Team Rising as Warriors

Hey! Thanks for taking the time to learn a little about me and what I do over here in my corner of the world. My name is Erin and I am someone who decided that I needed a change in my life because I was tired of not being happy with who I was and feeling burned out.

I am a middle school history teacher as well as the technical director for our drama program at school. During my first years teaching, I found myself getting burnt out and feeling very unhappy. I was dealing with a 40lbs weight gain during these same years due to the stress and the amount of work I was putting on myself. I had no idea how to fuel my body because I was on the “quick and easy” diet and thus I was feeling sick on a regular basis. My fitness looked like occasionally going to the gym and not knowing what to do when I got their. My busy schedule meant that my health had moved its way to the bottom of my To - Do List.

It was at this time that I started learning about a simple health and fitness plan that would fit into my schedule. This simple plan would end up completely changing my life. It was what I was missing It was the change I needed at the exact right time.

With my weight-loss and figuring out the proper way to fuel my body, I gained a community of people who would help support me along the way. It made me realize that I wanted to help others find this for themselves as well. I figured if I could help even one person, I would feel so completely happy. So... I got started. This is where I discovered my passion for helping others to change their own life through fitness and nutrition.

So here I am, the founder and CEO of Team Eminent. I am a dog mom to two of the cutest fur babies in the world. A lover of crafts, outdoors, travel, and Harry Potter. Trying to make an impact in the world one life at a time!

I am not perfect. Sometimes, I skip workouts, take days off from my business, eat dairy-free ice cream or a bowl full of Mac n’ cheese and fall into old habits. But it’s because I am like you, we are all on our own journey and since it’s a journey and not a destination, that means we are a work in progress.

The purpose of this all is to let you know a little bit more about my perfectly imperfect journey. To share some tips and tricks with you. But most of all, I want to help empower others all over the world to take the first step. To not be afraid because even baby steps will be moving you in the right direction. Moving you in the direction of finding happiness and truly living!

So let’s work together to build a life we are proud to call our own!
