Vashti Ali, Accounts Receivable Representative, beamed and expounded that
“This has been the greatest journey ever, and we work for the best company
in the world. Garden of Life has changed my life in so many ways, and I just
want to help others achieve extraordinary health.”
While getting to a healthy weight is important, maintaining that weight is just
as vital. So, employees are being encouraged to continue on their wellness
journey. There may even be a few surprise incentives for those who maintain
their weight loss.
The Challenge was not just focused on weight loss but also on healthy
eating, exercise and improving overall health and well-being. There was also
the added benefit of friendly competition and strengthening camaraderie
across departments. Cross-functional teams were formed and each team
lead nominated a VIP, who exhibited the greatest support and continuously
motivated others.
The team spirit continues as groups congregate to do workouts and gather in
the café to do shots of SPORT Energy + Focus and Recovery. The company has
also continued its partnership with the local Orange Theory Fitness studio and
employees love to compare their Splat Points and calories burned.
The Get Fit Challenge achieved the goal of helping employees attain an overall
healthier lifestyle. Empowering Extraordinary Health ® is more than
a mission. . .it’s a way of life.
