In this episode of Becoming with Angelina Watkins, Angelina interviews Tashemma Fair and discusses learning how to enjoy the journey while being laser focused on your goals.
At a very young age, Tasheema dreamed of becoming a doctor. Her parents were a big advocate and supportive of her dreams and success, so they encouraged her to enlist in the military to help pay for medical school and they would help her as well. While Tasheema’ s goal was to be a doctor, she did flip flop with the idea of seeking other professions, but she stuck with it due to her focus on what she truly wanted to do. She successfully got through college but when she got to medical school the academics were much more challenging and overwhelming, but she held on with encouragement from her parents, pastor, and frequent prayers and talks with God.
Tasheema’ s relationship with the Lord was strong so she allowed his guidance and voice to pour into her spirit to lead her and take her purpose from level to level. She expanded her purpose and her reach to become a wellness and health coach. As one who struggled with her weight when she was young, she turned her struggle into purpose and is now helping others who deal with being overweight. As a doctor she is not just telling you to lose weight, but helping you on your journey.
Tasheema also became an author of a book called My Journey to Success, where she contributed on a book collaboration. Her chapter called Harnessing the Power of Three Dimensional Fitness to Create Life Balance touches on spiritual fitness, mental fitness, and physical fitness and how they all tie into one. Who better to elaborate on life balance and having strong core than Dr. Fair who on her journey had to learn to be focused but not so focused that you don’t enjoy the journey. You have to take care of self while fulfilling your dreams.
