Hey, 1fitfoodie fam! Naomi here and today we are going over why your job does NOT define who you are. Fitness defined who I was for 10 years of my life, even more so whilst competing. It was THE ONLY thing that people asked me questions about, wanted to know, or sometimes not even wanted to know but literally didn’t think I had anything else to talk about.
When I stopped competing, It gave me the space and energy to dive into other hobbies and other parts of ME that make me happy. Reading, traveling, coloring, spending true time with friends, exploring the city without baggies of chicken, ordering cocktails, cooking, LIVING…
I also had to work to rediscover who I was and what I liked BESIDES personal training and competing.
I felt that I had to reintroduce myself to some people in my life and while dating, I had to work hard to show them that I HAVE LAYERS.
I am way more than a personal trainer. YES, that is part of what I do, but it is not WHO I AM.
Now? I’m finding myself in this transition again as I am running 1FITBIZ and knee-deep into mentoring and business coaching other fit pros, something I LOVE, too.
I am still a personal trainer, AND a business coach, AND someone who eats ice cream, AND read books, AND so much more.
These are interests and expertise I have chosen because they LIGHT ME UP and at the end of the day, my job does NOT define who I am. I discuss why this is important and 5 reasons why your job does not define who you are. XOX
