I've not always been an expert at weight loss. In fact, I grew up in an obese family and in my late 20s, I found myself 30 lbs overweight -- and depressed. Now, as I think back to the beginning where I owned my own weight loss center, I took some very specific steps to the #1 weight loss coach.
1) My first weight loss "venture"
I decided that I wanted to open my own business, and ended up buying a weight loss center franchise. I figured that this would be perfect. I could deal with my own weight issues and help others do the same.
Unfortunately, it didn't work that way. I had no idea how to actually lose weight and keep it off permanently. Sure, the franchise company trained me -- on their system. But they didn't teach my clients or me how to keep the weight off permanently.
I struggled on for 10 years, eventually owning 5 weight loss centers. Yet, I became more and more frustrated with the lack of results my clients were getting. 95% of the people who start commercial weight loss programs fail. And the record of mine was no better.
2) Discovering a new approach
But then I started to learn techniques that were not taught by the franchisor. I discovered that my clients' attitude had a big impact on whether they were going to be successful. I was fascinated and decided to learn more.
Since I no longer believed in the program my company was selling, I sold my business and set out on a mission of learning what helped people become successful in their quest for weight loss.
I attended workshops all across North America and studied everything I could get my hands on about how a person's mindset relates to their behavior.
3) The MindBody FX program and business system
Finally, I decided to create a better system, one where people actually would succeed. The result: the MindBody FX program. But I didn't stop there. So many people in the health, wellness, and fitness industry were struggling with the same frustrations I did.
So I decided to combine my MindBody FX program with a business system. With that new program, I could teach coaches, personal trainers, and other health and wellness professionals to use the mindset tools to create more success for their own clients -- and great success for their business.
4) Gaining visibility
My system was very different from the rest of the industry. This helped me get press as a weight loss expert and stake my claim to a new approach, with a mind-body connection.
I was featured on the TV show 180 Life & Style Makeovers, CNBC, in newspapers, and on radio stations across North America. I was also speaking to numerous live audiences.
Now, do you want to become a top expert in weight loss?
I recently did a free webinar where I reveal how you can build a 6-figure + income in the health, fitness and wellness industry by becoming a MindBody FX Facilitator. This webinar has been featured on CNBC, Fox and a number of other websites.
