Hello, Steemit friends!
My name is Anne Marie May. I am brand new to the Steemit community, and I couldn’t be more excited! Although I don’t have much experience yet, I am thrilled to be a part of such an amazing platform through which to become inspired and (hopefully) inspire others!
So, since this is an introduction, I thought I’d tell you a little bit about myself so we can start to get acquainted…. I am a fitness coach and co-owner of a fitness company with my wonderful boyfriend in Santa Barbara, California. I am interested in all things health, fitness, wellness, nutrition (food in general, really), and I love to be outside - particularly on the beach! Living on the coast in one of the most beautiful places on earth brings joy to me on a daily basis, and I try to take advantage of my surroundings as much as possible.
I enjoy relaxing at least as much as I enjoy exercise so I try to do lots of each, I love to travel and haven’t done NEARLY enough of that for my taste, I relish new experiences and am fascinated by people. I smile a lot, I love to laugh, and I try to find the beauty, excitement, and fun in everything and everyone that comes my way.
I’m lucky enough to have chosen a career that that is both fun and rewarding, where I get to help people reach their goals and find motivation to grow and develop both physically and mentally every day. It’s my belief that by taking good care of the person on the inside, we find the greatest success in making positive changes on the outside.
As a health and fitness coach, most of my clients come to me asking for help transforming their bodies. Of course, right? But by digging a little deeper, I’ve found that most people really want to transform their whole LIVES. Creating a healthy physique is just one piece of the puzzle, one that many people decide to tackle first, and it’s a great place to start… But what we’re all really looking for at the end of the day is happiness, isn’t it? Comfort, peace, satisfaction, and fulfillment. It’s an undeniable theme that I’ve noticed over countless client interviews and interactions, and I think it deserves some real attention.
What I’ve realized throughout my life is that happiness has so much to do with the choices we make for ourselves, and how we choose to see the world around us - I’m proud to say that I have managed to build myself what I consider to be a very happy life, and I want to help others do the same and to keep the momentum going together!
I want everyone to feel as good as they can, and if by sharing my knowledge and leading by example I can help even one person enjoy their day a little more, then it will be worth it to me. I believe in living life with open arms and an open heart, and celebrating the little victories along the way to the big triumphs. There’s a lot to be thankful for each and every day, and being mindful and finding that joy is a skill that’s absolutely worth perfecting in my opinion!
So I would like to invite you to come with me as I share my life experiences, day to day bliss, and the best ways I’ve found to help us all become the healthiest, happiest versions of ourselves. Let’s enjoy life together - after all, isn’t that the point?
I am so grateful for this opportunity to engage with such a wonderful community of people, and I can’t wait to see what the future holds for all of us.
I look forward to making new friends from all around the world and learning from and about each other - let’s connect today!

Hi Anne Marie,
Welcome to this incredible platform. I honestly like your idea of transforming not just the physical aspect of people's lives but beyond it. Indeed, with the routine that you influence is the necessary discipline.
Here, you can share techniques, tips and diet styles as well that would greatly help the masses. Fortunately, you will be rewarded. Don't give-up if it isn't what you expected to be. People who will comment and interact with you will be your friends.
In this day and age where wellness and nutrition is crucial due to the immediate availability of fast food and unhealthy lifestyle, your advocacy and interests will help a lot. Again, welcome to this community and I wish you enjoy your stay here. :)
Hi there!
Thank you so much for the kind words and encouragement :) I really appreciate it! I surely hope that I can help some people to live their best lives by sharing what I've learned and what has helped me. I think that positivity, generosity, and working together will make a brighter future for all of us!
Cheers, my friend :) looking forward to following each other!

Welcome I can see your beauty is much deeper than your skin. I acknowledge you for being a person to give more than what people ask for but actually need. Lots of people join a gym or do work on the outside to cover up or hide from troubles beneath. Your clients are lucky to have you by there side helping shape all of themselves! Congrats on joining what I call the Steemfam and I look forward to reading more from you. Blessings to you!
I thought the point was to work to death and get a lot of cash and spend some of it just before you die? Which book have I been reading??
@annemariemay Lovely post! That's a strong message, that what people need is more about transforming their lives. Similar to something I learned some years back, that when we want something, we can do better by asking ourselves Why we want it. And then asking that answer Why. And then asking even that answer Why. Until we reach the cul-de-sac of answers. And that's what we really want. :)
Welcome to the wild crypto blog west! Looking good too!
If you are as dedicated and consistent on Steemit as you are with your health and in the gym, you Will be a success in no time! Welcome to Steemit, @annemariemay! Enjoy!
