So, as many of you will know, Madison has now officially left Unleashed Performance… for now!
Tomorrow she flies out to Florida to start a pretty exciting new chapter. She’ll be working on a cruise ship doing all things fitness and recreation, travelling around the Caribbean. Not a bad first proper adventure! 😂
I wasn’t going to do a “cringy” post because I know Madison will absolutely hate it…
But tough. I’m doing it anyway. 😂
From an Unleashed Performance and boss point of view, I’m incredibly proud of how far she’s come.
Maddy joined us straight from school as an apprentice, and over the last couple of years I’ve watched her grow from someone just starting out in the fitness industry into a fully qualified trainer and instructor, confidently running sessions and becoming a proper part of the UP team.
A huge amount of that is down to Maddy herself, her commitment, willingness to learn and the way she’s taken everything on board.
But she’s also been incredibly lucky to learn from the brilliant team of trainers and coaches we have at UP, who have all played a part in helping her grow.
None more so than Tanya Whittaker and her little sidekick Empower Movement (Emma) 😂, who have been instrumental in Maddy’s development, giving her so much of their time, knowledge and support along the way. A big thank you from me to the whole team, but especially those two. ❤️
But putting the boss hat to one side, as her dad I’m even prouder.
It takes a lot of confidence at her age to fly the nest, get on a plane to America on your own and start a completely new chapter of your life thousands of miles away from home.
She’s going to have some incredible experiences, meet loads of new people, see parts of the world most people only dream about and, no doubt, grow massively as a person along the way.
So yes, I’m a very proud boss.
But more importantly, I’m an incredibly proud dad. ❤️
I’m sure everyone at Unleashed will join me in wishing Maddy the absolute best of luck on her adventure.
Go and smash it, Mads. We’re all very proud of you. ❤️
And remember… you’ll always have a place back at UP when you’ve had enough of the Caribbean sunshine! 😂
