I thought that today would be a great day to share with you a deeper look into the timeline of my life. Even though I do share a lot with you about the trials, difficulties, and uncertainties that I’ve had to overcome, I haven’t gotten down to the granules. I’ve done so much work around old stories, and I’ve worked really hard at reframing my mindset so that I can live in present and not in a space of lack. Today, I’m opening up even more to share with you just what my journey has looked like so far!

These women are so inspirational, and this episode is filled with juicy goodness– you’re going to LOVE it. Today, we dive straight into the good stuff and talk about what it’s been like building an empire together, how I met them right at the start of their incredible creation, and so much more.

Fate first introduced the triathlete and former sports model and host to then, personal trainer, Katrina Scott, at a Manhattan Beach gym in 2008. Inspiration and passion collided, and the girls started filming fitness videos for YouTube. The channel gained increasing attention from women across the country who became dedicated to their new trainers. Taking the world by storm with their fresh, fun, and friendly approach, Dawn and Scott built the Tone It Up lifestyle brand and community, a large and loyal network of like minded women. This inspiring, energetic “friend-to-friend" approach to fitness has made Tone It Up the go-to, one stop destination for women seeking a fun, unique approach to achieving their best self.

She completed her first half-marathon at 12-years-old and some of her earliest memories include watching her mom workout to Jane Fonda videos in their living room – she even filmed her own workout video on VHS for a 1st grade class project. After her youth became full of turmoil due to her mothers mental illness, Dawn went through 10 years of severe depression and escape into drug abuse. In her early 20's she was ready to regain her life and live in love rather than fear. She rediscovered fitness and the memories of how it made her feel. Dawn began using triathlon as her therapy.

This inspiring, energetic “friend-to-friend" approach to fitness has made Tone It Up the go-to, one stop destination for women seeking a fun, unique approach to achieving their best self.
Born and raised in New Hampshire, Scott found fitness at a young age, which shaped her life.

Scott began creating workouts and meal plans from magazines and nutrition books before beginning her career at a vitamin store.
Learning about nutrition and exercise inspired her to earn her bachelors degree her degree in Health Promotion and Fitness from Keene State College, where she studied Exercise Science, Sports Nutrition, Pre and Postnatal Wellness, and also earned her first certification in Group Fitness. After graduating, she worked as a Master Trainer and Fitness Instructor in Boston and started creating fitness videos.

Today I’m talking about the duality of the light and the dark that we all have inside of us. It is so important to accept and understand that both are part of you, and help make you who you are deep down. This is what makes us human! In a book that I’ve been reading, the author brought up a story that served as a really beautiful reminder that while yes, we do have that light and dark with us, the one that shows up most often is the one that we feed.

Last year, even though incredible, was a year of burnout for me. I’m excited to say that I’m starting to feel like I’m back in my groove, and I’ve really found power in saying no. Saying no isn’t necessarily because I don’t want to do something, but because I want to create more space. Creating space takes work! Often times, setting these boundaries actually feels like you’re doing the wrong thing because you aren’t doing what others are doing. Today, I’m getting real and honest about what this space looks like and what you need to do in order to prepare for the next steps in your life and business.

Today’s quickie is a special one because I am sitting down with James Purpura, the co-founder and CEO of Powerful U, a personal evolution company with the goal to inspire people to tap into their potential. James’s story is a beautiful one of incredible transformation, growth, and perseverance, and I can’t wait for you to listen in on the conversation we have today. Chris and I will be speaking at the Powerful U conference, and have an amazing ticket price for all of our listeners– you don’t want to miss this one!
James and Steph’s journey of transformation is nothing short of extraordinary. Before they met 15 years ago, both of their lives had hit rock bottom. They were both financially, emotionally, and spiritually bankrupt. Life had beaten them down and shattered their self-esteem. At the lowest point in their lives, they met and were united by a shared vision of creating and becoming more. They started the only place they could by working on themselves and helping each other grow. They believed in each other but more importantly, they challenged each other every step of the way, and never settled.
Shortly after meeting, Steph wrote James’ first resume and taught him how to send an email. This began James’ unlikely career in technology. Around this time, they also started a family. Fast forward fifteen years, after many ups and downs and a lot of hard work, Steph and James recently sold their tech company, one of the world’s largest construction software companies. They now have five beautiful children and live an extraordinary life. Through this journey of self-creation, they developed a personal philosophy centered around perception. They believe perception, more than any other factor, will determine how someone’s life will turn out. James and Steph started Powerful U as their way to give back to the world. They believe that through the knowledge they accumulated on their journey they can help others live the life they desire. Their dream is to bring personal development to the masses by making it affordable and readily available to all seekers.

Jane Lu joins me on today’s episode! Jane is the founder of Showpo, an online fashion retail empire. Jane previously worked in accounting and corporate finance, but after returning from a year abroad, was inspired to ditch the “cubicle life”, so she quit her job to start her own business. She had always had a sincere passion for women's fashion online, social media and entrepreneurship– it’s no surprise that Showpo is Jane’s creation! This conversation with Jane is SO great because she shares her business failures as well as her successes. You’ll love this one no matter where you are in your business!

Through being disruptive in the retail space and capitalising on the use of social media, Showpo now boasts a cult social following of over 3.3 million engaged followers collectively and has a team of over 90 across Sydney HQ and Distribution Center. A regular keynote speaker, for some of Australia’s biggest brands and having fronted stages for audiences internationally, Lu’s expertise is unparalleled, and her tone of voice, is real and relatable. A prominent figure in the Australian start up scene, Lu has been nominated for numerous awards,taking home taking the title of Cosmopolitan’s Entrepreneur of the Year in 2015 and Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia in 2016.
Lu’s personal experiences led her to build her own entrepreneurial community, Like Minded Bitches Drinking Wine, which she co-founded with serial entrepreneur, Gen George. Together they have grown an active community of over 85,000 members. Bringing women together to hear (and give) real, honest advice, to be inspired and to join forces - all over a good class of wine of course.With Lu at the helm, 8 years since its founding, Showpo owns its status as one of Australia’s fastest growing fashion e-commerce retailers. Recently awarded the highly coveted Australian Online Retailer of The Year Award and is on track to reach its goal of $100 million in revenue by 2020 with no external funding.

Taking the leap into your purpose is a little bit of a loaded statement, because it can mean so much, but it’s important to not allow overwhelm to sink in, because it isn’t all going to happen at once. More often than not, we know deep down what we want and need to do, but we look outside of ourselves for the validation that it’s okay to want those things and have those dreams. Today we are talking all about taking the big leap into what you know is your purpose here, in this life.

Not too long ago, Sarah Nicole embarked in a journey to better her life, losing 100 pounds, working through inner dialogue, and finding value within herself. Today, she helps others see and understand their worth, love their bodies, feel less alone in the world, and be ok with life's little shakeups.
Question Highlights:
Sarah Nicole is a badass mama of 3 who likes to hype herself up in bios while talking in the third person. 5 years ago she embarked on a journey to get out of life's ruts and better her life. She lost 100lbs and went through massive life change with a divorce pushing her into new chapter of single motherhood. But like, a badass chapter. Since then, she met this bearded guy and he drank her poison and asked her to marry him. So she locked that down quickly and now they rock the whole chosen family thing! After struggling to find love for her body after losing all that weight, she worked through a lot of inner dialogues to discover the value and meaning behind self-love - and well, she thinks it's worth sharing about. By using social media as her journal, she loves helping others see and understand their worth, love their bodies, feel less alone in the world, and be ok with life's little shakeups.
