose, top Beachbody coach Harrisburg, top health and fitness coach, online fitness coach beachbody, beachbody coaching informational group, elite beachbody coach, fitness journey, stay at home mom fitness, healthy nurse and fitness, nurse and fitness, Shakeology success, weight loss journey success beachbody, NPC figure competitor and nurse, bikini competitor and nurse, busy healthy mom, fitness accountability, fitness motivationDeidra Penrose, top Beachbody coach Harrisburg, top health and fitness coach, online fitness coach beachbody, beachbody coaching informational group, elite beachbody coach, fitness journey, stay at home mom fitness, healthy nurse and fitness, nurse and fitness, Shakeology success, weight loss journey success beachbody, NPC figure competitor and nurse, bikini competitor and nurse, busy healthy mom, fitness accountability, fitness motivation


Since I've been keeping my health and fitness a priority, I have found such a passion for this lifestyle. Its not that Im obsessed, but I've become very dedicated and goal oriented and to me, thats a good thing! I will say, I would NOT be in this position if I wouldn't have taken the leap of faith 2 years ago and start helping others while on my own journey!

As a nurse working swing shifts, weekends, and holidays, it becomes hard on your body and your emotions, especially when you start missing out on important events and holidays with your kids and family.  I decided, I need something that will fit my lifestyle more.  I want to be able to be home with my kids, watch them grow, and attend the school and sporting events without needing to switch shifts or call off.  The stress of having to even find a sitter when your spouse works the same shift and daycare is closed is bad enough.   

So my mind was so set on being that "average" nurse and mom who works that busy job and misses events was slowly making me think... "hey, I have been seeing what others do as fitness coaches with Beachbody as I'm working on my own journey, why NOT try it and go all in and see what I can do?"

As my family was totally against me taking a leap of faith and starting this ENTIRE NEW journey without knowing what could happen and risking my career as a nurse, I knew if I didn't, then I would never know my potential and always be just average.   My passion for helping others was so much stronger than that, along with my passion for fitness.  

As I risked my nursing career, I did it... I went part time, and started working part time hours just sharing my Beachbody journey as I was doing the home fitness programs, drinking SHAKEOLOGY daily, and motivating others to live a healthy lifestyle!

As I realized there are ALWAYS people who will need help getting healthy, why not be one of those people to make their own schedule, work from home, but be able to follow these people's journey as you help them? 
Why NOT make my own hours to work?
Why miss another holiday or important event for my kids?
Why NOT be limitless on my income for my family?  I mean, the more people you help, the more free you can be financially?? 

This is where my opportunity is given to YOU!

Since I was given this amazing opportunity to turn my passion for fitness into something so much more, I am so excited and blessed to be able to give this to others who may or may not be looking for a change.... I know starting my journey as a Beachbody coach working from home is allowing me to be the mother I always wanted to be, but also be my own boss, learn about social media, and help others from all over the US and Canada along their journey to success!

Starting Monday, Feb 23rd, I am hosting a 5 day Beachbody Coaching Informational group where my team Forever FIT gives you tons of great information about what we do as coaches, the investment with coaching, the amazing opportunities we have as coaches, and how to get set up with joining us on our team! You will have the opportunity to ask questions throughout the entire week to see if this is something that will work for you and your family!

Please fill out the application below for a spot in my Informational Group, along with getting a spot in my next 18 day Getting Started Right training as a Coach!  You will be learning about the business and getting training from the #1 team in the Organization!

Hope to see you there!

Checking in!! EEEEK!!!! Getting ready for a great weekend!!

One thing that drove me into working with such an amazing company such as Team Beachbody, is the opportunities that are provided to us to learn more about our business, better ourselves as a leader and person, and see the success stories both as coaches and weight loss transformations, and this weekend was even more special!

We were blessed with having an amazing location for this event at the William Penn Omni Hotel.  Finally a place big enough for all these people!! :) Did I mention we had a great photographer with us??! :)- 


Since our city of Pittsburgh is growing so much and we have so many leaders in this area, we were able to get the CEO of Team Beachbody Carl Daikeler and the creator of the 21 DAY FIX Autumn Calabrese join us for our training event! Not only that, we have  the #1 coach in the entire company with us (my cousin and mentor) Melanie Mitro! This weekend was totally filled with motivation, inspiration, and a drive to continue moving forward in this journey! Thats what I love about this company.. You are filled with positive people all around you and that drive to continue on a path to success!



 One of my favorite parts of Super Saturday... Success stories.. One of my best friends I've gained from this experience with Beachbody- My success partner... battled cancer stage 4 Hodgkin's Lymphoma and watched her fight through her entire journey... and she survived and sweat through the whole thing. Watching her tell her story is one of the most touching stories ever... Each time I hear it, I swear it gets better and better!! So proud of her for fighting so hard through her worst time in her life.  She is OneFitFighter!!! <3 p="" you="">

It was so motivating to be able to hear our own CEO of this huge company speak before us and talk more about our values and mission for this company and WHY we are really here.  Talking about the success we have made for thousands and thousands of people around the US and Canada and talk about some upcoming events that we are having!!
