Fitness Expert and Entrepreneur Nichelle Laus Proves The Risk is Worth The Reward

Becoming Unf*@kwithable

I catch up with Fitness Expert and Entrepreneur Nichelle Laus about trusting yourself and taking risks if you truly want to fulfill your passion in life. Her secret to success, and how she keeps work, life, and family all balanced as she continues to grow her empire. If you're a soon to be Mom or new Mom, you'll want to hear what she says about getting your body back to "pre-baby" weight and the pressure women go through to achieve it. Plus her best tips to get sponsorship, and what you need to remember when aligning yourself with a brand!
I am the owner of Optimum Training Centre, certified personal trainer, published fitness model, figure competitor, transformation and competition coach, kickboxing instructor, motivational speaker, and a proud Mom of 4 young boys. I recently resigned from my 15 year career as a police officer to pursue my love of health and fitness.
I am also a Fitness Expert and article contributor, and model for various fitness magazines. I have appeared in 4 television commercials for Nike, promotional and advertising campaigns for various products and companies, and infomercials.
I have been chosen for the second year in a row to be the Fitness Consultant for the Edmonton Oilers Octane cheerleaders for the 2015-2016 season.
I have trained and competed at an amateur level in both boxing and kick boxing for over 18 years. The hard training, and dedication eased my transition into figure and bikini competitions in which I started in 2005.
Health and fitness is my outlet. It’s the one thing I can do on my own time, which is important with 4 children and a full time career. It’s also the one thing that truly makes me feel strong, both inside and out.
I am dedicated to clean eating, training, and motivating other women and mothers, and setting a great example to my own children as well as young teenagers. The children are our future, so let’s help them lead to the way to a healthier and happier lifestyle.
