Today, we’re going back to Nicole’s fitness roots at William & Mary, where she met Sadie Lincoln, founder of barre3, a fitness company focused on teaching people to be balanced in body and empowered from within.

Sadie takes us through barre3’s evolution, from the moment she realized the fitness industry was failing people, to now leading a full-blown movement made up of millions of people focused on body positivity, being empowered, and redefining what success in fitness means.

Plus, they talk:

-The realities of sacrificial tradeoffs 

-Using pain from your origin story to inform your purpose

-How barre3’s values helped them get through COVID
