Lifelong Learning

Kate and Chris talk about life in quarantine.

On this episode, I'm learning from Emmy Simpkins. Emmy is Co-Owner and a Level 3 Crossfit Trainer at Crossfit Speakeasy in Belmar, New Jersey. Emmy is a Competitive Crossfit Athlete and was a former Division 1 Soccer Player at Rutgers University from 2008-2013.

Emmy is an amazing coach, trainer, and friend who motivates everyone she meets to be their best. You'll find some great resources from Emmy to help you dig deep after hearing her story!

I can’t believe it’s been two years since I’ve talked about Aquafaba! In that time it has become mainstream and is even popping up in products all throughout the grocery store. I’m super thankful to find it showing up in products I love because having to be gluten-free and egg-free made for a lot of pre-made products off-limits for my consumption.

I've been doing Crossfit since May 2019 and Chris joined in August 2019. We chat about our experiences.

We go over some of the basics of Crossfit and what we've learned, as well as explaining some common misconceptions and our experience in joining our new CrossFit community.

After podcasting for over 33 episodes straight, I learned quite a bit about podcasting that I had never imagined learning within that time and took a little time to reflect on my experience. Here's a little more about what I've learned and what you can expect coming soon!

We’re testing out the possibility of podcasting via the iPhone and FTP releases. I haven’t learned much about this yet, but this is a quick experiment to see how it goes! Send us feedback on your experience as the listener: [email protected] or @mrnesi on T

Way back when the dinosaurs roamed at the end of 2008, Sandy Smith started paying a little bit more attention to my debt.
