Meet Your Trainer - Paola Mayfield

Buenas! I would like to share a little bit about me.  

My name is Paola Mayfield and I am from Bucaramanga, Colombia. I grew up living throughout Colombia but found myself living in Bogota where I met my husband, Russ. Before I met my husband, I was a model and had my own company as a shoe designer. I always wanted to have my own business and have been working towards that since I was a young girl. When I moved to Oklahoma to be with my husband, I sold my company to start a new chapter. Honestly, I didn't know what to do or how to start all over.

When I first moved to the United States, I had the opportunity to be part of a reality show on TLC called 90 Day Fiancé and reality spin-off show called 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? I continued modeling and started acting, performing in films, commercials, and music videos. I also began to film and document my fitness journey, posting and sharing throughout my social media. I received such positive responses from my followers that I decided to become certified as a personal trainer to help others reach their fitness goals as well as live a healthy and active life.

It wasn’t easy for me and I love who I have become because I know that with hard work and dedication we all can achieve our goals. My fitness journey started with my desire to look good but now has become my passion, work, motivation, and lifestyle. I want to inspire people, help them to look and feel strong, and most importantly to feel healthy and happy!

My goal is for others to recognize me for my hard work, dedication, and love for fitness. I have never felt more confident and secure with my healthy and happy lifestyle, and with this, I want to empower others. It took me a while to find my passion, but as I always say, it’s never too late to learn and do what we love. Here I am doing what I love and enjoying every moment of it. Today I see a huge difference, not only in my body but my energy levels are better than ever.

I’m grateful that I’ve found my passion in fitness as well as my career path. Today I am who I am thanks to my followers and husband’s influence. So, I want to send a BIG thanks to my fans and especially my husband who has always supported me and believed in me, because without him I would not be where I am now.
