What’s the secret to a positive relationship with exercise? How can you build a life you love? What lessons can we all learn from Kung Fu Panda?

We talk about all this and more with our latest guest, who really needs little introduction. A trainer, speaker, entrepreneur and author with 20 books to her name, Michelle Bridges has been at the forefront of the fitness industry for decades. From teaching workout classes in leg warmers at school to training up a storm on The Biggest Loser and heading up one of the original online lifestyle programs – the 12 Week Body Transformation, which celebrates its 10th birthday next year. She has her own ranges of kitchenware, ready meals, fitness equipment and activewear.

Full disclaimer, though: this episode isn’t really about exercise. Sure, we’ll chat about Michelle’s workouts, fitness trends and the changes she’s seen over the years. But, we’ll also talk about the most crucial thing for building healthy habits, which is mindset – and Michelle’s strategies for looking after yours.

Plus:

• The power of saying no
• Her meditation revelation
• Her life as a parent
• The magic of finding your fuel
