Customized Modification Creates Transformation.
Hello, I’m Jasmin!
Founder of Build Your Strong Plus and Social Climbers Society.
As a mother of two young children, I always knew my physical, emotional, financial, and spiritual health was important. However, a series of life events lead me down a path of self-destructive unhealthy behaviors and excessive weight gain. I was stuck in a body and a life that I did not recognize and had no idea where to begin to change.
I slowly began to modify my daily actions in an effort to create the life that truly desired to have. What I quickly learned was that small calculated modifications lead to huge transformations. Now I support others in creating modifications in different areas of their life and business to reach their goals in a way that feels good and in alignment with who they are at their core.
Health & Wellness
At 718 pounds it was physically difficult to do most things and I knew I needed to make a change. I promised that I wouldn’t put my children in a position where they lacked me as a mom due to my physical limitations.
The first modification came from just showing up at the gym. Because it was easier to show up for my trainer versus myself, I slept in the car every morning until he arrived. I committed to giving my best each day.
No, I couldn’t stand and do a jumping jack, but I could sit and replicate the movement until I gained the strength to stand.
Learning to modify my movement and my relationship with self has led to a release of 276 pounds, increased mobility, a new life, and a movement helping others transform their lives.
SMOOTHIE GUIDE
Social Media
Would you believe me if I told you that I never wanted to be on social media?
I signed up for an Instagram account to create a digital support tool for myself and my lifestyle change out of lack of in-person support. I didn’t tell anyone I had this account. It was my safe space to explore, learn myself, and connect with new energy.
After my trainer posted a video of me flipping a tire that went viral, the feedback from women that found my video let me know there was a need and I was here to fill it.
I began posting my modified workouts & how I was navigating the journey. I showed up in a way that felt comfortable to me so that I could show up and make an impact. Six years later I have grown my community by over 150,000 organically, and teach others how to do the same.
SOCIAL MEDIA SOP
Diversity, Equity,& Inclusion
I have been fighting for diversity, equity, and inclusion from an early age.
When I attended my first business conference, I was made to sit in the back of the room because I required special seating and was told it would distract from the video and photo optics. That’s the moment I knew I wanted to see a huge change made in the entrepreneurial world when it came to DEI.
In January of 2020, I produced my first live event, Dear Skinny Friend Live, which was fully modified to accommodate all people. From walkability of the venue to seating size, representation, and everything in between.
I want to guide others in creating inclusive spaces for their community that will leave them feeling seen, heard, and understood in ways they never imagined possible.
