Today, we’d like to introduce you to Belinda Allen. Belinda was introduced to us by the brilliant and talented Hyacinth Tucker.
Hi Belinda, we’re so thrilled to have you sharing your story with us today. Maybe we can kick things off by having you introduce yourself to our readers? We’d love to have you go into your story and how you got to where you are today.
Hello, I’m Belinda Allen, the Empowerment Cheerleader and CEO of TRU 2 FITNESS HEALTH (T2FH). My mission is to cheer leaders on and support them in achieving their fullest potential.
Let me take you back to 2019, a pivotal moment in my career as a surgical nurse. I was immersed in a world where stress and burnout were the norm. I saw countless dedicated professionals, including myself, trapped in a relentless cycle of overwork and self-sacrifice. We were pushing ourselves to the limit, often compromising our own health and well-being for the demands of our careers.
It was heart-wrenching to witness colleagues who felt they had no choice but to suffer in silence, accepting burnout as a part of the job neglecting their own well-being because they felt they had no choice. I knew there had to be a better way.This realization ignited a passion in me to change that narrative. I knew that no one should have to choose between their career and their well-being.
Battling burnout in high-pressure environments isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a reality. Leaders and professionals are often caught in a cycle of stress and exhaustion, struggling to find balance and maintain their productivity.
So, I founded TRU 2 FITNESS HEALTH with a vision to break that cycle. At T2FH, we’re dedicated to transforming workplace culture, addressing burnout, and promoting holistic well-being. I was driven by a deep commitment to help myself physically and mentally but I had to go back for my fellow nurse leaders and professionals, helping them to thrive, without having to sacrifice their health.
Although companies were increasingly aware of the detrimental effects of burnout and stress on productivity and morale, and are addressing issues such as absenteeism, lost productivity, and the negative impacts on their bottom line…..something was still “off” I decided to better serve the community by partnering with leaders and becoming an advocate for their mental wellbeing.
I begin focusing on cheering leaders on and taking proactive steps to address their mental health needs. Since then, I have provided companies and participating leaders with comprehensive wellbeing tools, creating safe spaces designed to tackle feelings of overwhelm and dissatisfaction with reboot workshops, events, developing customized cheering audios, and leading dynamic live seminars.
A key initiative has been the LeaderHER to Leadership program, which emphasizes nurturing the growth and development of emerging leaders. This program was designed from the voices in the back of the room, ensuring they are not left feeling overlooked or passed over for promotions. It provides the support and resources needed to thrive and advance confidently in their careers fostering their growth and development.
Every Leader Deserves A Breather – Many face mental blocks and brain fog that can stifle creativity and productivity. I’ve seen firsthand how these challenges impact not just individual performance but also overall team morale.
That’s where our First Class Reboot program and Breakaway Call methodology come in. First Class Reboot is crafted to help you navigate those moments of uncertainty and routine, while Breakaway Calls provide a three-step approach to mental tune-ups, recentering, and resetting, designed to help you manage stress, overcome burnout, and stay at the top of your game without sacrificing your well-being.
Through this work, I aim to transform workplace culture and offer proactive strategies to tackle these issues head-on. My approach integrates strategic motivation through inner cheers, reflective practices, time management, execution and work-life balance, all aimed at transforming workplace experience. No one should ever have to choose between their career and their health. I’m here to ensure you never have to.
