Cheryl Broughton has been an inspiration to thousands as an author, Fitness TV show host and producer, mind & body boot camp founder, mindset coach, aerial coach, and professional speaker.
In 2001 she launched The Fitness Edge Boot Camp - a seven-time award-winning mind and body fitness program that featured fitness, nutrition, and life coaching. She has also been a published columnist for over fifteen years and has graced the covers of numerous magazines and newspapers.
At age 42, Cheryl was diagnosed with advanced arthritis and was told she needed both knees replaced. The doctor told her she could no longer do all the physical activities and get used to having pain for the rest of her life. After going into a slump - Cheryl pulled herself back up she made a list of all the physical activities that one with arthritis should not be able to do and was determined to do them all! Learning Aerial Arts was one of the things on that list. Although it was challenging, it was easy on her joints and improved her flexibility. She can do things in her 50’s that she couldn’t do in her 20s - including the splits! (BTW - She opted out of surgery, took some great supplements, and started healing visualizations and mediations).
Cheryl now teaches and performs in aerial and can be seen in remote aerial performances between mountain peaks, off the side of cliffs, and over lakes - sometimes as high as 140 feet in the air!
At age 50, Cheryl was hit with two unexpected challenges that hit her harder than anything before - she was let go from a company she helped build for over ten years and months later lost a long-time boyfriend. Everything she thought was secure was gone in an instant. After pulling herself up one more time, she went on a three-year deep dive mission studying with the best authors, mentors, and leaders. She went on retreats, masterminds, intensives, workshops, and more.
And along this journey, she discovered a method that changed her life so much, she became trained in this method and started sharing this knowledge with others. She was so inspired, she couldn’t stop there. She wrote a book called Your Epic Encore and then created Your Epic Encore Coaching, Your Epic Encore Youtube Channel, Epic Encore Meditation Channel, and has created online courses.
One thing is for sure; If Cheryl can reinvent herself and create the life of her dreams (after age 50), then others can do it too! Cheryl loves inspiring others and sharing her message - that it’s truly never too late to create YOUR EPIC ENCORE!
