HI, I’M ANDREA
It all started when I was nominated for "most likely to be independently wealthy" in junior high.
Who knew those silly little popularity contests had the ability to make such a big impact! As crazy as it sounds, that phrase became a part of my identity for years to come. I even attribute it as the launching pad to starting my multiple companies. So grateful.
My heart is dedicated to Mompreneurs.
To help you craft your own identity.
One outside of the title "mom"...
M.O.M.M.Y.
it was all I EVER wanted to be. I had dreamt of what my life would look like with a newborn for as long as I could remember.
...and yet when it arrived, it didn't look like anything I had pictured. I didn't bring Ryder in tho the world securely. I was struggling, BIG TIME.
I went from dancing in the NFL with a 6 pack, the picture of health. To being barely recognizable to myself in the mirror...
I had gained over 80 pounds and felt horrible. Physically and mentally. To make matters worse, we were struggling financially. We were in a down-turned economy, and my (now ex) husband had lost his lucrative job. I knew it was up to me to figure something out financially.
I HAD 2 CHOICES:
I had no clue what I was doing, but of course I knew I had to choose option 2.
I had to do it for myself. Even though I was a first time mom, a mess physically and mentally, I had to step up. I had to put my big girl panties on (both literally and figuratively)... I had always been a high achiever, always a leader, always the glass is half full kind of person.
START
looking
for childcare and take a traditional 9-5 job, miss out on everything I ever wanted and be unfulfilled in my life.
create my own
business
where I called the shots. And more importantly, make my own schedule and be home with Ryder.
SO I
thought,
"WHY NOT ME?" I had seem so many others go before me and become a success story.
So many other hard working moms that also proudly wore the CEO hat.
I borrowed a credit card with a $2,000 limit from my mom and never looked back.
It was now time to get to work. I needed a business idea, I wrote out a list of things I was great at, things I loved. I allowed myself to DREAM BIG. Anything fear would creep in, I would kindly send it on its way. I WAS DETERMINED to make this work so I could stay home with Ryder and be the mom I always wanted to be.
down at my scribbled list, these jumped out at me. Fitness, community, leader, science, personal development, and mental health. A fitness company? But wait, I was now 80+ pounds overweight?!!
Fast forward to about a million deep breaths, lots of heavy weight lifting, cardio mania and a whole lot of courage... my first company, Boot Camp Babes, was born!
Staring
Here we are at our very first big event, our Christmas Party! I wish I could bottle up how I felt that day and then sprinkle that feeling onto every aspiring entrepreneur I know today. The hard work, all the fear, the growth... all of it, is WORTH it!
I had been cash flow positive in a 6 figure business for 6 months when this photo was taken. I had lost my own weight, and helped hundreds of women do the same in the process. Truly a dream!
It was now crystal clear to me. Every mom that I brought into my community was also searching for purpose. Also searching for something bigger. They just needed guidance. They didn't know where to start.
They received a fun, amazing workout at camp, yes. But what they didn't even know they needed made the most impact. It was never about how to do a perfect bicep curl... it was 100 percent about getting their minds right. What were their dreams? What were their goals? Because I had been in their shoes, and because I was on the other side of creating my first successful company, I KNEW I could help them too! There were so many women that also wanted to earn an income and stay home with their kids. I was able to show them THEY COULD TOO. And I haven't stopped helping women realize their dreams in life, or business, ever since. I honestly cannot believe it has been over 15 years!

I would love the opportunity to help! This could be the start of something BIG for you. And honestly, I'm obsessed with making sure you figure it out! Because just like me, you deserve to live the life you have always imagined too. It is within reach!
through a journey that runs parallel to mine. Nothing makes me smile more than helping you realize your worth. Standing beside you as your hype-woman, pulling you up the ladder to your own success and happiness!
You,
Everything in life happens for a reason. We are either learning or growing.
Danced in the NFL for 4 seasons. Coached on the field for 2. I learned discipline, tenacity and grit being part of a professional team.
2000
After 9/11, traveled overseas to raise morale for the troops as a group of NFL Allstar cheerleaders from all over the US. We flew in cargo planes, slept in Military quarters and brought a touch of home to our service men and women during a very difficult time.
2002
I'm an aesthetician and I keep my license current to snag discounts on professional products. I worked at the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa once upon a time. Loved it!
2005
Helped my mom go through surgery, chemo and radiation to kick breast cancer's ass! While I was simultaneously going through bankruptcy, figuring out how to be a first time mom and learning how to create my first company, Boot Camp Babes.
2008
I think it is important to really know the background of any mentor you choose to work with. Do they have the proper credibility to help guide you? Have they been in your shoes? Here's a little more of my story.
2007
A Year for the Record Books!
Made it to the final round of interviews on the Amazing Race. Even signed the 300+ page document & was ready to go! The truth? Still a bit bitter about this if I'm being honest. LOL
2008
Have helped save 2 lives. One at a Boot Camp Babes class I was teaching. We found him on the ground, not breathing. He had been hiking at the park. The other was an 8 year old boy. He had a seizure while in the pool at Big Surf Waterpark. I was the lifeguard supervisor there.
2010
Moved to TX to support my (then) husband's job. Had signed a non-compete and sold Boot Camp Babes. 2 months later, found myself in an unexpected DIVORCE. Had to start over with 9 mo old Reagan in my arms + 4 year old Ryder... this was another time i had to DIG DEEP into my personal development.
2011
Opened the first Orange Theory Fitness back in Arizona! Went on to be a head trainer in that company. (since I couldn't start my own business with my iron clad non-compete) CONTINUED TO DO BUSINESS CONSULTING
2012
Married my soul mate! Dan and I had met many years ago, when I was 19. He was married at the time, but God knew he was the one I would end up with all along. We each brought 2 kids into our marriage, and we knew we also wanted to have a child together. A year later, we ended up going through the IVF process and were blessed with our sweet little Londyn.
2012
So Grateful
Love him!
Honored with the prestigious award, 30 under 30 successful entrepreneurs in the state of Arizona. Earned my first 6 figures in 6 months.
This is us at our cruise last year. 10 years & counting!

Private Mentorship
I've personally invested over $100K in coaching, because I KNOW how important it is. My favorite part of what I do is passing what I have learned onto YOU.
Elevate your business or lay a solid foundation for your online business. With a degree in Therapy, several of my own start ups under my belt, + one exit, combined with over 15 years of business experience leading other mompreneurs, I know I can be of immense value to you as your personal mentor.
I can walk beside you and show you EXACTLY what to do next for your specific situation. Can you see me smiling and waving my arms over here? I would be honored to help!
