Sweet friend,
We are so excited to support and encourage you this week! We are so proud of all your hard work in the studio! Today we are thrilled for you to meet an amazing woman who has truly been a light in the studio — our June client spotlight is Caroline Doherty! Her contagious smile and energy during sessions is motivating to women around her as she demonstrates living transformed!
“TransFit has helped me to change the way I look at exercise and focus on what my body CAN do rather than what it cannot. I have really learned to be grateful for my body.”
Client Spotlight: Caroline Doherty!
“I have been active my whole life as I have always been an athlete and played tennis at the collegiate level. That being said, I have not really had a choice but to workout on a regular schedule. When I got to college and was living on my own, I started learning about nutrition because although I was working out harder than ever while beginning my college athletics career, I did not look or feel the way I wanted to. My sophomore year I made a lot of changes to my diet and was only eating foods to fuel my body. It took a while to notice changes but after some time I was feeling more energized and confident and my performance on the tennis court was far better than it had ever been. I have honestly found that working out and eating right is just as important for my mental health as it is for my physical health and I feel the best about myself when I am living a healthy lifestyle. It is hard not to struggle with body image as a female in general but even more so as a college student and an athlete. When I came home for Christmas break this past year, my stepmom invited me to come to a class with her at TransFit and I fell in love with it and went almost every day for the entire break and do the same thing every time I come home! I have also started implementing the same workout structure when I am not in Athens. It allowed me to take my fitness to the next level and a lot of it is because of the change in mindset.”

“TransFit has helped me to change the way I look at exercise and focus on what my body CAN do rather than what it cannot and I have really learned to be grateful for my body. I have always been competitive and I love to challenge myself and have found that the most rewarding workouts are the ones that I didn't want to go to but went and pushed through anyways. Now that I have graduated from college and am starting a new job, I am excited to continue to work on my health and fitness for myself and not just for a sport. My next goal is to run the St. Jude Half Marathon in December!”
