Taking Time to Toot My Own Horn (Thanks, Impact Magazine)
A top trainers nomination that actually scored substance, and a rare pause to reflect on what I've built.
A few months ago I got an email saying I was nominated for @impactmagcanada 'top trainers' and I initially assumed it was going to be like all the others; 'share this / get votes / drive website hits for us and maybe we' ll tell you you're great' and I was going to ignore it.
Luckily I read the blurb about how the contest works... "scored on subjects such as education, certification, years in the business, philanthropy and community service" which was a nice change to see, so I took some time to reflect on what I've done over the years, something I (and most entrepreneurs) dont spend enough time doing...
Thank you Impact Magazine for reminding me that I should take some time to toot my own horn once and a while...
📯 I opened, own, and run a 7k+ sqf fitness facility with almost a dozen coaches and 300+ members and an incredible community like no other at @raincityathls www.rncty.ca/join
📯 I started (tho currently on hold) and ran the first 'beer league' bringing #FunctionalFitness competition to almost 1000 athletes of every level and multiple regions with the @functionalfitnessleague (it'll brb I promise)
📯 I became a government approved behaviour interventionist, allowing me to work with almost a dozen different kids (currently) on the autism spectrum both at Raincity and at schools with the @raincityfitclub
📯 I am the president of the BC Functional Fitness Sports Association @bcfunctionalfitness the non profit provincial sports organization (PSO) legitimizing the sport of Functional Fitness in BC, Canada @canadian_functional_fitness, and internationally @internationalfunctionalfitness
BUT to be honest the most surprising part of this article is seeing in writing that I'm 34 years old 🤯... Thank God I had some time to reflect on some accomplishments before seeing that 😅
Thanks to everyone who's been there to support me and my lack of sleeping over the years. I'm going to go have a nap.
