Welcome to another awesome episode of our podcast! In today's chat, your host Karena Calhoun sits down with Beth Learn, an incredible fitness expert and owner of Fit2B. It's a fitness business that's all about providing fun and holistic home workout videos for women who have brought wonderful little humans into this world.
Now, in this episode, Karena and Beth dive into a really important topic: the true essence of being healthy and fit. They both believe that it's not about chasing some unrealistic "perfect" body image. Nope, it's all about embracing and celebrating our unique selves with all the amazing experiences our bodies have gone through, including childbirth and surgeries.
Beth is such a champion of body positivity, and she encourages all the ladies out there to tune in and truly listen to what their bodies are telling them. She talks about the incredible power of working out with our natural cycles and giving our bodies exactly what they need at any given moment.
One of the major takeaways from this conversation is the idea of inclusivity. Beth and Karena highlight the importance of recognizing that everybody is different, and that's something to be celebrated. It's all about embracing diversity and loving ourselves, no matter our shape, size, or any physical changes we've experienced along the way.
So, if you're ready to feel inspired and empowered, get comfy, grab a pen and notepad, and join us as we explore the beauty of being healthy and listening to our bodies. Let's dive in!
