You Started Something: Here’s What to Do in Month #2

by | Uncategorized

Last updated: September 18, 2026

Here is something I want to say to everyone who is currently on Day 8, 9, or 10 of the Big A$$ Salad Challenge:

You are doing something harder than it sounds.

Not the salad. The salad is fine. What is hard is the consistency.

Showing up on the Wednesday when you are tired and the last thing you want to think about is building a bowl. Posting it anyway. Tagging the community anyway. Doing the thing you said you would do even when the novelty has completely worn off.

That is what Week 2 is. And that is exactly where you are right now.

I want to talk about what you do with that momentum on October 10th.

WHY THE TIMING BETWEEN THE CHALLENGE AND THE WELLNESS FAIR IS INTENTIONAL

The Big A$$ Salad Challenge runs September 14th through October 5th.

The Complete Performance Wellness Fair is October 10th.

That five-day gap is not accidental.

We designed the quarter this way because we wanted the Wellness Fair to be a celebration of something – not just an event you show up to from a standing start. We wanted you to walk in the door having just done something. Having just proven something to yourself.

The person who finishes Day 21 of the challenge and then walks into the Wellness Fair five days later is a different version of themselves than the one who shows up without any of that behind them. The conversations are different. The questions are more specific. The willingness to actually commit to a next step is higher.

You are building toward October 10th right now, whether you knew it or not.

WHAT THE WELLNESS FAIR ACTUALLY IS

I want to be honest about what the Wellness Fair is – and what it is not.

It is not a seminar. It is not a series of presentations you sit through and then leave with a tote bag and a business card.

It is a day where the entire Complete Performance coaching team is in one room – available, approachable, and genuinely there to help you figure out your next step.

Here is what that looks like in practice:

JORDAN IS THERE ALL DAY

If you have been reading these emails all summer – the menopause content, the challenge emails, the whole-body wellness conversation – and you have questions, or you want to talk about what working with a coach actually looks like for you specifically, this is the day to have that conversation. No DM required. No appointment needed.

Just walk up.

I will be talking about Stress Free Fat Loss, MenoStrong, the GLP-1 and menopause coaching work, and whatever is most relevant to where you are right now.

BRIAN IS THERE ALL DAY

If you have a fall sport athlete who just finished their season and you want to talk about the off-season – what those five months should look like, what the training block covers, how CP builds athletes for the next level – Brian is your conversation.

If your athlete’s season is still running, he will talk about in-season training, what is worth maintaining right now versus what waits for November.

COACHES ARE THERE ALL DAY

If you are someone who has been meaning to start training consistently and you just keep not doing it – our semi-private program is the conversation to have. Come meet the coach, see the environment, understand what showing up twice a week actually looks like in practice.

REFERRAL PARTNERS ARE THERE TOO

The Wellness Fair is not just the CP coaching team. Our referral partners – practitioners we trust and have worked alongside – will be there as well. Real conversations with real practitioners about the parts of your health that go beyond what a gym can address.

WHO SHOULD COME

Everyone. And I mean that.

The CP member who wants to go deeper on what they are doing and figure out the right next step.

The person who has been curious about Complete Performance but has never walked through the door. This is the lowest-pressure entry point we have ever created.

The challenge participant who just finished 21 days of intentional eating and wants to talk about what comes next – nutrition coaching, strength training, the full picture.

The parent of a fall sport athlete who has questions about the off-season and what development should look like between now and next preseason.

The woman who has been navigating perimenopause or menopause and has not found the right support yet.

The man who is 45 and realizes he has been meaning to get serious about his strength for three years.

You. If you are reading this, you.

HOW TO MAKE THE MOST OF OCTOBER 10TH

Come with one question. Not a list. One honest question about where you are and what you are trying to figure out. The more specific it is the more useful the conversation will be.

Give yourself time. This is not a 20-minute drop-in. Plan to spend a few hours. Move between coaches. Sit in on whatever sessions are happening. Let the day do its work.

Bring someone. The conversations people have at the Wellness Fair are better when someone who knows them is there. A friend who can hear the same information and help you process it. A partner who understands the goals you are working toward. A parent whose athlete you want the coach to meet.

Come to the challenge finish line party. Challenge participants who complete all 21 days will be celebrated at the Wellness Fair. You did the work. Come let us acknowledge it in person.
