The Wake-Up Call That Changed Everything
I stepped into the gym for the first time at seventeen — not chasing a trophy, but chasing confidence.
And even as I built careers in tech, insurance, stock trading, security, and trucking… The gym remained the one place where I never quit on myself.
Eventually, I stopped ignoring the obvious.
Fitness wasn’t my hobby.
It was my calling.
I became a sports nutritionist, personal trainer, peak performance coach, and after years of relentless effort, I earned my IFBB Pro Card.
I coached thousands of clients.
My fitness business grew.
My impact grew.
My reputation grew.
To the outside world, I had “made it.”
But what the world didn’t see was this:
Success in one pillar can’t compensate for the collapse of another.
While my Health & Fitness, Career, and Faith pillars soared, one pillar quietly crumbled — Family.
And instead of facing it, I buried myself deeper into work.
That imbalance eventually caught up with me.
I stepped off stage.
Shut down my business.
And over two painful years, I gained nearly 70 pounds and lost the discipline that had defined my identity for decades.
For the first time, I truly felt what my clients feel:
- Sluggish.
- Frustrated.
- Disconnected.
- Ashamed.
But that collapse became the catalyst for everything I built next.
Where True Transformation Begins
During that reset, I discovered something powerful:
- No diet or workout can fix what’s broken in your mindset.
- No short-term program can save a pillar you refuse to strengthen.
That clarity birthed:
- Get-FitStay-Fit™
- LevelUp-Mindset Breakthrough™
A system that doesn’t just transform bodies — it transforms identities.
Because fitness is NOT an event.
Fitness is a pillar of life.
And just like your finances, spiritual alignment, family relationships, personal growth, and leadership — it must be nurtured, measured, and strengthened consistently.
The leaders I work with now understand this.
And their lives transform because of it.
The Movement for High Performers Ready for a Level 10 Life
- If you’re a CEO, business owner, or high performer who:
- wins in your business but feels your health fading
- provides for your family but struggles to be present
- makes money but stresses over energy, focus, and longevity
- performs well externally but battles internally
Then the message is simple:
You don’t need a new diet.
You need new alignment.
And once your pillars align —
everything in your life elevates.
Real Transformations from Leaders Who Built Their Pillars Back Up
Kaylar: Rebuilding Her Identity — and Her Legacy
Kaylar Shavette, a mother of three, wife, grandmother, and entrepreneur, dreamed of stepping on stage for over a decade.
But financial setbacks led her to cheaper coaches — and three failed attempts.
Still, she never let go of her vision.
When she returned, she invested fully.
And she didn’t just step on stage —
She won one show and placed second in another.
But the real transformation?
Her fitness pillar aligned with her business pillar.
And when those strengthened, so did her Family and Finance pillars.
Kaylar went from struggling to running two thriving businesses — and becoming a core member of the LevelUp movement.
Today, she isn’t just a client.
She is proof that when a woman strengthens her pillars, her entire family strengthens with her.
Tetiana: A Young Leader Who Turned Purpose Into Power
Tetiana Tiutiunnyk was in her early 20s — juggling school, uncertainty, and a dream to compete.
She had passion but no roadmap.
With structure, accountability, and LevelUp mindset coaching, she won both competitions she entered.
Her confidence skyrocketed.
Her Growth and Relationship pillars aligned.
And life responded —
her partner proposed, and she stepped into a new chapter grounded in strength, clarity, and purpose.
Tetiana’s story proves this:
When a young woman learns to strengthen her Fitness pillar early, every future pillar becomes stronger.
Nick: A Gym Owner Who Couldn’t Transform — Until His Mindset Changed
Nick, 52, owned multiple gyms and worked with Fortune 500 companies.
Yet despite access to trainers, programs, equipment — nothing worked.
He was frustrated, confused, and questioning his own identity as a leader.
All he wanted was an athletic, confident physique and the energy to be fully present for his family.
With LevelUp-Mindset Breakthrough™ and a personalized Get-FitStay-Fit™ plan:
- He lost fat.
- Build lean muscle.
- Got his athletic physique.
- And gained something far more valuable — time and emotional bandwidth with his family.
Nick rediscovered joy, confidence, and presence.
His Family pillar rose.
His Health & Fitness pillar stabilized.
And everything else — business, leadership, relationships — aligned.
Why These Stories Matter
These aren’t fitness success stories.
They are pillar stories.
Kaylar
Tetiana
Nick
Each one discovered what took me decades to learn:
- You can be successful and still misaligned.
- You can have money and still be unfulfilled.
- You can be disciplined in one pillar and undisciplined in another.
- You cannot win long-term with temporary fitness.
When you strengthen ONE pillar, you elevate ALL pillars.
When you neglect ONE pillar, the others eventually collapse.
That is the core truth that Get-FitStay-Fit™ is built on.
