Its Monday...Don't forget to be awesome!


Mondays are not a day I dread anymore- I embrace them. Life is an incredible journey and I think we all get caught up in the EVERY DAY life of 'normal' that we forget its OKAY to STOP & MAYBE 'NORMAL' isn't really what we should be doing... maybe WEIRD is the new Normal!

We are told that EVERYONE goes to college, EVERYONE has debt, EVERYONE has to GO TO WORK to be successful. In the last year I have OPENED my mind to something so incredible. Something that has BROUGHT me home so I choose my own schedule.  I enjoy EVERY SINGLE day of my life-EVEN on the 'bad days'!







Yesterday I met 2 incredible people that interrupted my life a little over a year ago a perfect time- a time when i felt STUCK , stuck in debt, stuck being unhealthy. These 2 changed my life forever. I couldn't be more thankful and blessed for their continued leadership, guidance and friendship <3 

As I sat in Hartford Convention Center yesterday with 600 Amazing people- I started tearing up. The amount of weight that has been lost in that room, the amount of debt that has been paid off, the positivity that goes around, the well minded-amazing CHAMPIONS that are changing lives is just absolutely incredible. Not everyone will understand your journey, as you grow in life-not everyone will grow with you. I choose to surround myself with people who 'get it' who are on the same mission as me. People who make Me a better me. 

These people were STRANGERS a year ago..who would have ever thought they would be Forever Friends.
 





My love. My Best friend. My partner in life <3 Doing life together is WHAT life is all about.

If you ever feel 'stuck' in life...you need to step back & take a look around, open your mind to opportunities. You just have NO idea where it will take you.

weekends are for...

Weekends aren't the same for me as they are for others. I am only off every other weekend and those weekends "off" are spent doing my other "jobs" such as photography stuff or things for my challenges that I host... but I LOVE it. This weekend I had a surprise visitor! She literally texted me Saturday night and said "should I come tomorrow afternoon?" UM yes, I will never say NO to a visitor especially this one. <3 You only have so many people in this world that understand you and get you 100%. Luckily I have a few of those in my life including Brittany. We have been best friends since 10th grade and I wouldn't have it any other way. She is my {{person}} <3   Saturday started out "crappy" literally, had a toilet overflow that turned into a pool in our bathroom then a ceiling that was leaking. What a mess and not how I wanted to spend the first half of the day...... I spent the rest of the day meal planning for my upcomi

Adulting is HARD.

Lets be honest. LIFE is NOT easy. LOTS of choices to be made, and when you are a parent the choices you make no longer just effect you-they effect your children so life gets even harder.  I spend A GOOD amount a time a week self reflecting on how far I've come and where I want to go--we go through moments in our lives of "what IF" . I tell ya, I'm SO thankful that Advocare has come into my life. I think it has helped me grow as a person, a leader, financially and health wise. Ill take you back to my early 20s. I was a lost person, mentally. I didn't know where I belonged in life. I knew a few things-- I LOVED people, I LOVED helping people, I LOVED photography, but in those early years in our lives we are told "GO TO COLLEGE , GET A DEGREE, get a JOB and thats it" but I always thought of myself as 'DIFFERENT' I never wanted to just go behind a desk and work. I get BORED very easily and like to different things. Teaching, Psycholo

Where did flash fit girl come from?

I bet a lot of you are wondering why I decided with Flash Fit Girl? Well I will tell you- I didn't come up with the name all by myself. I have to give major credit to 2 of my dearest and closet friends Ryan & Brittany ( mainly Ryan ) Sorry Britt ;) I knew I wanted a name for my blog and for ME that fit my life and what I would be sharing about. I started 2 amazing journeys a year ago... one of them was my Photography & the other was my road to BE FIT & healthy. So the Flash - My photography Fit- My Fit & Healthy Lifestyle I've always enjoyed writing since I was younger, I love sharing my story with other people. I love helping other people. I wanted to start something where I could do all of that. I am still deciding on a Photography name before I launch my website-my gosh that has been so difficult. Currently its just my name Amanda Nicole Photography but I want something different! Picking a name is hard! I cant imagine how long it will take me to name
