Skills Assessment
@Vasavi Kumar Vasavi, I have a question that is a little outside of the usual Out Loud content. Does Out Loud School have, or do you know of, a reputable skills or career assessment that helps someone identify transferable skills and the types of roles or industries those skills could translate into? After almost four decades in fitness, I am seriously considering what I could do outside of the industry. I honestly do not need the next thing to be my passion or even something I love. I need to understand what I am already qualified to do, and what may require a reasonable bridge in skills or training. I am not looking for a “what do you want to be when you grow up” assessment. I need something practical that can look at the work I have done, leadership, program building, coaching, communication, operations, business ownership, etc., and help me understand where those skills have value outside of fitness. If you have anything in TOLS or can point me to an assessment or resource you trust, I would really appreciate it. Be Well

@Sulekha NaiduThat’s the BEST reason to be MIA! Summer was my favorite time of the year when my daughter was younger. I felt like it was the time we really got to bond without the crazy of the school year schedule. She’s in grad school now and working as an artist/ELA teacher in NYC. I spent four days with her doing Mommy daughter stuff. We even spent a day setting up her classroom and getting school supplies for her and her classroom. Enjoy what’s left of the summer. These memories last a lifetime.

@Vasavi Kumar THANK YOU for the reply! I am so glad the suggestion landed and that your “body shop” is aligned, all puns intended. And I can’t even explain why “build the reps” is right where I am. I have been in such a frustrated space with the content. I am literally sitting on multiple pieces of finished content, and some of it was professionally done.🤦🏽‍♀️
And Just Like That
Simply put, I can't keep saying I need like-minded people in my community but sideline myself in the community. So I am listening to Vasavi and Kim (live) and have rejoined. Full transparency, I was supposed to rejoin 3 weeks ago
🎤 JUST SAY IT JANUARY — DAY SIX: NAME WHAT YOU’RE PROUD OF
We’re so conditioned to perform humility that most people can’t name one thing they’re proud of without shrinking. But confidence doesn’t come from pretending you’re small. It comes from acknowledging your growth out loud. Today we flip the script. 🗣️ DAY 6 PROMPT: “What is one thing you’re genuinely proud of — in your business AND in your life?” Examples: Business: • “I kept showing up even when my numbers were low.” • “I raised my price without shaking.” • “I honored my nervous system instead of forcing visibility.” • “I stayed consistent when my old identity wanted to hide.” Life: • “I handled grief and still kept my heart open.” • “I stopped chasing people who wouldn’t meet me.” • “I rested without guilt.” • “I trusted myself more than my fear.” Your voice strengthens what it acknowledges. Extra rep: When you record your video, name one small action you’ll take in the next 24 hours to honor what you just said. Drop your Day 6 rep below. 👇🏽 Keep your videos to 2 min or less.

I just saw this and wanted to reply but did not have time to record: Forgive the typos ( I am rushing to class)👉Today I am taking a HUGE risk and investing in my business. As not to touch my emergency funds, I pulled from an investment account. It has taken me 3 months to pull the trigger. What got me to cross over? I am glad you asked :) I started my business during COVID as a tax shelter. My employer was requiring an online fitness/wellness presence during shutdown but was not reimbursing for the expense. So I sat with a CPA and we determined a 'side business' properly structured made fiscal sense. That was my first decision to invest in me even though it didn't look like it at the time. Over the past 3 months, I have sat with that and what I want my business to be moving forward as I move into my 3rd year full-time. So today is investment day and that makes me proud.

🎥 Stop Typing. Start Talking.
Alright Out Loud School fam!!! It's time to show your face. Our next Amplify Session is on November 20, and we’re diving straight into speaking freely on camera. So this week, I want you to actually practice being seen. 🔥 Your Visibility Prompt: Record a 60-second video and post it right here in the School. Talk about one of these: 🎤 Something you’re learning about yourself 🎤 A truth you’ve been holding back 🎤 A message you’d give to your past self Don’t overthink it. Don’t make it perfect. Just talk. You don’t get confident by hiding. You get confident by practicing. Let your voice lead. Let us see you.

@Christine Weddle RELIEF! I like that celebration. Can we say that again for the people in the back? :) I am not sure I would've thoght of it in terms of relief but when i read this my mind said 'what else woud it be'. I need to hold this moment for an upcoming coaching session. I will be sure to credit you anonymously. I am not sure if you are creating content, but your insight screams ... straight to camera
