About the Episode

This is that time of year when you’ve probably decided to sit down and focus on your goals, and how you want to show up in the world. Many people usually take this time to work on their fitness goals. After binging at holiday parties for weeks they’ve had their eye on 2022 to take their health back…then, they’ll probably quit going to the gym in February and go back to exactly what they did last year.

In this episode, we get some advice on how to make sure you don’t repeat that cycle and fall into the same trap. We’re joined by Allison Jackson. She is a NASM-certified personal trainer, Precision Nutrition-certified coach, and pro masters figure competitor. Allison is also the host of the Fit to Lead podcast…and so much more.

We’ve never been big fans of New Year’s resolutions because we believe that change happens when you decide to take action on your goals…not some arbitrary date on a calendar. However, we do believe there is something significant about the start of a new year. It’s a symbolic chance at a restart, a clean slate…simply starting over on things that matter to us.

Join us as we set new goals for ourselves and teach you  5 Simple Ways to Improve Your Wellness in the new year (SPOILER - There’s actually way more than 5)!
