These Girls

I own a small business. A gym of sorts but it has become much more.
 When I began I was not sure what I was doing, how it would evolve. Slowly but surely they came. Some just seeking a workout. Most wanting to lose weight and “tone up”.
As we went along they showed success with my nurturing. I admit I was so new at this..but I knew one thing I wanted to help them.
Through trial and error and a whole lot of patience on both sides, we started to grow. Word of mouth is a powerful thing. They brought others.
Many have lost weight, inches and body fat as they worked hard.  They gained lean muscle and strength.
These are the physical changes. They are proud, they feel empowered. We all rejoice! Reveling in each others’ success.
But there is so much more. There have been bonds made through the sweat and hard work.
There have been tears of joy and laughter.
In contrast, There has also been sadness, someone struggling with day to day life.
In these times I find comfort in knowing that they feel better after leaving our “safe haven” Everything here is kept in confidence.
Yes, I am proud of what we have. It’s a group effort. These girls,  are a force to be reckoned with. They are strong. They are empowered. They face life head on. They support each other.
These girls are real women.
These girls are what makes LGFitness what it is.
And I am forever grateful for that.
Much love and Badassery.
