Coach Spotlight: Mickayla

I am beyond excited to get to spotlight one of my TOP coaches today, Mickayla! I knew the moment I met Mickayla, through a mutual friend, that she was going to dominate this business. She was down to the point, give it to me straight kind of girl... no fluff... she had already done a LOT of her own research, and was ready to hear what our team could do for her life. Within a week of coaching she had stepped away from her personal training job at a well known gym, to not only pursue coaching, but her own training business as well. This girl is the definition of a go-getter. Let's take a second to get to know her more!


"When I was asked to share a bit about myself I was honored! Then I thought- “I’m pretty much an open book. What don’t people know about me?”

Well here it goes! I’ll start out by sharing my exciting news that I’m a bride to be! The Future Mrs. Stoner (I know what you’re thinking and yes I am taking his last name)! wink emoticon Michael is the most supportive, fun, down to earth, adventurous and loving man there is! He’s a good balance to my sometimes unorganized, spontaneous, chaotic self and way of life! He’s a bit shy and I’m a bit…well not! I can walk into a huge room of strangers and strike up conversations with people like I’ve known them for years! I’d like to say I’d rather have just a few close friends than a ton of acquaintances but that’s not really true. I DO love all of my best friends and family, but what I really enjoy is meeting new people, experiencing different cultures I’m unfamiliar with and hearing peoples history and stories.

Most people already know that my faith is my life! As a Health and Fitness coach my businesses are all Gods’ and I am simply running around down here for His glory (or at least I do my best to)! I’d love to build my businesses up enough to financially support a few missions trips around the world as well as be financially set for Michael and I to comfortably have quite a few children!

Other random facts about me: I was a D1 full ride scholar gymnast and I’ve always loved leadership roles as I was also the captain of the team. I am a proud auntie of 4, my favorite drink is a good fresh Mojito, my family calls me “Micki”, I tie my shoes in a unique way you’ve probably never seen, I bake to relax and pray while I’m running, and finally I love---- animals, the ocean, my nike collection, bargain shopping, playing the piano, a occasional Netflix binge (rarely happens though), dancing around my kitchen while cooking and sushi dates!

I am so grateful for Sarah and for being able to be a part of Fitforward! What a blessing this is! xo"

Don't you just love her already?! Me too! She is such a kind soul, and I'm so lucky to learn with her, grow with her, and call her a teammate and a friend. It is truly a  blessing to watch her team Divine Wellness grow and flourish because of her incredible leadership! Just another reason I love this job, because it brings people like HER into my life!

Achievements in April

Team >>FITforward had some incredible achievements in the month of April! We added some incredible people to our team, celebrated amazing rank advancements, and got to spend the day together with other local >>FF coaches at our quarterly Super Saturday Beachbody event!

My first Super Saturday I attended I was only with a couple other coaches from my team, maybe 3, this time, we had over 50 people attend JUST from our team alone! It is such a special gift to watch this team grow, and continue to bring incredible people into my life! But that event alone deserves its own post, coming soon!

Now I'd like to take a second to formally welcome all of these beautiful faces below to our team! All of these people joined in the month of April, ready to either continue on with their personal goals, share their success with others and help others achieve their goals as well, or to begin to create a life of their dreams! I am so honored to have every one of them representing Team >>FITforward!

 This was a record breaking month for new Emerald coaches on our team! Below are faces of coaches who have hit their first promotion in their business, Emerald rank! This simply means that because of their inspiration and motivation to others, they have welcomed people on their team, who also want to join the mission, to end the trend of obesity! They all now have a team of their own, they are growing as leaders, and earning many perks to this business! So proud of you all!
 And last but definitely not least! Below are our two Diamond and above celebrations for April! Amy reached a milestone of One Star Diamond rank, which is incredible! It means that she has created a solid team of go-getters, and her example and leadership has encouraged and supported one of HER coaches to hit a HUGE milestone as well! Leading me to miss Lisa! Lisa hit Diamond rank in her business last month, which is the first HUGE promotion in this business, it means she has created a solid team of her own, of other like minded people all working to help and serve others! I'm so very proud of you guys, and cannot wait to continue to watch your businesses flourish!

Never stop reaching for your dreams, if WE can do this, YOU can too!
