The Championship Lifestyle Podcast : Strength Training, Nutrition, and Mindset

Welcome back Champions to this week's Biosteel Breakdown. 

We're taking a closer look at a not so recent nutrition trend and how good it really is for you, the Juice Cleanse! With the growth of cold-pressed juice companies and our habitual desire for a 'fast solution' it made sense that we should unpack this on early in the New Year.

We're taking a closer look at Sugar! Which seems appropriate as we put the holiday season behind us. Is it just a harmless treat or toxic attacker. Sugar has permeated all areas of our food and is something well worth exploring.

The #CLP episode this week was a knockout and we loved sitting down with 11-time National Champion, 2011 Pan Am Champion and 2016 Olympian, Mandy Bujold. Mandy was amazing and had us out to her home to talk about her 13-year boxing career, helping to pioneer female boxing both within Canada and Internationally, and what might be next for her. Mandy's dedication and commitment to her craft is immediately obvious and we loved hearing her approach to training and competition. If you have a young athlete in your life this is the perfect episode, full of advice and inspiration for what it takes to succeed at the very highest level. Please rate and review! We love the feedback!

This week on the #CLP another superwoman who has spent her entire life solving interesting problems in every role imaginable, from cleaning cottages to high-level health care. It was an absolute pleasure to sit down and chat with Dr. Meghan Walker and learn about her journey, how a personal health struggle led her into the office of a Naturopathic Doctor and exposed her to an idea and approach that has shaped her life. A Naturopathic Doctor and Entrepologist Meghan now hosts her own podcast, advises and aids practitioners in clinical business and is about to roll out a brand new online coaching platform. She was kind enough to share some amazing insights over the course of this episode and the passion and intelligence she brings to her work is immediately evident. We touch on her personal journey through the world of health and tech, the areas of struggle for her go-getter clients, passion versus purpose and living a life with intention. It was an amazing episode and we hope you enjoy listening half as much as we enjoyed recording.
