Today I speak with IFBB Bikini Pro Carly Lamberts who has been competing since 2019 and has competed in 210 shows. She earned her Pro card in 2024 at NPC Universe. Outside of competing, she is a wife to another bodybuilder and dog mom to two corgis. She works full time in sales for Red Bull Distribution and as a posing coach. She shares how bodybuilding impacted the trajectory of her life, from trying to shrink herself to be happy to building her dream body and finding confidence, leaving a toxic relationship and finding her forever person!
