Bailey Turner in Lovely Blush Top and Jeans Posing

Hi, I’m Bailey!

I am a 26-year-old entrepreneur from central Wisconsin. I currently live in Southern Utah with my husband Zach, our daughter Marlow, & two morkies, Jax & Ziggy. Zach & I grew up in a small town in central Wisconsin together. We moved to Utah from Minnesota & we LOVE it here! Our favorite thing to do here is hiking, it’s so neat that we now live only an hour away from Zion! If you’ve never been, you definitely should try to make the trip out, there is SO much to do & the beauty of Utah is unreal!

Fitness has always been a passion of mine & I am lucky enough to have a job in the fitness industry because of my passion for helping others start their fitness journey. Most people know me by my fitness Instagram handle, @bodyfitbalance.

On top of my passion for fitness, I also have a passion for sharing home decor, fashion inspo, recipes & life experiences/stories. Because of this, I figured it would be fun to create my own blog to share things on!

I love being able to help others in any way I can. I hope that I can help you in one way or another on here too!

quick look at me

Postpartum Transformation Bailey Turner

2023

The year of my amazing PP transformation! At 5 months PP I was in the absolute trenches. I hated the way I looked & felt so I decided to make a change. I spent the following 6 months tracking my macros, completing our challenge workouts & being SUPER consistent at hitting my daily goals (nutrition, water, movement & sleep)! I now feel my very best & am stronger than I was pre-pregnancy!
