You know that feeling when something won’t leave you alone … and eventually you realize you MUST pay attention and heed the call to make a change?

Kelley Rakow - who grew up as a military kid - has lived and breathed this and now coaches her clients on how to align your inner knowing with your external reality.

11 years ago, she took action on this inner knowing when she and her husband co-founded and operated the first CrossFit Affiliate in Maryland without a plan or a ton of money to get started. After several incredible years running that business and offering group fitness classes, wellness coaching and events to their community, Kelley realized she wanted something different. After a multi-year transition process, the business was sold on Kelley’s 50th birthday (literally).

She was ready to tap into a new way of coaching - this time on the internet. Embracing technology to deliver her transformational message and lead her clients through her unique approach to fitness has opened up new worlds for Kelley and the women she coaches.

Her invitation for you: be who your soul says you are.

Tune in to discover:

• How she developed tenacity, grit and the ability to thrive on change
• How she knows when it’s time to make a change because something has run its course
• The power of taking your skills and gifts and packaging them up differently
• What happens when you peel away the layers and the lies
• Why it’s okay to allow yourself to be the “first” or “only” to go on the ride of your life

Cue the confetti: GET GUTSY is 4 years old today! Let’s celebrate this wild ride together … full of twists, turns and pivots.

Faith Marshall knows all about the art of the pivot. When she wanted more flexibility in her work schedule as a parent, she started a janitorial business. She pivoted from there when she launched a bookkeeping business.

After walking through her mother’s journey of Alzheimer’s and Dementia, she was again guided to make another pivot to serve families navigating this tricky, emotional road. Faith’s book “I Miss You Mom: A Daughter’s Journey Into Dementia Land” and speaking engagements (note: she used to have a fear of public speaking!) at memory care centers allow her to serve the specific community she seeks to help at this stage in her career.

Pivots equal power when you trust the call to make change.

Tune in to discover:

• How going through emotional pain shows you where there is a need for something that doesn’t yet exist - and how to fill that gap
• How becoming a coach opened up the next level of her business
• Why it’s important to connect and support each other to not feel so alone
• Have a fear of public speaking? How to get over it and leverage in-person connection to grow your community

About Our Guest:

Faith Marshall is an author, professional business woman and entrepreneur at heart. As life is often unpredictable, Faith found herself faced with her mother’s Dementia diagnosis, which ultimately pushed her to face both denial and fear head on.

While writing and publishing her personal story, “I Miss You Mom: A Daughter’s Journey Into Dementia Land” Faith felt compelled to make a drastic change in her life. As she embarked on a journey that would ultimately lead her to her true purpose, Faith knew she had to challenge herself and also support the Alzheimer’s and Dementia community. She currently works directly in support of the Alzheimer’s and Dementia Community providing private coaching, group support and resources to families.
