Micki Pauley - Health Coach

💕How would you rewrite your story?💕
We all have a bigger story that keeps us from being brave and doing the things we know will make us happy.
If I could rewrite my story I would have started to be my own hero 🦸‍♀️ a long time ago- I would have not have allowed myself to develop stories of not being worthy of good relationships, success, or just being strong enough to be ME.
I am rewriting my story with myself as the hero and it feels pretty damn good. 💪🏻
How would you rewrite your story?? Tell me below! 👇🏻👇🏻

STORY TIME 🔥
I have always been a rather happy and energetic human being - I used to win the “happy camper” award at gymnastics camp a lot due to my incredibly charming attitude 🤪
However - I used to use these qualities about myself as a cover up in how I truly felt about myself.
“Wow, Micki - when did you get smart?” As my 8th grade math teacher handed back my test that I studied REALLY HARD FOR. Um, ouch!
“Congratulations Micki! You got an A on your test!” - classmates —> (Teacher laughing) “Um, no that is her brother.” - BURN. One of my high school teachers used to put up our first initial of our first names and then our last names on a board in our room when we got a good grade on our test. My brother and I had the same initials.
Not to mention my frustration before this with math as I was going through grade school.
Needless to say math has never been a strong suit of mine. I have always had to work so much harder in it than anything else. In college I had to take a “special” math class that didn’t count for ANYTHING, but only to say “oh, yeah she is smart enough to finally go into College Algebra. I used to define myself as dumb because numbers are so backwards to me! I would be afraid to take chances because what if I expose my real self to people?!?? GASP!
But, now look at me!! I am running my own damn business for goodness sake! I literally cried in the airport a month ago when on my way to my mastermind in LA because of how freaking proud of myself I am. Don’t get me wrong I still have BIG MOMENTS OF DOUBT, but my goodness I was terrified of feeling exposed, but I did it all anyways! And honestly, I am not afraid to say anymore that I am backwards with numbers and when I am learning I have to practice over and over and over. I am not a textbook kind of girl. It is why I love training so much. Everything I have learned and am still learning has all been from practice, not a textbook.
So with ALL OF THIS - there is a point - my strengths are different than others -
I wasn’t gifted the skill set of a math genius because I was gifted with so many other things - My strengths - compassion, drive, loyalty, having the ability to help others find their own strength and OWN IT, and building communities and bringing strong minds together - just to name a few 🤪
And what I am learning is that everyday I have to remind myself of these strengths because my mind often wants to go back to my old frame of mind of, “I’m not smart enough.”
Get confident in the strengths you were given. USE THEM as a gift to yourself and others. Don’t sell yourself short because of others belittling words.
YOU ARE A GIFTED AND AN AMAZING WOMAN. ❤️

Being positive isn’t something we just decide to be. It is a decision we make to work towards being every single day. As this quote states in the second half - “being positive is accepting that whatever happens is for your highest good.”
Being positive is finding the lessons and understanding they are there to help you grow! 🔥
Tell me about a time you had a dig a lesson out of a situation that could have easily put you down! I want to CELEBRATE YOU!

THREE MISTAKES YOU ARE MAKING THAT ARE KEEPING YOU AT A DEAD END!

1) Starting too much too soon!
2) Not having a strong support system
3) Not taking advantage of YOU being in charge of your life.

1) Starting too much too soon causes negative chaos. When we go from inactivity to all of a sudden 5-7 days of exercise, plus trying to meal prep, AND explaining to friends and family why you would rather stay in instead of going out for pizza- it causes a lot of frustration and confusion and a “I can’t” mindset. I use this as an example because I see it everyday. When I work with my clients I always have them start with one thing at a time. If it’s nutrition related and you know you are a soda drinker - then start there!

2) You shouldn’t have to explain yourself to your friends and family or co-workers every time you are choosing something different. Your support system should encourage you and not accept excuses. If they are allowing excuses and they have excuses themselves - they aren’t your people.

3)YOU are your own life boss! You get to make every decision- decisions on how you choose to ACT, on how you choose to REACT, and WHO you allow to make a positive or negative impact. We are so conditioned on waiting for someone else to give us permission or to validate our decisions that we forget the only validation we need is from ourselves.

Do you see yourself in any of these?!? Gosh, I see myself in all three. Just this morning I had a conversation with on my own nutrition. When I change a variable in my nutrition - I tend to change more than one which takes away from my primary focus.

So how do you know if any of these are keeping you stuck?

WRITE.IT.DOWN. 👉🏻👉🏻 When you have tried to make a change before why didn’t it work? Who did you have around you ?? Who were you letting influence you?

I LOVE to learn and I haven’t quite found a balance between work, study, and down time. Often I get so much into work mode that I don’t leave enough time to study and continue learning. But, then I will get into habits of too much study and not enough action or content creation.
I have been working on batching my days so I can work on all of these areas and have designated days for each! I haven’t quite got the hang of it yet, but I am getting there!!

RAISE YOUR BAR 🔥
Surround yourself with people who have BIG GOALS and are DOING them. These are the people who believe in themselves and will breathe belief into you! These are the people who don’t have everyday dramas or the “buts, and the why’s, and the can’ts!” These are the people who will be real with you and raise your standards because their own are raised.
Don’t settle for what feels comfortable - because what feels comfortable isn’t getting you anywhere. That friend who agrees with your complaints and encourages your excuses is only encouraging you to play small.
If you are serious about your goals, your passions, your dreams - then you will find a way, but YOU have to get out of your own way first and start raising your own damn bar!
I spent 3 days with 50 entrepreneurs who encouraged me to raise my bar - I didn’t even bring up reasons why I couldn’t do anything because I knew I would be called on it. I only asked for guidance in finding solutions.
and and their amazing team put on one hell of a Mastermind and I am forever grateful for their mentorship in helping me not only grow my business, but in growing myself!

“What is it that makes you love what you do so much?”
I was asked this question yesterday while laying on the table getting a microdermabrasion done 🤪
I always stumble when being asked this question because I am such a visual and EXPERIENCE person that I feel my words are never as strong as what the experience is!
I actually had a much longer post written out, but I feel I got way too wordy! See in a simpler nutshell - here it is. ❤️
FIRST: THE PEOPLE! What I do has brought some truly amazing people into my life that I didn’t even know COULD exist!
SECOND: I believe I am able to provide a missing piece to many peoples lives. Whether it be connection, a community, confidence, holding space for self discovery, or simply opportunity to move their bodies 3 + days a week!
Fitness has built a strong foundation for me to grow. It has come with heart aches, laughs, and memories. It has taught me lessons I am forever grateful for, shown me what real friendships look like and FEEL like. It has forced me to level up my life in order to help others level up theirs.
Even writing this I still don’t feel as if my words are strong, but I love what I do so much because what I do has helped me get to where I am now and I want to help others do the same and see that ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.
I never dreamed of being a business owner - I wasn’t smart enough for that 💁 However, I truly believe that is why I was put on this Earth. If I can do the things that I never believed I was capable of doing- then I want to show the WORLD what they are truly meant for!
💕Why do you love what you do? What sets your soul on fire?
