But I'm also going to spend some time answering questions and sharing an opportunity with you that I have starting Monday. So, so let's see who's on. Hey, Kim. Hey, Samantha. Hi, Jan, Janet, Joanie. And I apologize in advance if you've watched my lives before. You know, I talk to Facebook here, Instagram here. So I'm going to try to have the eye contact at both of you, but I can read all of your comments on both of you. Hi, Rhonda. Hi, Shannon from Texas. Hi, Deanna. Hi, Melissa from South Carolina. Hi, Domin. How tall am I? I'm five two. Hi. Hi, Cherry and Kenneth. Gosh, lots of you from all over. All right. So what I want to dive into and I'll get right to the point, get right to the point, is there's three things that you can start to change right now, right now that will change everything for you. In fact, you can create a whole new version of yourself, literally in any aspect of your life by changing just these three things. It's really that incredible. You can change your finances with this, you can change your relationship, you could change your business goals. But today I'm specifically talking about how this applies to fat loss and your health, especially as we're aging. So there's three things. There's three things and you'll want to write these down. So grab a piece of paper and a pen or a Sharpie or whatever you want because these things are your check things that you want to check yourself with every single day. They change everything for you. Before I tell you them. Now I'm going to tell you a little story. And I'm sorry if you've heard my story before, but I think this is really relevant to apply. I'm going to take you back about 13 years when I first figured out these three things. And this was me 13 years ago. My daughter. My daughter, by the way, I hope she's not watching because she'll be like, mom, really, can you stop showing this picture of me? Because my daughter looks like an adult now. She's 13. But this was her 13 years ago. And I'm going to show you this picture because, yes, I just had her. Clearly you can tell she's a newborn. There, that's my original dog, Bean. Maybe many of you know if you've been following me for quite some time, but I just had her. Now look at my neck, look at my legs. The reason I'm sharing this is at this time in my life, I'm only 5 foot 2. I gained 60 pounds when I was pregnant. Now, yes, I just had a baby. I'm not trying to say I wasn't pregnant. I had just had a baby. However, she weighed six pounds, little over six pounds. I gained 60. That's only part of the story though. More of the story was this was back in 2007. Remember what was happening in 2007 and 2008? Oh, it's pretty rough time. That's when our housing market had collapsed, stock market had crashed, A lot of people experiencing financial hardship. That's when I had her. And during that time I was also going through a divorce. I was going through a divorce. So couple on hormones, weight gain, going through a divorce, financial stress. I also had a job. What was working for me is I had a great job, but it required full time travel for me and being a new mom and knowing I was going to be a single mom, there was no way I could do that. So what was going on in my life at that Time was just a mess every which direction for me, it was the first time in my life I experienced true depression. I have an appreciation now for what that feels like when you're depressed. But I was fully depression and it was about four months that I was in that zone. And when you have excess weight, it makes everything feel heavier. Like no pun intended. When you have extra weight on you, everything feels harder. It's harder just to even move your body. It's harder to feel good about yourself, it's harder to feel confident. You, it's harder to get things done because typically along with extra weight, in addition to your confidence and your self esteem comes messing up your lack of your focus, your energy and your motivation. Everything starts feeling hard. And I know because I was super there. And when you feel like you're in that spot, it feels very hard to win. It feels very hard to win. If you are in that spot now, please tell me here, just say yes. I get it, I get it, right? I get it because I was so there. And this is my space where I work with hundreds of thousands of women in that space. So I get it. I get what that's like to feel like that when you're in that space and it feels hard. What I found then was information overload. So I remember being in that space going, okay, I'm stressed about finances, I'm going through a divorce, I've got to get it together. I know I should be motivated, but. But the last thing I felt like doing was going to the gym or even eating healthy. I just didn't feel like it. And when I would look up online at the time, like what to do, like what should I be eating, what should I be doing? What I encountered was information overload. And I know you've experienced that now. This was 13 years ago. So it's a little different than what's out there now. But if you are somebody in this position now, I totally get what happens when you go online. You start scrolling things and then you're like, okay, do I go keto? Do I do Weight Watchers? Do I go eliminate carbs? Am I no sugar? Am I intermittent fasting? It's super confusing. Or do I just take shakes and pills? Like you don't know what to do. And then to make it worse, as you're looking and seeing all this information overload, you start getting retargeted with ads, lose weight fast, do this, and it gets super confusing and it sets us up for failure. And I get it now. I can only imagine if you're feeling this now, how that feels now, because 13 years ago it was crazy. And I know now there's even more of that in the marketplace. So that's super confusing. So I'm going to simplify this for you right now. And full transparency. I sell books, I sell workout programs. I have a fat loss program that's opening up Monday. So I'm not going to hide that from you, that I am going to invite you, if you're a candidate, into my program because I do want to help you, but I'm going to teach you first because as I would tell anyone with anything, I would never want you doing someone's program or someone's method if you don't fully like and resonate with that person. So what I'm going to share with you tonight, if it resonates with you, I may be your person. If it doesn't resonate with you, then we're nowhere soft, right? So I'm going to share with you. So back to that story. So I'm in this position at that time and I couldn't even imagine what it would feel like when I was that person to be feeling good and thriving. I couldn't even imagine it then because I felt so bad. And some of you listening right now, I know that you get this and that's where you are right now. And I'm talking specifically to you because I know what that feels like. And before you go down this thought path of maybe I'm too old or it just doesn't work for me or maybe I'm different, I'm going to encourage you just to be open minded for this conversation here. Be open minded for it because there's three very specific things that you can change starting right now. They're going to get you going in the right direction. They're going to get you going in the right direction. Are you ready for them? Okay. So when I was in this spot, I had to change everything and I didn't feel like it, but I knew deep down from my experience in corporate and how I would help people achieve their goals in other areas that I had to change these three things. So I'm going to tell you what they all are and then I'm going to go deeper into them. So they are not diet tips. I'm going to be really upfront and they're not workout tips. This is a little bit different. This is going to tap into some mindset stuff for you, but this could be really fun for you. Okay? The three things are thoughts Actions and habits. But I'm going to go deeper. I'm going to explain that your thoughts are super heavy right now. Now, on average. On average. And this doesn't mean if you're now somebody that's dealing with anxiety or you get stuck on thoughts, you might even have any more. You might even have more thoughts than this. But on average, we have about 60,000 thoughts a day. Isn't that crazy? 60,000 thoughts a day, on average, we have as a human. And the crazy thing about that is most of those thoughts we're not controlling, we're not deciding around. They're just popping in our head and they're not positive. And if you start to notice what's going on in your head with those thoughts, they're all day long at you. Like, don't waste your time. You shouldn't do that. That person looks better than me. I'm too old. Like, it just start all day long. And then I have to do this, I have to do that. Thoughts, thoughts, thoughts. 60,000 of them all day long. So when we are up against feeling not great about ourselves, overweight, not confident, not focused, not energetic, and now we're having these thoughts beating us up in our head all day. Whoa, that really holds us back. So how do we start to change those thoughts? Well, the first thing is you start to recognize that it's even happening. And this is the start of that conversation. You're on here live with me and you're listening. This is the start of the conversation. We've got to start to change those thoughts. So you start by recognizing them and thinking, what thoughts do I need to start putting in my mind? Now, you've all heard of affirmations. You've heard of daydreaming, you've heard of visualization and journaling and meditating. But I'm going to ask you a little different to be focused with. What do you want to start thinking? And you could start by asking yourself, if I could daydream and be anything I wanted to be, if I could be this version of myself that's, let's say, size 6 or size 8, and I could feel more youthful again, and I could feel confident and I could feel like I can move without pain. If I could be that person.

What would I have to think every day? Like, if I was that person, what would I be thinking? What would I be thinking? If you were that person, you'd be thinking that it's possible, that it's easy, that it's effortless, that it comes to you naturally. So when you can start to recognize what are the thoughts that are happening in my mind every day and where do I need to direct those thoughts? You can start to change things. Now, this is not easy. I never said it was easy, but it works. And I do this with myself every single day. It's a mind trick. And the more you do it, the faster you learn to jump in and make it natural. But all of us, even people that look like they have all the goals that you want, they go through this. It's changing your thoughts and starting to believe in possibility, in potential, that this can happen for me, that's what starts to change everything for you. So that first thing I said there was three is your thoughts. You've got to change your thoughts and you've got to be deliberate about it. Because words become things. Y', all words become things. When you say I'm too old, that's what you start attracting. When you say I'm too injured, I'm to this. My doctor said this. When you start with that, you create what I call a false assumed truth, and you put a limit on your possibility and you just stay in excuses. Now, excuses feel very good. I get it. They feel good to say, my doctor said this. And now I'm going to tell my friends and they're going to go, oh, you know what, Amanda? That sucks. You know what, Susan? That sucks. You know what, Teresa? You're right. You're just. It's. You're too old. It sucks. That feels good, right? We feel good. We feel validated. But you know what? It changes absolutely nothing. It changes nothing. It changes nothing. So your friends doing that, they're in people pleasing mode. They're trying to make you feel better in the moment, but they are not being an interruption, and that's what you need.

I'm an interruption for my clients. I love my clients, but I'm an interruption for them because I see them in their highest potential. So excuses don't work with me. It's not that I don't understand them, believe me. I have a million excuses I could have every single day, including three major injuries I had last year. Every day I have excuses, but I know that validating those excuses will not make me better. So in interruption is what makes you better. So that number one first thing is your thoughts. What are you thinking about? What are you taking in? What are you believing about yourself? What are you telling yourself? What is that voice in your head saying? You get to control that. How do you do it? You fake it till you make it your mind saying, huh, you're too fat. Nope, not listening. I'm getting stronger every day. Your mind says, you're too old for this. Nope, not listening. I am just getting started. Your mind says, who are you to be going for this? You're not smart enough. Nope, not listening. I get smarter every day. I work on things.

Your mind says, you can't lose weight, stop trying. Nope, not listening. Anything's possible for me. That's how you control your thoughts. You start deliberately controlling those in the right direction. Now, I got that you can't replace all 60,000 thoughts, but you can start to replace some of these and you can start to focus some time. So if this is, I want you to start noticing through the day what is happening with this, but I also want you to start deliberately creating better thoughts. So, for instance, when I walk every day, because I love to walk, I typically will sit under this one tree that I love, and in a quiet space, I will deliberately think of thoughts that I want. I'm getting smarter. I'm getting this. I will literally sit there and tell myself that, in fact, on my phone, I even have a list of things, affirmations like that I will read to myself out loud or in my head, whatever. But I change and try to get those good thoughts in. So that's number one. Okay. Number two, I said there was three thoughts, actions and habits. Number two is actions. So with the actions, I want you to start asking yourself, if I was the person I want to become, if I was that person, what actions would I be taking every day? Would I just be scrolling social media or would I be reading and learning? Would I be chatting with friends that lift me up? Or would I be venting and gossiping? What actions? Would I be eating junk food? Or would I be eating foods that nourish me? If I was the person that I want to become, would I be active every day? If I was the person that I want to become, what would I be listening to? What would I be eating? What would I be doing? So start to ask yourself that question. Start to ask yourself that question.

And then the third part of this is your habits. Now, thoughts and actions, you've got to deliberately create those initially, but your habits become part of you when you practice this all of the time. So if you think of who you want to become, the version of you you want to be, and if you don't know, by the way, if you don't know, like the version you want to be at of yourself, think of somebody you look up to, like, okay, I want to be Oprah. I don't know, like, pick somebody that's a role model to you and say, what would she do?

So think of the version of you that you want to become or a person you look up to that's there and ask yourself those things. What are the thoughts? What are the actions that I would need to be taking? And what are the habits? What are the habits? Is this resonating with you? If this is, please say yes. Please tell me yes. So I know that you're clear on this and you're getting it. Tell me yes. And if you are saying yes, that you get this, can you give me an I decide, like, I've decided. Say, I decide that you're gonna work on this. Because I cannot help anyone with weight loss getting in their best shape or even their business goals, because I do both. I build bodies and brands. Okay? I do have two very separate businesses that I do. But I can't work with a client or help anyone unless they can get into this belief that it's possible. When someone comes to me and they say, natalie, you know what? Nothing works for me. Nothing's ever worked for me. And what do you got? How are you going to make this work for me?

I can't help them if they're not open to the possibility. Because that first step is, what are you believing as possible for yourself? If you do not believe something is possible for yourself, nothing will change. A lot of you say, hi, Janet. I see you. Hi, Kimberly. A lot of you saying yes. I'm so happy this is resonating, and I love Brianna. You decided. That's incredible. Okay, any questions you have about that, please ask. Any questions about anything, please ask. I am going to share what I have going on, starting Monday with you, and this is for you. If my message has resonated, if this message hasn't resonated with you and you're like, I don't even know what you're talking about. This is out there. I don't relate. This is not for you. So what I've got going on Monday is I've got my Total Body Thrive program starting now. What is Total Body Thrive? Well, for those of you that don't know me, I kill fat for a living. And it's not just the fat on our bodies. It's also what I call false assumed truths. And I've been helping hundreds of thousands of women do this with my method the last decade. And I'm good at it. In fact, I'm Willing to say, I'm the best in the business at this. I help people transform their bodies in a way that changes their whole life. They change their relationship with their body, they get healthy, they get fit and the next thing that happens is they want to step into their passion and their purpose. It happens all the time. I attract these women in my life. You're listening to me right now for a reason. This is something you might be looking for.

This is something you might be looking for. Now, my method is not a normal method. I am not one of those people that just gives you a download and I'm like, oh, here's a meal plan, just follow it and go. That is not my method. I'm also not the person that's going to say, just do these five exercises and you're good. I don't believe that. When you work with me and my program, we spend a lot of time on the stuff that I just talked about. And that's fun because when you change your mindset and you get what I'm sharing with you, when you truly see, see for yourself that this is possible for you, everything changes for you. And I know as a 49 year old woman here who is a mom who's been through hardship, who has had three major injuries and bounced back from that, who's led hundreds of thousands of people through this process. I get you and I get this method and I can help you with this. And I know what is possible, possible for you. I'm so vividly clear of what's possible for you. You don't even see it in yourself yet. So if you are open to the possibility, what I do through this method is I first start and I take you through this process. We go deep into vision and to changing these thoughts, actions and habits. And I help you identify what I call your false assumed truths, like what is holding you back from becoming the best version of yourself. And when I can crack you open there, which I will in this program and it's amazing after, and only after that do we start diving into nutrition. And I do this a little different. Yes, I give you meal plans, yes, I give you swap outs, all those things. But I actually teach you about nutrition in a way that's very simple to understand. So you know exactly what happens when you eat things like artificial sweeteners or why certain foods make you hungrier or why you seem to have cravings or my gosh, why, why you have that 3pm Drop off. I'm going to help you through all that. I get it. I get the food concept and I'm going to teach it to you so you know it in a way that you don't need me. So you can go out to dinner, so you can go out with friends, you can feed your whole family without worrying about, oh, I have to follow this strict plan. You'll know what to do after we get your mind in the right place and we go through the nutrition. I have optional follow along workouts for you that, that you can do anywhere. But this is not a workout program. I give you workouts in addition to it. But all of the results come from the mindset and the nutrition piece. This is an epic experience and we start Monday. Now if this is not for you, that's awesome. I just so you know, I have books in stores, I have programs that you can download, I have all that stuff. This is a specific experience. Total Body Live is an eight week process where I work with a group of. You live through this, meaning when you start, you fill an intake form. So your intake form, I'm going to get a lot of your background information, what you've been through before, so I can help customize this along the way. Then what happens is we all start as a group, we open up a Facebook group. You have community support there where all questions are answered and you'll have access to a membership portal where in this, I've strategically put videos and activities for you one week at a time that takes you through this method in a really simple way. In a really simple way. And then what we do is once a week we have a live zoom call face to face where I can see you, you meet the rest of the group and I answer all questions and I go deep with you. It's a two month or eight week experience and you get epic results on this. This is not for everybody. This is for you. If what I'm sharing with you has resonated with you. Okay, so here's what I'm asking. If this sounds interesting to you and you want more information, I want you to type the word thrive. Just put the word thrive on if you're on Facebook, put the word thrive. If you're on Instagram, send me a dm, a direct message with the word thrive. Facebook, write it in the comments. Thrive. Instagram, you send me a direct message. Just write the word thrive. And then what's going to happen with that word is if you're on Facebook, it's going to trigger a video from me that tells you a little bit more about what it is and it's going to give you like a detailed page that shows you exactly what thrive is so you can look it over and see if you're a candidate. Now, this is filling up quick. We start Monday. It is filling up. So if you know, you're like, I don't even want an email from you, Natalie, you're speaking to me. If that's you, then you can skip ahead and just go to this, go to this website here, www.total body thrive.com. if you go to total body thrive.com it'll take you right to that page. You can skip all that and you can grab your spot if this is for you. Okay. I want to answer questions. So tell me anything that you've got that I've missed here or I'm gonna. I'm scrolling back through any questions that you have.

Let's see. And if you're joining in late, you might want to watch this back from the beginning. It'll be live on my page after because I shared the 3, 3 things to start shifting to help you with everything. Let's see, questions. Okay. I think I've answered most of these. I tell myself menopause is my. Yeah. So Sherry, that's an example. Menopause is real, right? We know that. That's a real thing. We know hormones shift, but the meaning we put on it is not real. So the way you know that something's a false assumed truth and that you're limiting your belief is when there's somebody else in that situation that has different results. So like we're told by media or our friends or whoever that, oh, because this happened to you or because you're this age, you're supposed to have this happen. And then we start believing it and then we start having those thoughts, actions and habits that support that belief. But when we see that it's possible, everything changes for us. So that's why that is that first step. You've got to change everything.

Now, why would you do thrive with me? Well, I'm going to tell you. I am a fat loss expert. Expert. This is my strength. I'm good at it. You're not going to find someone better at this. This is my gift. This is my strength. And I do it different than others. There's a lot of people teach workouts, a lot of people that teach diet. All of a sudden I get it. This is different. I'm a coach on another level. I'm actually a high performance coach. So yes, I'm a licensed master sports nutritionist. Yes, I'm a functional fitness trainer, all of that. But I know something that a lot of other trainers don't know, and that's. I know how to shift your actual belief set in here and help you get empowered there. And that's why my program gets those extreme results. That's why Nicole here ended up working with me. This was her. This is her now. Because this is what we shifted. This is what Melissa did with me. This was her and her now. This is what my clients know about me, and this is what I want to help you with. So when you come into this program, more clients, this is what I help you with. Just like this, Terri, a lot of my clients come back for more. They come back not because they need to lose all the weight again or any of that, but they. They like staying in that zone of I want to be in this powerful conversation. I want to be in a place of creation. I want to be here where I know it's possible for me and I want to get re motivated. That being said, by the way, if you've done my programs before, meaning Full Body Reset or Fat Loss Academy, not my downloads or my books, but if you've done my full live programs like Fat Loss Academy or Full Body Reset, you're an alumni, which means you actually can come back to Total Body Thrive for a discounted price. So make sure you email us. So we can get you that link. So we can get you that link. Let's see. Let's get a few more questions here.

All right, let's say depression plus anxiety. Yeah, Jennifer, I get it. Same thing. That's. And that's. I share. I don't know if you're on. At the beginning, when I shared my original journey, I was the. All of that depressed, anxious, all that stuff. And when you're in that place, it's very confusing. And I get it. And it's hard. It's hard to be motivated from there. It's hard to navigate what's real. It's hard with information overload. And that's why it's not fair to you when you just get this, like, diet plan or workout. And we're not addressing that other stuff because without living in possibility and realizing that you can actually create different results from changing that piece, nothing changes. Now, I know a lot of trainers out there say that they teach mindset, but teaching it is different than actually getting you to a place where it changes. This is a different type of thing. And that's what I want to help you with. Okay, let's see. I'll take a few more questions before we wrap up.

Okay. Yeah. So to get it, you can go directly to total bodythrive.com or if you want us to message you with it on this live, just put the word thrive in the comments on Facebook, on Instagram, send me a DM with the word thrive and I'll know that you want the information on it and I'll send it to you.

All right, let's see any more questions before I wrap?

All right, all thanks for jumping in. Oh, I do see somebody's asking if about age. Okay, so no, Yes. I talk specifically to women in their 40s, 50s and beyond because I'm 49 and that's my expertise. But no, if you're 30, you can absolutely still do the program. If you're 70, you can still do the program. All ages are welcome, men and females. I'm specifically talking into a lot of the pain points that are real because I get the 40 and 50 year old mindset. I get that because that's me. So that's why I bring that up a lot and that's why I'm speaking, speaking into that.

All right. I see a lot of you that have actually joined Thrive and I'm so excited to start on Monday. I can't wait. I can't wait. Oh, oh, Janet, I'm so glad you said you're in. I cannot wait for Monday, Janet. It's going to be epic. It's going to be great. I can't wait to work with you and help you more in there. All right, all have a good night. Thanks so much for joining me live today. Bye.
