Today, Lindsay Matway, a 28-Star Diamond Beachbody coach, lifestyle coach, fitness and beauty MOMtrepreneur joins me to share her how she personally used her pain to develop her platform and how surrendering to God’s calling is how she found the strength to build an extremely successful business.

Operating the business from purpose gives me joy that I can't get from financial or recognition

Growing up with alcoholic parents, her oldest daughter born prematurely, drowning in medical bills, and going through bankruptcy, Lindsay Matway is no stranger to pain in life. But, instead of drowning in her despair, this upbeat mother of 3 and business owner uses the bad times she went through as the bridge to build connections and to emotionally relate with people.

Today, she shares her personal journey into network marketing and how it became a vehicle to fulfill her God-given purpose. She talks about how she transformed her life through her business and went from being broke to complete freedom, and through it all, using her values and faith in God as her compass for how to conduct and grow her organization.

Lindsay shares key takeaways on how to overcome the fear of failing publicly, which most network marketers’ experience at some point. Also, we have an awesome conversation about making the choice between the victim or victor. In her words, ‘When I honor and know who is in control and stay committed to my journey no matter the bumps along the way, that’s when I rise up.’

Stay tuned as we have a peek inside Lindsay’s fitness story and how surrendering to God’s calling in her business changed her life.
