Hello my name is Janee (Ju-nay) and I am an online personal trainer for military spouses.
Here's my story: read, skim through or just click the back button up to you.
Pictured below is the most recent one I have of our family. This is from when my sister in law visited us for the first time at our new base. Otherwise it's just me, my husband, our 5 almost 6 year old daughter (Madison) and a 10 month old cane corso pitbull puppy(Little Lady).
I grew up a military brat, I was born overseas and moved multiple times throughout my childhood. I lived in Indiana, Ohio, North Dakota, Florida, Oklahoma, Colorado and California. California was where my dad retired out of the military. I eventually met my husband there, funny enough it was just a little before he was leaving for basic training. I didn't realize when I met him he was going into the military. He went to basic and then ironically got stationed at Travis AFB in California so we didn't end up moving. Fast forward like 7 years, I got pregnant with our daughter, hubby got orders for his short tour to Turkey =[. Very sad moment, he left when I was about 3 months pregnant. He did come home for her delivery for his mid tour. Fast forward another few months and we get orders to JAPAN! so cool!!
And that is where my true Personal Trainers story starts. I previously worked in the medical field in california,primarily towards the end doing lots of training of new hires, and working out was my passion/hobby. I had to quit my job when we moved to japan so I stayed home and took care of our daughter. That was cool at first but then I started to lose myself. =[
I wasn't able to get into the gym, Madison (my daughter) wasn't around other kids like she was used to, she was 1 year at this point. I had to do something, so I started baking and selling macarons. I ran that business for a little over a year. Then one day the base posted a scholarship opportunity for personal training, so I figured sure I'll try that out. I sat down and wrote out a one page essay on why I would like to be a personal trainer and what I would do with it. I'll post that essay at a later date lol but I turned it in and then a few weeks later I found out I got accepted!!
Now fast forward over 3 years later and I have helped 100s of women and 2 men reach their health and fitness goals. How awesome is that!! I took something I was good at and passionate about and am using it to better and help other women's lives!
I am now focusing on the military spouse. Like you I understand what it is like to have to pack up, move and leave our friends and family behind. It straight up sucks! We got orders last year to leave Japan and move to Arkansas. I had to say goodbye to so many clients. I sat and thought it shouldn't be that way. So I have transitioned to an online personal trainer because you may move to a new house, country or state but you won't have to lose your trainer. I will be there in your back pocket no matter where either of us are! If you'd like to chat or apply to work with me click the link

As always Go get it!
