I live and work by 7 key principles…
Be Fit (at the heart of me, taking care of self) Healthy Body – it’s all about keeping the vessel in top condition. The connection between physical & mental wellbeing is well documented and the better care we take of self the more we can do to help others.
Be Fearless (attitude, motivated, inspired, positive thinking) = Healthy Mind; re-programme our mind computer to think better, fear less, achieve more. When we take time to understand how we operate from a primitive level to a logical level, we enable ourselves to think better, feel better and do better.
Create Freedom (knowing me, working for me) = Healthy Business; seeing & making the most of opportunities whether in business or a career. Creating the flexibility that works for the way we want to live our lives and knowing we can have the lifestyle we want if we are prepared to do the work!
Pay it Forward (giving back) Healthy Community; caring for others, seeing beyond self. We are all connected and what we do impacts others. When we give our time, knowledge, portion of wealth back into the centre we help make the ripple effect of goodness go further, reaching more people in need.
Enjoy Friends & Family (make time to spend time with the people who matter) Healthy Network; building support. If we are the sum of the people around us it is our responsibility to choose those people wisely and influence them positively so that they too strive to have more of what they love in their lives.
Have Fun (doing more of what you love) Healthy Happiness; enjoying life! What difference laughter makes; when we are having fun we are often learning more because we are relaxed. Bring fun into work and play and see how it positively affects others and the environment.
Have Faith (in what you do, in God, in Universal Laws) Healthy Beliefs. Faith is personal and we have the choice to decide who and what we have faith in. The most important thing is to develop faith in oneself and be open to the possibilities that having faith brings.
My experience stems from a 22 year portfolio career in the health, leisure & wellbeing industry, with many personal successes in the world of fitness, in addition to 11 years in business (My first started in 2005). In 2010, I set up my personal development business, YvonneB Limited, as a vehicle to help other women begin their development journeys, creating more of what they want in their life whilst breaking old habits that have held them back (lack thoughts, low confidence, indecision, fear to name but a few).
As a professional trainer and designer of training products I have won awards for my training (2011 ‘Trainer of the Year Award’ by Reed Learning, one of the UK’s largest training organisations) and nominated by clients and business associates for 2 national awards in 2014, ‘What’s On 4 You’ Inspirational Coach, South & Best Hobby to Business support categories (being a finalist in both). I went on to win the Best Hobby to Business Support Award.
Author of three books; Yes You Can; a confidence building tool used as part of the Launching Women Into Business programme, The Virtualholic; created specifically for those wishing to enter the world of virtual service provisions and Being Fabulously Fit & Healthy at 50, a book focused on the importance of self care especially in these times of critical health issues, I love the written word and its potential to empower people.
I am devoted to building a business that serves my global community in all areas of their lives through collaborations, developing products and services.
