Team Call with Darin Olien

Last week I had the extreme pleasure of being on a live call with the co-creator of Shakeology, Darin Olien.

I was not super familiar with him before the call, aside from the fact that I knew he helped develop the formula for Shakeology and travels the world looking for fresh new products to add to it.

After the call though I really had a new appreciation for all of his hard work.

I am certainly no expert at Shakeology or all of the all nutrients that go into it, but here are my takeaways from his call!

But first, I'd like to share a few articles that I find really helpful for those who are new to Shakeology.
How We Find the Ingredients for Shakeology

5 Shakeology Myths Debunked!


Okay... back to my takeaways!!!!!!!


Big Takeaway #1:
I really liked what he had to say about Super Foods healing your body. We aren't technically allowed to say Shakeology can help you get off medications... BUT... Darin did a really amazing job of explaining how our body craves whole, nutritious, super foods! Consistent behaviors can warrant positive results... so a consistent behavior of feeding your body super foods with help it function the way it was built to move.

He also said that medications are not designed to make us better but to just sustain our health. They are there to function as a way to get through out day an suppress any illnesses or ailments.

Super Food Nutrition is designed to make your body better and to HEAL it from the inside out. Not just to mask the pains or illness, but to get rid of it and move forward.

Big Takeaway #2:
The cost objection. I get it a lot! "I wish it wasn't so expensive." I know, $130 for anything is a lot of money. But I think it is all in how you look at it. Some people who see the BIG PICTURE only see that large amount. However, you need to switch your thinking! That $130 (which if you buy a Challenge Pack, like the 21 Day Fix, you are getting a workout program and the Shakeology for that one price, everything you need in 1 box!) divided by 30 days in the average month is a little over $4 a day. I don't have to go into what costs $4 for you to figure out that really... it's not a huge expense!

People will always need food. We will never skimp on food. It is always a must. So why use that money that we set aside for food each month, and throw it away on junk, processes, microwave stuff?? Going back to #1.... why would you want to skimp on something that can HELP you body run more efficiently and keep you off all those extras by feeding your body things that will reverse that process?
If you aren't going to skimp on food, then why not spend that money on something with value?

You will either pay the farmer, or you will pay the doctor.

Big Takeaway #3:
I am so beyond impressed with this guy. He gets to travel the world and discover new super foods to put into this nutritious shake that gets to be shipped directly to your home for you to enjoy.
A lot of other companies have come knocking at his door, offering tons of money for him to work there and make them a big success. But he says no every single time, because he believes in Shakeology and he believes in Beachbody as a company. I love that we can say that this guy works with us!
Take everything that we love about our company and just amplify it!
Most products do not even come close to what Shakeology can offer and they price they offer it. The costs are low on those other products FOR A REASON! Again, why skimp on your HEALTH?
There is so much research (he spends months in the jungle learning about super foods and finding the next big thing that will make us happier and healthier!) and knowledge and protocol that goes into Shakeology, that you should feel super confident that you are getting a quality product!


Big Takeaway #4:
It's a supplement that contains some of the greatest nutrient dense super foods in the world carefully formulated to give your body life enhancing potential for a longer stronger performing life.
I love the way he describes it in a few words! Wouldn't you want THAT in your life??? I would! Sign me up!

Shakeology is GREATER than the SUM of all its parts! And it has TONS OF PARTS... but by COMBINING it together... you are getting some amazing nutrition for your body!
