Today I speak with Canadian IFBB Pro Tessa Baresssi, She won her pro card at age 20, and placed 4th in Pro debut at Vancouver Pro Show. Tessa is a huge advocate for mental health in sports. She works as a posing and lifestyle coach for her company Rzlnt Fitness. Tessa shares how the sudden loss of her father when she was 18 years old shopped the way she views life and how she approaches her goals. 

 

She has felt with eating disorders and mental health struggles, and has so much to share that can help. Tessa is so open and our conversation goes deep! You don’t want to miss it!
