BRANDI SHANE; Key to Your Universe, Confirmation Bias, Manifesting, Representation, Self-Awareness

Today I speak with IFBB Pro Brandi Shane, an ISSA certified personal trainer, certified nutrition coach, a 3-time top 5 National NPC Bikini Athlete, and now a 3 time overall winner. She woke her Pro card and overall title at NPC Nationals 2022.  Although she has always been an athlete, she didn’t get serious about my own fitness goals until 2015 when I discovered the world of bodybuilding and fell in love with the science of fitness and nutrition.    She has seen how women have delayed or struggled through their fitness journey due to “gym-timidation” or confusion on how or where to start because of the rise of fitness influencers on social media. This is why she is passionate about coaching women to reach their fitness and nutrition goals. She has a podcast called The Real Raw Real wit two other bikini athletes.    TOPICS COVERED -vision boards and setting intentions -the power of self awareness mindset -mental health -reaching the pro level and thinking like a “pro” -maintaining a post-show reverse -marriage/partnership with a spouse that doesn’t understand bodybuilding -empowering and inspiring amateur athletes -shift your mindset, transform your body and nourish your soul   CONNECT WITH CELESTE: Website: http://www.celestial.fit Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/celestial_fit/ All Links: http://www.celestial.fit/links.html   CONNECT WITH BRANDI: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/b.shane_ifbbpro/ Real Raw Real Podcast: https://www.instagram.com/therealrawreal/   TIME STAMPS 1:00 introduction 4:26 visualization and journaling 10:26 backing up affirmations with action 20:57 choosing to love ourselves 27:55 growth in relationships 33:39 overcoming doubt with proof 39:08 learning through competing  46:28 taking time off 49:20 being in alignment with the win 51:15 the process of getting a pro card versus getting it 56:15 feeling burnout 58:11 starting a podcast & speaking at CCTS 68:29 relationships and competing 79:08 using an Olympia platform 84:57 representation matters 91:30 advice to competitors     CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE FREE FOOD RELATIONSHIP COACHING SERIES   CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE FREE POST SHOW BLUES COACHING SERIES   LEARN MORE AND APPLY FOR MY 5 WEEK FOOD RELATIONSHIP HEALING & DISCOVERY COACHING PROGRAM   FOR OTHER FREE RESOURCES, LIVE EVENTS, AND WAYS TO WORK WITH CELESTE CLICK HERE
