Despite the Sara Bareilles lyric this isn’t a Monday installment of Tunes For Tuesday but it is kind of an extension of Friday’s Featured Female. In the past week, I’ve read three blog posts by some fellow women bloggers that were just plain brave and I feel that they need to be shared.

It is not my intention to make the authors feel awkward by highlighting or bringing what might be unwanted attention to these intimate posts. I want Danielle@TRexRunner, Dani@WeightOffMyShoulders and Monica@RunEatRepeat to know how much respect I have for their courage. It’s difficult to be honest with oneself about uncomfortable feelings or situations in life but to take the time to translate those emotions into words and then share them with the world is extremely admirable in my book.

Today I’m featuring one of my favorite bloggers, Jill Griffiths of Tree Fitness. We met at FitBloggin’ and roomed together at FitSocial. Jill wowed me with her sunny personality, fitness outlook and the fact that she’s an entrepreneur (check out her personal training videos on FitFlicks.com), wife and a mother of 3! Jill also runs a gluten-free household not because it’s the latest fad but because 2 of her 3 kids have celiac disease. It’s no secret that I’ve referenced my friend Jill more than a few times here on the blog and since she’s very eager to introduce herself, I’ll just stop now and just say – – – Haaaave you met Jill?
Just a quick introduction, my name is Jill Griffiths and I have been in the fitness industry since 1999. I absolutely love anything Fitness. Throw in a crazy beat, and I am like little girl in a candy store. Maybe not the best analogy since I am a CPT, but you catch my drift right?
When Melissa asked me to write a guest post, I was more than excited and willing! I met Melissa back in June at the FitBloggin convention. It was kind of by chance that we met up and ultimately became roomies, and we have been connected ever since. Don’t you love finding friends that you just click with? Ya, me too. […]
Today I have another fellow FitBloggin’ 2013 attendee who happens to reside in the LA area, Sam Bangs of Life Is Bangin‘. Sam is not only a personal trainer and coach for the Fleet Feet Sports Burbank Running Training Programs but she’s also an Ambassador for Greatist, SweatPink (like me) and GirlsGoneSporty. We had a fun night together when Sam asked me to appear as the in-house Registered Dietitian for the Diva Night at Fleet Feet Sports Burbank back in October. There are many layers to this stunning and sassy girl from the East Coast and I’m really happy she’s guest posting here today. Soooo have you met Sam?

“I’m wonderful! I’m nuts about me! … I’ll tell you want I want. I want a home and I want a family—and I want a career, too. And I want a dog and I want a cat and I want three goldfish. I want everything! There’s no harm in wanting it … because there’s not a chance in hell we’re going to get it all anyway. But if you don’t want it you’ve got even less chance than that…”
