I am an author, speaker, transformation coach, and 11-year, 100 lb. weight loss success story. I am also the CEO of a mission-oriented gym and wellness center in the Charlotte, NC area called 265 Point Total Fitness.Interestingly enough, much of the success that God has allowed me to enjoy is founded upon a book that I wrote in 2013, 265 Point. In the book, I share how I transformed from being a 265 lb. junk food addict to a 155 lb. fitness fanatic appearing on the demonstration floor of the Dr. Oz Television show. It's part biography, part self-help. I wanted to do my part to end the trend of obesity in America and help others lose weight and keep it off.I would love to say that I answered the call to write immediately. I didn't. It took me YEARS to put pen to paper and publish my book.Now, as an aspiring author coach my mission is to ensure that others don't repeat my mistake. This podcast, Publishing Secrets, is designed to further that mission. I pray that it blesses you! GET CONNECTED:Website: http://www.265point.comPurchase 265 Point: https://www.bookclout.com/book/265Point   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TamaraJacksonTransformationExpert/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fitnesstamara265/
