Online Client Spotlight: Julia Samzadeh

Meet Julia, a fun-loving hairdresser from Abbotsford, British Columbia who recently signed up on my Online Fitness Training program. I have never met her in person, but she contacted me throught my Facebook Elle Fitness page for a helping hand with her fitness goals. What striked me the most about her was her magnetic vibrance, postive outlook on life and beautiful smile!
She has been struggling with her weight for many years and was now ready to make a necesary lifestyle change and better her overall health for good. She had been raised in a traditional Iranian family, which greatly influenced her eating habits. Despite the national mouth-watering Persian cooking being extremely appetizing, it wasn't on her side when it came to weight loss simply because her metabolism wasn't speedy enough to handle it. Right then and there, I had a deep connection with her instantaneously as we e-mailed back and forth, discussing her life and goals. My Ukrainian roots and "meat & potato" childhood reminded me very  quickly of my own struggles as a child and teenager.
In the recent months before reaching out to me, Julia had been working out at her local gym, but was lost when it came to specific exercises, nutrition and supplementation. These are all big factors that play into weight loss and overall health. Working closely with her, I developed a plan tailored specifically for her needs, and her busy standing-all-day work schedule!
Why has she been so successful and had so much progress? Because she gave herself to me entirely, trusting my every recommendation, paying close attention and quickly learning on the go. Her enthusiastic attitude has also played a major role in her unprecedented success. She has never once made an excuse, only found solution after solution. Getting her emails with pictures attached of all her pre-cooked, pre-packed meals in the fidge has put a smile on my face, time and time again.

What I enjoy most is receiving her correspondence filled with gratitude and positivity. I can just FEEL her vibes through the computer screen, and I send them right back to her. She has been my sunshine through some difficult days without even knowing it, and I could not be happier with her disciplined execution of all the things I have outlined in her plans.
Today is Julia's 24th birthday, and she is away on a trip to Europe to visit with family and friends. I would like to take a moment and wish her a VERY happy day and let her know how proud I am of her for making this BIG step in her life. I see many great things for her in her future and I am very excited to have the priviledge to be working with someone as special, beautiful, motivated and inspiring as her. May this year bring you an adundance of things only the heart can feel... Your journey has merely began, and I am here for you every step of the way. Humbled I am for having been given such a priviledge; thank you.

All my Love,

Your Coach
