ARHHHH the dreaded part where you have to relay your whole life story into just a few paragraphs... This could be a complete book series the way I tell stories. I start at one point, and have five other short stories going along the way. Long story short - I am a mum of two girls (I was going to say little, however they are nearly taller than me at 4.5 & 2.5) and I am following a passion I have ha
d for quite a few years now. It wasn't until after my second child was born that I knew want I wanted to do. Starting my own fitness business to help other mums. We have all been there (maybe not all, but most of us). When the only thing we feel we are, are 'just mum's'. Not someone who is successful, not someone who is changing the world, just a mum. There was a period of time (and even still sometimes now) where I felt I was in limbo, meandering around not achieving anything. Yes, I fed the kids and made sure they made it through another day. But nothing that seemed worthy. After an emotional period, I sat down and wrote a few notes. That’s when things started to change. I had a very clear vision in wanting to help others. Mums give their everything – energy, emotions and time to their direct family 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. They also support friends, family and then there is mum’s who work as well (I take my hat off to you all). When is it their time? Is it when they need to p*e? HAHA (remember those days when you could go to the toilet alone?). Then the mum guilt starts for wanting some time for themselves, for wanting a break and a little bit of distance. Don't get me wrong – mums are grateful for the opportunity to have their family and this time with them. However, it is easy to feel you have lost yourselves a little during this period. Some mums are tired, feel alone and have lost the drive to give anything to their needs because they always put other’s first. I want to create a change. I want to support and interact with others who feel they are, or have been through what I have mentioned. I want to be able to give them that 'freedom' to do something for themselves in a healthy, active environment. Sam Turner Fitness is based on physical activity but I want it to be so much more. I want it to be about YOU. I want it to be about self-worth, about having more energy to give to your families (and yourself), about balance (emotionally, physically and mentally), creating control over habits, pushing your personal abilities and challenging yourselves. I want you to be the best version of yourself.
