Being made redundant was the best thing that ever happened to me

So, what seems like a lifetime ago back in January I got made redundant. Everyone I know was saying how sorry they were for me and angry about the situation on my behalf. Mate I was over the moon, I was so happy. I remember being in the meeting (well on zoom) when they told me. I was like ow well I need time to process things and think about my options. The moment I shut the lid on my laptop I started partying.


Now some people will be looking at this thinking I am talking waffle (translation lying) but honestly, I was so happy. I spent so long working my arse off for another company and building up their brand and giving them an amazing reputation, but I was working on my own brand. I registered 310 Fitness back in 2017 but because I was so busy working on somebody else’s baby I had done pretty much nothing with my own brand.


Whilst at my old company I was on my game I always smashed my targets and had such a good reputation with my clients. Don't get me wrong I didn’t always see eye to eye with the management team but the people I worked with loved me and I built such an amazing relationship with them. I still talk with some of them today and from what I hear they still ask for me. Because to me I want to do everything for my client, and they (you) are the centre of my attention whilst you're working with me,


Now I had some savings and got a nice chunk of change (pay out) when I left. So, I had no struggles financially and I could finally focus on my business and brand. Since leaving I have started my social media pages (currently a bit shit) which I am working on everyday trying to improve. I have been on 4 training courses to better my skills and deliver a better product. I have learned so much about my business and the industry, launch my 1-2-1 personal training (much more in the pipeline keep watching this space) and I still do rowing coaching for 2 amazing clubs.


Basically, my life has gone from being stuck in a dead-end job to finally being happy and having the freedom to do whatever I want with my business and help so many more people. That is my main goal, I got into this industry to help people better their lives. Sport and exercise completely changed my life for the better is so many ways.
