Welcome to the Self-Care Redefined Series on The Five Pillars of Foundational Self-Care. The Five Pillars of Foundational Self-Care are an evidence-based framework of healthy habits that directly support mood, energy, and mental health. 

In today’s episode, I’m interviewing the owners of Making of Champions (M.O.C.) Fitness, Jennifer Dadigan and Dre Williams. Dre is a master trainer with a bachelor’s degree in exercise science and a master’s degree in human health kinetics. Jen is a retired massage therapist and 20-year fitness industry veteran with tons of knowledge and experience. 

In this episode, you’ll hear why a strict exercise routine may actually be harmful to mental health, how to craft an effective routine without a gym membership, and how to trick your central nervous system into releasing endorphins. Additionally, Jen shares how to create a metaphorical savings account for health and wellness using her body bank framework and Dre shares his unique priority calculator.
