In this Episode: Hi, this is your host Michele and I appreciate you tuning in today and for every episode that you’ve joined me for.  As an empowerment coach for the last 17 years.  I know that it is motivating to hear another woman’s journey; whether that is through a book, a podcast, or some other way…. you begin to realize that if something is possible for one person, it is also possible for you.  The truth is that many of the women I bring on the show, you may never hear about other than on this show but that’s by design — I want to show you examples of real, everyday, motivated women showing up to design a life they love.  They are looking to create something special and meaningful in their life and I know that is also possible for you. The stories I choose to share are unique - they serve as an example that the power to create comes from your ability to imagine a future you that gets you excited and then the key is to take some action every day towards those goals.  I’ll be doing some solo shows in the near future to help guide on your path and give you specific tools that will help you. With that said, I’m excited to bring you today’s guest.  Moe McClanahan is a police investigator who works to protect children from online predators.  She's been a police officer for 19 years and working internet crimes against children for the last 6 years.  Her work is intense and often emotionally draining which is tough enough but Moe had also battled postpartum depression when her son was born.  So four years ago Moe made a mindset shift that changed her life.  She began working out regularly and changed how she ate and her depression lifted.  Her life changed and she now feels energized, happy, and motivated.  This is what inspired her to help other women with their fitness goals.  If you hear Moe talking about moms that is because it is her niche but her story is relevant for all women, especially if you are working full time you’ll see an example of how someone is managing a day job and focusing on the "dream" career.

Key Takeaways: Moe experienced post-partum depression and it lifted when she found a community and began working out regularly with the help of a fitness coach. Moe gets up every morning at 4:00am and does personal development and gets in her “mom” time.  She works out with her "Fit Club" in the mornings before heading into the office. Accountability, creating a routine, and mindset shifts helped keep her going.  She didn’t want to go back to that depressed place.  She encourages women to focus on their nutrition - to have more energy.
