Live Life to the Fittest with Jeremy Woodward

Erin Girzone has been awesome friend over the years! She founded Good Health is a Habit Wellness studio in Waterford, Maine. Erin is honored to operate a business with a mission of helping others to improve their quality of life through mindful movement. At the studio, everyone is seen as a body that is designed to move, and a mind that is designed to move and grow.

With Erin's help you will break down the box you stuck yourself and discover you can move well, and you are incredibly strong. It became clear to Erin that good health is the result and culmination of one's habits. As Erin works with you on a physical level, she is also supporting a shift in your mindset, a profound step that allows you to change your actions. Erin encourages you to stop judging yourself, stop worrying about all the other details and start with something small and realistic.

In this episode, we will talk about somatic movement and gain some insight on who Erin is, what her and her family represent as well as a little bit about our friendship.

Today we are joined by Kaleb Austin, a country music star. Kaleb grew up in a large family of musicians and was constantly exposed to live music, mostly country and rock. This cultivated a deep love and connection with performing from a very early age, specifically performing country music. At age 14, he began with a few guitar lessons, which quickly became useful for writing his own music. Songwriting blossomed into a creative outlet for him to express his life. During his senior year of high school, his songwriting skill became useful as he found out that he was going to be a young father. Predictably, he didn't have a clue on how to express the whirlwind of emotions at such a young age, so he turned to pen and paper.

Over the course of a few years, Kaleb decided to take songwriting to the next level and moved to Nashville to learn from the best in the world. He immediately got busy writing and co-writing as many songs as possible. After almost a year, he moved back to Utah due to family reasons; however, he returned armed with the songwriting skills he needed and penned his first number one hit single, Sound of the South. On January 19th, 2021, the single debuted number one on iTunes country charts. The third most downloaded country song that week.

Kaleb attributes the success of his single to his wife, God, and a massive social media following on TikTok and Instagram. Kaleb was voted TikTok's country artist of the year and he just recently released a song, Cheyenne, that debuted at number two of the iTunes chart.

In this episode, we talk about Kaleb's journey, how important it is to never give up on our dreams, and how our experiences mold us into the people that we are today.

Today, we are joined by Derek Fitzgerald. He is the founder of the Recycled Man Foundation, endurance athlete, and speaker. Derek is a survivor of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, heart failure, and a heart transplant. After receiving his lifesaving transplant in 2011, Derek entered the world of endurance sports and became dedicated to helping others going through their own healthcare journeys.

He founded the Recycled Man Foundation, a non-profit organization created to improve the quality of life with those affected by significant health challenges. Derek has upheld his life's mission to honor his donor's gift. He has competed in over 90 endurance events and is the only known cancer survivor and heart transplant recipient to complete a full iron distance race in the allotted time. When he's not training or speaking, he can be found spending plenty of time with his family.
