Friday's Featured Female – Patience Bloom@RomanceIsMyDayJob

Welcome to Friday’s Featured Female!

Friday's Featured Female, #FFF

This weekly series features inspirational stories from admirable women.  IMHO, it’s always good to be reminded of how strength, determination, hard work, heart and ingenuity can impact the quality of one’s life and I’m proud that these women will allow me to share their stories here.

Today’s #FFF is Patience Bloom@RomanceIsMyDayJob – an editor at Harlequin, runner and die-hard Duranie (she wrote a 50 page term paper on the band in high school and walked down the aisle at her wedding to “Rio”).  Patience and I met through one of my best friends, Susie (who you might remember from my #SecretVacation5K), and had a girl-crush quick.  Patience is smart, a little bit snarky and about to set the world on fire with her own true story about how a Facebook message from a high school friend changed her life in Romance Is My Day Job: A Memoir of Finding Love At Last.

Sooooo have you met Patience?

Today’s #FFF is Christine Yu@LoveLifeSurf.  Christine and I have gotten to know one another in two very different and impactful environments that allowed us both to open new and exciting chapters in our lives.  We were social media newbies together at the first NYC Fitness Magazine Meet & Tweet and since then Christine has gone on to become an insightful writer (on her blog and publications like espnW), a fabulous photographer (her yoga selfies are brave and gorgeous) and newly minted yoga instructor!  I’m so proud to call this fabulous lady my friend.

Today I’m proud to present Kimberly@ManifestYourself.com.  Kimberly made a deep impression on me with her Ignite Fitness speech about “How To Become A Certified Fitness Blogger” at FitBloggin’13.  Her poise, warmth and love for health, fitness and the art of blogging allowed me to befriend her easily last June.

Although I’ve had the pleasure of getting a chance to hang out with Kimberly while I was in NYC this past summer, Kimberly’s blog gives you a great insight into this multifaceted woman – this Beyonce lovin’ lady puts herself on the page with honesty and grace that’s unmatched even while she describes the “ugly cry”.  Kimberly inspires me with each post.

Sooooo have you met Kimberly? […]

Friday's Featured Female – Kelly @ No Thanks To Cake

This series features inspirational stories from admirable women.  IMHO, it’s always good to be reminded of how strength, determination, hard work, heart and ingenuity can impact the quality of one’s life and I’m proud that these women will allow me to share their stories here.

 

Today I have Kelly, from No Thanks To Cake.  Kelly is an effervescent, honest and gorgeous person (seriously, could anybody be more photogenic!?) who made a deep impression on me at FitSocial.  Kelly has a vibe of determination, fun and creativity that shines forth not only in person but from her blog and I’m honored that have her on the blog today.  Kelly shows how making healthy living a priority isn’t easy but can be done with hard work, style and grace.  So haaaave you met Kelly?!?!

Hi there!  My name is Kelly and I’m the blogger behind No Thanks to Cake.

When Melissa asked me to write about my experience in weight loss and about my associated “hurdles,” I jumped at the opportunity.  1) because I adore her so much, and 2) because when she and I met at FitSocial in Denver, I realized very quickly that she shares my passion to inspire others to eat healthily and to lose the weight.

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.
