Name: Kayla Blum
Age: 24
Title: Fitness and Wellness Specialist
Married/Single: married! Just married the love of my life, Austin Blum, on February 16, 2019!
Kids: someday! After I travel the world a little bit!
City you live in: Mesa
A typical day in my life includes…
waking up and drinking my coffee while going over my schedule/goals for the day. I then usually go to the gym to work or workout and spend most of my day going over my clients programs or checking in over the phone with my online clients.
I was born…
in a small town in Illinois but moved here 20 years ago so I feel like I was born here!
My favorite thing about Arizona…
oh man, the variety of nature. I love hiking so being able to drive 2 hours and be in red rocks of Sedona or 3 hours and be in the forest in Flagstaff away from the desert is amazing!
I’m listening to…
slow classical music most of the time while I work from home, if not I am a country gal.
My family…
is my life! I am blessed with two families now that I am married and all of my grandparents live out here with us so I get to see family very often!
If I could have dinner with anyone, it would be…
Gary Vaynerchuk! He is my IDOL and I think I would pass out if I met him, haha!
One thing I cannot live without…
my husband. He is my rock, my love, my biggest supporter, my motivation, he is seriously my everything. I lucked out big time getting to be his wife!
When I was younger, I wanted to be…
a teacher! My whole life up until sophomore year of college I was headstrong on being a teacher. It wasn’t until my then boyfriend said I should teach about fitness that I started to pursue my now dream of owning my own business and teaching others about health and wellness. I still am a teacher in a way, just not in a classroom!
I’m inspired by…
my past, present and future clients. Their drive and motivation to make changes in their lives motivate me to stay on the right path in my own life. Whenever a client has a win in their own fitness/health journey I get butterflies!
The one person who motivates me is…
Morgan Eliz. Watching her transform her life and business is so inspiring.
If I could change anything in the world, it would be…
I would love to be able to give every person the opportunity to travel. I LOVE going to new places and already have trips planned for the next 2 years out of the country and I hope I can see as much as I can on this planet before I die.
The perfect day would be…
at home with my husband. I would start the day drinking my coffee and going over client calls/programs for online clients, on our big porch in the forest. We would workout in our home gym, spend the day together and in the evening take our dogs for a hike through the mountains in our backyard.
My first job was…
at Dairy Queen! Honestly, I love Dairy Queen but I hated working there haha. I was terrible at memorizing the menu.
My favorite escape…
traveling and bubble baths with a face mask on. I take a bubble bath almost every single night before bed.
My life…
is beautiful, amazing, overwhelming, great, blessed.
I’m currently working on…
online client phone calls, programs, selling my ebook.
Always…
kiss goodnight.
Never…
go to bed angry.
Favorite Quote…
“It is what it is!”
Biggest Dream…
I want to backpack through Europe for a month while still working with clients online. I want to go to as many countries as I can while still maintaining my online business.
My Pet Peeve(s)…
I HATE my food touching. If I have chicken, asparagus, and pasta on my plate and they slide and touch each other I seriously wont eat where they touched. It is so weird but I cant stand it!
More about Kayla…
while I was at Arizona State University I wanted to be a teacher and when attending classes I never felt that I was in the right place. It wasn’t until I started to teach my friends about health and wellness that I realized where my true passion for teaching was. I started my own business a few years back and spend my time breaking the social norms around nutrition, exercise, and wellness. I teach people in my community, whether by online coaching or or through my workout guides, what our bodies truly need, how to exercise for your own personal health/physical goals, and how to improve your quality of life. I want to make an impact by helping people find clarity through all the misleading information out there. My purpose for my business is to help people live the best, freest, happiest, and healthiest life
