Welcome to my site! I just wanted to say hi and I am so excited that you are here! My name is Kim Mayberry. I am and entrepreneur, who has been running a business for the last 16 years with my amazing husband. We have a large family of six children (three of them are step children for me, but I love them all the same). We are a crazy bunch who love spending time together (well, most of us), playing sports, watching sports, having family meals, going on vacation and trying new things.
What I love…
My passion outside of the family is that I love helping other people where ever I can. I found that I help the most people with their fitness through strength and conditioning work. I love taking a person, who doesn’t think they can do something, working with them, and seeing them change into to be the best version of themselves. Reaching higher heights than they thought was initially possible. It is so rewarding to me.
My Reason Why
The reason for this blog is pretty selfish though, I am really working on finding myself again. I have been in this mode for the last 16 years of taking care of babies, cleaning the house, cooking meals, working odd jobs, and all of that is on top of running a business.
For so many years, I haven’t thought about what happens when all my kids leave the house (I thought it would never end, ha), and now it is becoming very real. We spent so many years just surviving, that we forgot to build a what happens next fund and think about what happens when it is just us again (or for the first time).
I felt like I got slapped in the face when my second step-daughter went off to college. She and I were really close. She left, and I was ready for her to go but then I was like wait a minute…is that it? Now she is grown and doesn’t need me anymore? On the inside I was low key freaked out.
Then, just like that the last four years just flew by. I started stressing out, all my kids are leaving!!! That is me totally exaggerating the situation. Now what I am suppose to do….
In reality…
Let’s put this in perspective, in real life, I still have four kids left at home, their ages are 17 (he will be graduating this year), 13, 12, 6. So I have a lot of time left with them but because time is going by so fast I find myself trying to savor it more because I realize how quickly it will go by.
To remedy my situation, I thought what a better way for me to let it all out than by putting it here, in the open for the world to see what I do awesome, what I suck at, pretty much all my successes and my failures for others to learn from.
All and all this blog is about my journey to finding a better me; health wise Mentally, and financial-wise (I suck at this one the most), I love spending money!
Overall..
I just want to say hi and share my experiences of what worked for me and what didn’t. My thoughts are that maybe, just maybe, my experiences will help someone else become more successful or avoid potential pitfalls. Can’t wait to share my life with you!
Let’s kick life’s ass together!
