Sponsored by God :)

you guys.

I wish was standing at the top of a mountain right now talking to you instead of just typing this. I wish you could hear the excitement in my voice!

I have never in my life had a day like today.

Today. Tuesday November 25th, 2014 was my last "official" day at the Y. 

Up until this day I had been a little on edge, a little stressed out, a little unsure, and so much more.

Usually they have a going away party at The Y or something but I must've missed the memo but that's totally okay because God had a different plan for today!

Everything. EVERYTHING has fallen into place today. Wait. It hasn't "fallen" into place. God took his mighty arms, wrapped them around me, and placed these things out today. They didn't just happen. He made them happen.

By midday - I found myself sitting in my car bawling because of how thankful and overwhelmed I was by what God is doing in my life and the people He has placed in it. If you know me - you'll know I'm not super eccentric and balling in a Target parking lot is ANYTHING but normal for me. God planned every single detail of today. 

I would explain everything that happened today - but you might not be as excited about it as I am so I will just skip ahead to the BIG stuff.

1) I have a holiday challenge group starting up and had a goal in mind of how many people I wanted to sign up. As of today - I am at TRIPLE that amount.

2) I needed to buy a water bottle for a prize for this group and the EXACT FRICKEN WATER BOTTLE I WANTED was on sale. Heck. Yes.

3) I had coffee with someone today to talk about a networking group and God totally took hold of the conversation and helped us brainstorm things to do with my business, places to hold classes, marketing, etc.

4) Out of nowhere. Honestly. Nowhere. People that I don't even know are messaging me and asking me to personally train them. 

5) A friend text me out of the blue with a great idea for expanding my business into the surrounding towns. 

6) I HAVE A PLACE TO TEACH R.I.P.P.E.D. YOU GUYS!!!! 

I haven't even officially been an LLC for 24 hours and my life is changing by the minute it feels like. 

To every person I talked to today - THANK YOU. You are in my life for a reason. 

To those of you who have stood beside me this whole time and taught me that it is completely possible to live my dreams - THANK YOU. 

To those of you who have helped me become the person that I am today - THANK YOU.

To those of you that have helped me brainstorm and tweak my dream into becoming a reality - THANK YOU.

I don't want to sleep. I want to stay awake and continue to live this life for God. For so long, I was living for myself. The moment I decided to LET GO, and LET GOD - my life decided to change and evolve into something I never could've imagined. 

at 4:30pm this evening, I got a phone call that I will be able to teach R.I.P.P.E.D. at the Assembly's of God church in Willmar. I have been searching for a place for a while now, and to hear that I will be able to teach in an amazing facility was more than I expected. They will be offering these classes sponsored by "Amy Erickson Fitness" - which wouldn't have happened unless Amy Erickson Fitness was an LLC which just happened YESTERDAY. 

These classes will be open to ANYONE in the community. I will have more details after Thanksgiving. Just know that it's coming!! Class times are still being worked out - so if you have any suggestions - text me, call me, message me. Your input means a lot to me. 

I don't write my blogs to brag about my life and how awesome it is. Not at all. Life isn't always good, but GOD is. When we stop listening to ourselves, the negative talk in our heads, and the negative talk around us, and start listening to HIM, great things will happen.

Gut Healing Soup (That ACTUALLY Tastes Delicious)

Image
If you're anything like me, you maybe struggle from time to time to find FAST, EASY, NOURISHING recipes that the whole family will enjoy. Personally - I can eat something that doesn't taste that great if I know it has nutritional benefits. My toddler and husband? Not so much.. This recipe, however, was SO fast and easy - and the entire family scarfed it down. 16 month old, AND husband. I will list how to make this recipe step by step, and attach a link to everything I purchased. All you have to do is click the links, and it will bring you right there so that you can check it out for yourself! I mostly followed Dr. Axe's recipe from his book,  Bone Broth Breakthrough . I highly recommend this book. He mentions the healing powers of bone broth, TONS of recipes to make, as well as a few nutritional guides and challenges to try out! Definitely worth the money. I cooked this recipe in my  Instant Pot . If you don't have one yet - you quite honestly NEED one...

Every New Beginning

Every New Beginning Comes From Some Other Beginning's End I always have good intentions of keeping up with my blog but life gets the best of me. Its January 1st, 2018, and it's a Monday - so I'm telling myself there's  no better time to hop back on the horse than right now! Naturally, I'm not sure where to start or what I Want to write about for this blog, so it will likely be my jumbled thoughts about life, and maybe a slight update from the past year - so that I can read it again in the future. Essentially- this post if for myself, but if you find yourself reading it - I hope you enjoy! It's -20 degrees out, maybe worse then that - I stopped looking. Every year at this time of year my husband and I contemplate moving to a warmer climate. Staying indoors with a toddler is NOT ideal! Today, Ezra looking outside and said "Want to play digger in snowman" (he calls the "snow" "snowman" ....I haven't corrected him because it...
