  • Episode 17 - What to Expect When You're Competing LIVE Q & A

    LIVE from the 2020 Center Stage Athletics Women's Life Athlete Retreat, Brandi and Tina host a Q&A with their attendees. Learn from those who have experienced it first hand; the good, bad and just plain old truth about what it's like to compete. Why is peeing in a cup recommended? What's the tanning process really like? What the heck is a reverse diet? What is it like to be on stage? And why is Patty so obsessed with KitKats? This is a no holds barred, show and tell it like it is from real women, with real questions and real stage experience. Have burning questions of your own that we didn't answer? Don't forget to join us afterwards for discussion in our Coaching & Cocktails FB Discussion group!

  • Episode 16: A Day in the Life (aka our daily ramblings)

    Ever wonder about what Brandi and Tina do all day? How glamorous is the life of one who works from home and runs their own coaching business. In Episode 16, we'll give you all a  peek inside our daily lives. As we were leading up to our retreat, we had to stay 'light' with our topic for the week. Some of the conversation may be a little rambling, but that's really what we're like in real life so have a listen and enjoy a glimpse inside the "glamorous life" of being a coach!

  • Episode 15: Fat is NOT a Feeling and Other Body Image Woes.

    CAUTION: Images in the mirror may be distorted by social media constructed ideas of beauty and over-filtered highlight reels. In Episode 15, Tina & Brandi dig deep into the topic of body image and how social media has run amuck in the minds and emotions of women (and men) everywhere! We discuss strategies and ways to flip the script on the negative stories you tell and say #fuckthescale while still being able to work toward your goals while maintaining your sanity.
