Sorry for any feathers I ruffled…

And let’s get real - I WAS one of those coaches.

I lacked the skills and education to help my clients on the level they needed it.

I used phrases like “non-compliant” and thought they just “didn’t want it enough”.

And I was so wrong.

I know better now and the coach I was years ago, well she’s got cobwebs growing on her now.

As your coach I’m heavily invested in my growth because you deserve it 🫶

p.s. if you’re a past client of mine and want to experience this level up in real time, let’s chat because I want to offer you something special… taken in Columbia, South Carolina by @zoelilliannutrition

You deserve a path that fits with your life…

The things you did in the past are in the past for a reason.

They didn’t support helping you become the person who sticks with your goals long term.

Because it’s not about rushing to the outcome, it’s about leaning into the steps that get you there.

Steps that are flexible and supportive.

And allow you to become a new version of yourself.

^^ this is what I’m here to help you uncover 🫶 taken in Columbia, South Carolina by @zoelilliannutrition

For all the new faces here (and for those not in the know)

I figured I’d share a bit about myself because this is some of the stuff that makes me “me”

I hope you enjoy learning about my past 🫶 taken in Columbia, South Carolina by @zoelilliannutrition

They got me to do it…

I’ve been eating the same protein powder for years and never planned on deviating from way ways.

But then I got burned out.

So I stopped eating protein powder. Until…

@earthchimp reached out to me to try their product

I was skeptical but figured why not give it a go 🤷‍♀️

The first attempt at a shake was a bust. I hadn’t figured out the best recipe.

Then I fixed my mistake and it was SO good!

Follow my recipe:
A little water
Frozen green banana*
Two scoops @earthchimp
Peanut butter
Oats

* green bananas give a nice consistency and provide resistant starch which is beneficial for the gut

Thank you @earthchimp for helping me out of my protein rut 🧡 taken in Columbia, South Carolina by @zoelilliannutrition

Your assumptions are…

Wrong more than they’re right.

Oh and I don’t look like this anymore and that’s okay 🧡 taken in Columbia, South Carolina by @zoelilliannutrition

The last one is the most important…

I could do an intro post for all the new faces here but I’d rather do a true get to know me because the whole…

“I coach women to stop obsessing over their bodies and stop overthinking food” thing is what I do, but there’s so much more to know 🤷‍♀️
.
.
1️⃣ While living in Mexico at 19, I scaled a building in the pursuit of winning hide and seek. The people walking by were very suspicious.

I lost to a guy who spidermaned himself in the top of a palapa. (Go look up a palapa if you don’t know what that is).

2️⃣ I’ve been in underground tunnels, tiny in-ground hidey holes (idk what to call these but I do have a picture if you’re curious) and I shot AK-47s where the Vietnam war was fought.

Oh and it was the morning after someone tried to rob me in Saigon, which I’m still scarred from on my knuckles. Don’t worry, they didn’t get anything :)

3️⃣ I couldn’t get in trouble as a teen because I didn’t lie. I just told the truth so sarcastically that it wasn’t believed.

Yes mom, I really was going to sneak out and do drugs.

4️⃣ Someone once asked me to hold their puppy while they went in a store and then someone else came over with a briefcase of cash trying to buy the puppy. I didn’t sell it.

Turns out the whole thing was being filmed for a YouTube video.

5️⃣ I got my first smart phone in 2017 only because my flip phone was becoming very unreliable 😢

If my phone was just a tad more capable, I doubt I’d have ever gotten a smart phone.

6️⃣ I’m a girls girl and I will be there for you so hard.

There’s so much evil in the world and the last thing we need is women not supporting and hyping up other women ❤️

Let’s go a little deeper, shall we?

#1: To make it even more confusing, some people will try to look credible by sharing research but the research isn’t applicable to humans 😵‍💫 it’s important to learn who the good creators are and follow them.

I’m happy to share a list of my faves with you if you ask.

#2: Companies will do whatever they can to make their products more appealing.

Package styles and colors will reflect a “healthier” looking product to appeal to people who care about their health, even if the product isn’t actually more nutritious.

There is SO much that goes into product packaging to make it appealing to purchase and it’s really easy to fall for it, no matter how much you understand this stuff 🫶

#3: This is the core of our work at ZLN. I care about setting you up for life, not a 90 day body change. If that’s all you’re after, we’re not a good fit 🤷‍♀️

#4: All exercise is amazing.

That said, nothing bums me out more than talking to someone who spent tons of time and $$ on something yet didn’t get the result they wanted because that method wasn’t right for their goal.

#5: If not closing your rings means you feel like a failure and that feeling leads you to quit or overcompensate the next day, this will continue to hold you back from your goals.

You deserve better than a device making you feel like crap.

—————-

There’s so much garbage in the health and fitness space and sadly, it’s not going anywhere.

The best thing you can do is find reputable sources to educate yourself and/or work with someone who can show you the ropes in a way that sets you up for success on your own.

BTW, that’s exactly what we do at ZLN 🧡 taken in Lexington, South Carolina by @zoelilliannutrition

I wonder what…

this list will look like in a few years?!

I love coaching, I love the breakthroughs, I love the way my clients push themselves out of their comfort zones and are highly rewarded for it 🧡

And I love being a coach who continues to grow and change as I see the paths that really matter for long-term success.
