Ep. #141 On today’s episode of Pursuit of Wellness, I sit down with the amazing Sami Spalter to chat about all things fitness, nutrition, friendships, and healing. We dig into our fitness journeys, the highs and lows of finding what works for our bodies, and the struggles of navigating trauma, coping mechanisms, and saying “yes” to life’s challenges. We also dive into the power of female friendships, how to build your support circle, and why it’s crucial to nurture your “front row” who cheer you on. From hitting rock bottom to lifting weights, we talk about finding confidence, feeling grounded, and embracing our unique paths. Plus, we get real about food choices, hormones, and why moving your body is a privilege worth celebrating!
