AN ONLINE HEALTH & WELLNESS LIFESTYLE PROGRAM UNLIKE ANY OTHER
​There's no shortage of personal trainers and gym owners who tout the "Mind, Body, Soul" mantra - but very few of them have the education or proven strategies to help their clients achieve LASTING success. I am a strong believer in continuous education, and over the 38 years that I've been in the industry, I have continued to invest in my education to ensure I am delivering the BEST solutions for my clients. ​I do not believe in a “one size fits all” approach – I understand that each and every client is unique, with unique needs. Before you ever pay me a dime, we will do a discovery call to discuss what makes YOU unique so that I can determine the BEST program elements for your individual needs. I provide more tools, community support, education, and varied workouts than most trainers you will find which is why my program delivers LASTING results. Read on to learn more!
CARMEN JAMES LIVE OR ON-DEMAND WORKOUTS
Virtual workouts are provided via ZOOM and can be joined LIVE online or replayed when it fits into YOUR schedule – offering you maximum flexibility as to when you workout! My clients absolutely LOVE it - here is what one member had to say:
"I absolutely love the FitSouls membership because for a single, working mom with an unpredictable schedule the thought of trying to go to a gym to meet a personal trainer at this stage in my life would be just one more thing to try to make work only to have a meeting trump my plans and then miss my workout altogether. A flexible program is paramount to my success and yours (which far exceeds working with just a personal trainer because you are a HEALTH & WELLNESS coach) allows me to get my workout done as well as participate in all the added value from group coaching, personal development and mindset work, when it works for me. The support and added accountability from the other FitSouls members is unmatched with any other program I've tried. The decision to invest in my health and wellness with an experienced coach like you has paid dividend over dividend and I couldn't be happier with my results!" - Danyel Erdmann, FitSouls Member Since 2018
ACCOUNTABILITY
The vast majority of women who join FitSouls indicate that they need someone to hold them accountable. When you sign up for a FitSouls Membership, you will receive six, 1:1 LASER COACHING sessions with me during your first 90-days. During these sessions, I will work directly with you to outline your goals, help you strategize a plan to accomplish them, and hold you accountable to executing to the plan! After 90-days, if you decide to continue your FitSouls Membership you will have the option to purchase additional 1:1 LASER COACHING sessions, OR you can participate in the bi-weekly GROUP COACHING that is included in your Membership.
NUTRITION COACHING & MEAL PLANS
Do you ever find yourself overwhelmed by all of the different advice out there when it comes to nutrition? Fat is bad! No, fat is good! Count calories! No, count macros! Carbs are bad! No wait, carbs are good! It’s enough to drive anyone crazy. I work with my clients to develop healthy ways of eating that will WORK for their lifestyle and preferences – becoming a nutritionist, counselor, consultant, mentor and motivator all in one. I offer meal plans with recipes and grocery lists to make the process easy to follow and optimize your success. One client recently commented, "I LOVE learning how to modify how I eat so that I can still enjoy the things I love in a healthier way ... I don't feel deprived or like I'm giving anything up that I love!"
PRIVATE ONLINE FACEBOOK COMMUNITY FOR MEMBERS
When we are on a journey to improve our overall wellbeing it can be tough - especially if those who are closest to you are not on the same journey. They may not like the idea of you working out, or feeling like they have to eat healthier just because you are. Not having their support is a recipe for disaster! That is why a major part of my program is my "FitSouls" private Facebook community. Not only will you be surrounded by like-minded women who are working on the healthiest and happiest version of themselves, but you will also reap the benefits of free meal plans, recipes, challenges, opportunities to participate in book clubs with an emphasis on personal development, and even Bible study groups for the individual who wants to strengthen her relationship with God. As an added bonus, many of my tribe members volunteer to share their gifts and talents with their fit family by hosting FREE virtual cooking classes, crafting classes, InstaPot 101 classes, and more! We are a community with a purpose to support one another, provide added accountability, cheer each other on, and pick each other up on our tougher days!
SPIRITUAL MUSCLE IMPROVEMENT - BIBLE STUDY
For those who are interested in developing a deeper relationship with God, I offer a Bible Study group as well as daily exercises to strengthen the spiritual muscle.
In 2017 I was diagnosed with Stage 3 Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. It seems like only yesterday that we shaved my head and I donned a wig for the first time. Looking back, as sick as the chemo made me, it is a miracle and by the grace of God that I was able to work and keep my coaching business going! (I had some pretty amazing clients in my corner, too!)
​
Sitting in that oncologist’s office in 2017, I cried a river. Scared out of my mind! I won’t say that I don’t still get a little unnerved when I return to The James but I now know that Cancer was the greatest gift I will likely ever be given. It dropped me to my knees and beckoned me to realign some of my priorities and to make my relationship with God #1. I love sharing the Word of the Lord with the amazing women in my tribe!
