Staying in Tune with Yourself

Wait! Have you ever paused and asked yourself these questions: What drives you in your bikini journey? Relevance, success or self-love? Are you restricting yourself? Are you denying your body? How do you find balance? You probably should. Your answer to these questions could be your turning point to breaking that barrier.

We often focus so much on what awaits us on the finish line to an extent we forget about ourselves and end up not touching the line at all. This then becomes our self-imposed source of demotivation. I did the digging and found Angeles Burke who has gained industry experience long enough to address these questions for you. Stay tuned as we unpack the titbits.

Angeles is an IFBB Bikini Pro, AFAA certified group fitness instructor, personal trainer and a fitness expert. She has been competing, coaching and teaching for the past 6 years. Noticeable in her eloquence, her public speaking skills are on another level, something she is passionate about and has been doing for quite a while. Through passion and hard work, Angeles not only made it to Olympia stage, but she was also published on Oxygen Magazine. She also works with brands such as Celcius and Dimatize.    

In this episode, Angeles gives insider tips on exactly how to get sponsorships. She also talks about how modesty is her best policy while representing the fitness brand and values that she aligns with. She also discusses her decision to leave the stage and the process she worked through to ditch her scale

Let’s go!
