Well, hey everybody. It is Melanie Mitro, the host of the Women Inspiring Women Podcast. And I'm so

excited that you're here with me today. And you're checking in for another podcast episode. Gosh,

first of all, for starters, sometimes I have to pinch myself that I have been in business for 10 years now. You know, this morning, I was doing

my workout. I'm actually recording this on Tuesday. It airs on Tuesday. And, you know, I was going every

day. I go through my memories on Facebook to sort of, I just love to look back and see the kids as they grow and the videos I've posted and the photos I've shared.

And it also is sort of this time capsule of my business journey, my personal transformation.

And this morning, I found the picture of myself holding up the sign that said May 3rd of 2000.

And it would have been, let's see, it would been 2011.

May 3rd of 2011, 10 years ago is when I started day one of my health and fitness journey with

Teen Beach Body. And I started insanity. And I borrowed a copy of the DVDs from a woman that

lived down the street from me. And we had a townhouse, three bedroom townhouse. And it was

kind of small. And I didn't want to wake the boys up.

So in the afternoon, I'd put them down for a nap.

And we had this storage room that was like through the garage, you know, in the back of the

house all the way down to the bottom.

And so I'd take the baby monitor.

I'd go down there and I pulled out this like old carpet square and set up my laptop and

that's where I would do my workout. And that's really where my journey started with with direct

sales, with team Beachbody, with our health and fitness programs, with their nutritionals.

It's really where I fell in love with with at home workouts, which is crazy. I always thought you had to go to the gym.

You know, I always thought that you had to work with a nutritionist. Like I always thought

that at-home workouts, they didn't actually work. I really was firmly against them.
