Welcome to Spiritual Fitness.  My name is Tim Blodgett and I am the CEO of this amazing organization.  I grew up in Connecticut and currently reside in Raleigh, North Carolina with my family. I've always been active in sports and fitness so a career as a Health & Wellness Coach came very natural to me.

 

The events of September 11th impacted me very personally.  It was then, that I decided to join the Marine Corps.  I always gave 100% when it came to my training so that I could achieve my personal best and give back to my country.  I was awarded the Iron Man title out of 500 Marines and excelled very quickly.  But the one thing I enjoyed most, was helping other young Marines perform better professionally and personally.  Unfortunately, I was injured from a road side bomb in Afghanistan which turned my entire world upside down.  I was hospitalized for months and eventually had to take a medical retirement leave from the military.

 

I got fat, lazy and suffered from severe depression. I didn't know what my purpose was but prayed that God would give me direction and strength to find it.  After two years of feeling as low as I ever had in my life, I came upon the Beachbody program, Insanity.  This is what I needed to reverse the downward spiral I was living.  It was hard, but I knew deep down inside, that I could do this.  I loved this program and in a short time, I started to regain my confidence and my physical strength.  I was feeling very inspired and knew that God had a plan for me.  I wanted nothing more than to help others who suffered from the same feelings I had experienced.  I knew I could give back in this way and use my story as motivation to inspire others.   Becoming a Coach was the next step for me and I knew that this is what my new purpose was.  It just felt so right to me.  I started a non-profit fitness ministry to help people achieve their physical and mental health goals one step at a time!  What an amazing achievement this has been and I know I still have so much more to give.

 

Now, I work with all types of people, in various situations, and I am inspired by THEIR struggles because I know I can help them overcome whatever holds them back.  God had a plan for me and I'm living my purpose through helping others achieve theirs!
