Sitting down with Jaime Filer to talk about how mental health and physical health are euqal important, and how to improve yours. We also talk about discovering your sexuality later in life. Before Jaime had her first girlfriend, she was engaged with a man, but felt something missing, therefor she knew she had to end her relationship with her fiance, and discover the thing she felt she was missing. Jaimes first girlfriend, was her masseuse. This didn't last, and after a year Jaime got in contact with her now wife Katie who she lives with in Florida. 

Leading up to meeting Katie and moving to florida, Jaime was the editor and chief for one of the biggest body building magazines in Canada. When she got in contact with Katie, she realized that she had to meet the girl. This led to falling in love. While trying to navigate a new relationship with long distance, having to figure out how to quit her job, get a visa, get a green card, get married and get a new job, all in the spand of a year, Jaime experienced a lot of anxiety, because often you'll take these steps in a longer amount of time, but she had to get things figured out fast, and she didn't want to bring this negative energy into a new relationship, nobody wants. This was when Jaime knew she had to figure out how she was going to manage her anxiety, and that's when and why she started reading and generally consuming as much about self-development as she possibly could. 

She didn't find it hard telling her parents and friends about dating a girl. Listen and get some advice from Jaime about this! 

We also talk about Jaimes exerince with eating disorder, how she dealt and managed to come back to life with a healthier realtionship to food and training. 

How does Jaime balance family life and work life? She says she doesn't, but does manage time to both. Listen to hear advice on that, if you stuggle with the balance in that!
