What an awesome weekend at the MO’ Cowbell Marathon in St. Charles, Missouri!

Huge thanks to all the runners who stopped by, shared stories, and recharged with us.

Phyllis is 89 pounds lighter and stronger.

Phyllis says,

“When I think about what has changed since I began this journey, the answer is simple: so much has changed.

I’m no longer the person who spent most of my time on the couch. I move more now, and I truly feel younger than my years.

When I used to travel, I chose tours that mostly involved sitting on a bus and being driven past the sights. These days, I prefer walking tours that let me get up close, even if it means climbing steps.

One of the biggest milestones for me came this year. Back in 2017, I refused to climb the steps of the Leaning Tower of Pisa. But when I returned in 2025, I climbed all 320 steps without hesitation. It was such a proud and powerful moment.

This journey hasn’t just changed how I move, it has improved my health, too. My blood pressure, once difficult to manage even with medication, is now in a normal range. Overall, I feel healthier, stronger, and more confident than I have in years.

Most importantly, this experience has shown me that I can take on challenges I once thought were out of reach.

I’m grateful to Beth for encouraging me every step of the way. And I’m especially thankful to my son, Ryan, who first reached out to Beth three years ago this August. That one decision was the beginning of a journey that has truly changed my life.”

It’s your turn. Emerge.

This is Maddie and Nicole Halstead, daughter and mother.

Both college competitive runners.
They train separately and together and have been with Coach Jackie for over 3 years.

Nicole had a hip replacement and has gotten STRONG and is back running half marathons.
Maddie has trained every off-season during her high school career.

She is now about to start her sophomore year running at the collegiate level.


Nicole says,

“I am so grateful for not only how much stronger I feel after working out with Jackie for these past few years, but also for how much I’ve learned that I am able to use in my solo workouts.
She is so encouraging and responsive to the goals I have and my individual needs and really helped me come back stronger after my hip replacement! The facility is great and it’s fun and encouraging to work out alongside people of different ages.”

Well done Nicole, Maddie and Coach Jackie!

This is Janet H.

She’s dropped 30 pounds.

She explains:

“For me, training with Sheree is about finding a sustainable weight that supports my mobility and improves my quality of life as I age.”

Coach Sheree says:

“Not only is she crushing her goals, she keeps every session full of laughs 😂💪

Since 2023, she’s been consistent—through the ups and downs—and is now down 30 lbs 👏

This is what real progress looks like: not chasing quick fixes, but showing up, building habits, and focusing on health and strength for the long run.

Proud of her journey and excited for what’s ahead.”

It happens in a split second.

And then time stands still.

Any parent knows that witnessing a kids sports injury, and then the recovery process that follows, can be excruciating but extremely encouraging and uplifting.

Here, Robyn L tells the story of her daughter Maggie.

From injury to incredible comeback, this one is awesome.

Robyn says,

“Maggie Mae started her year off not so hot needing not one but two massive surgeries on her knee after dislocating for a second time on the soccer field last October and wheeled off the field in an ambulance.

She had both surgeries at the same time Dec 30.

Due to the extent, it would be a 9-12 month recovery period.

She was devastated to say the least. Those that know her well know soccer ⚽️ is her life. Watching her these last 7 months sitting on the sideline only has been heartbreaking… 💔 but she worked her tail off.

And came back in S E V E N months!

Her care team was nothing short of amazing.

Dr. George Paletta —— her ortho absolute gem, brilliant, and just one of the most caring humans you will ever meet

Shanna — his PA same all the way around and related to Maggie over and over

Brian at Excel Therapy - has been her PT from day one. He pushed and pushed and cheered and cheered

Julie Smith at Emerge - her conditioning coach getting her post rehab back pushing and cheering her along

Maggie Mae ….. you are such an inspiration my dear and simply amazing. You deserve it all — the comeback is better than the setback and you proved that!”

Well done Maggie, mom, and everyone else who played a part in this remarkable recovery.

It’s your turn. Emerge.

🚨 33.6 POUNDS STRONGER IN 10 DAYS...WITHOUT LIFTING A SINGLE WEIGHT! 🚨

My client, Phil Cox, a devoted father and astute professional, had been struggling with a disc and nerve issue for over a year. :(

Loss of strength.
Loss of fine motor control.
Even dropping things.

He'd tried a number of things but just couldn't seem to find a way to improve.

It took trust and a leap of faith on his part to give someone over a thousand miles away a chance to see if I could help remotely and I couldn't be happier he did. :)

In just 10 days of nervous system-first coaching together, here’s what happened:

>> Grip strength with elbow bent at 90°?
+19.9 lbs increase in max effort strength.

>> Grip strength with elbow extended at 180°?
+13.7 lbs improvement.

In comparison, these types of gains would normally take weeks using a strength training approach WITHOUT a nerve compression issue present.

Most people suffering disc and nerve issues find that strength gains are completely elusive and even painful to attempt.

That’s 33.6 pounds of strength reclaimed, not from “grinding” harder, but by taking the right approach.

No dumbbells.
No max reps.
Just a steady, safe, and skillful approach focused on:

✅ Creating safety for the nervous system
✅ Opening space around sensitive nerves
✅ Rebuilding trust between brain, body, and breath

You see, when your brain perceives a threat (especially to a nerve) it automatically limits your strength.

It's protective.

But when we restore safety and give the nervous system what it craves?

You get back potential you never really lost.

It was just locked away.

🎉 I’m so proud of Phil!

His trust, courage, and diligence are paying off.

If you’re reading this and thinking:

“That kind of change would be life-changing for me…”
..you might be right.

Message me, Coach Jeff Powell, directly: https://m.me/jeff.powell.3538

This might be the start of your strength returning, too.

Staying fit and healthy with a busy household can be ALMOST impossible.

Time.

There is so little of it.

And, after soccer and meetings and school and homework...

It's amazing what can be achieved when you have a focused, goal-directed workout plan.

If you've been contemplating improving your fitness, but time is of the essence, have an Emerge coach be your guide.

Your story.
Our Guidance.
It's your turn.
