It Takes Trust
When I became a Personal Trainer, I did not know what that entailed. I understood my role as a Fitness Coach: 1. Assess 2. Set goals. 3. Write Program Designs, etc. That I got! It might sound weird, but I didn't know about the emotional side of Personal Training? Well, call me weird. Because I was very naive. There is something about exercising that brings out all of the emotional baggage. Personal trainers are a "safe space" for a lot of people. Who knew? I didn't!

I also remember sometimes crying while working out. Feeling frustrated, with myself or with life in general. The highs that I felt when I reached a new goal. The fear I felt when I thought I couldn't reach a goal! I am sure a few people on the walking trail thought I was a bit crazy... yeah, I woul...
