Fellow online fitness coach Christy Ewing joins me for the first time to talk all things health + fitness! This was a fun conversation to kind of compare notes as fitness coaches, yet share our different experiences in the industry.

Christy is a Mom of 4 boys, so she totally understands the chaos of motherhood and how difficult it can be to prioritize exercises and nutrition. She shares some awesome tips on how Mom's can start moving the needle towards their goals using simple and sustainable methods.

We share some insight on how we like to keep our health + fitness practices fresh and fun, as well as some mindset hacks and ways that you can rewire your thoughts to better align with the person you want to be.

Be sure to follow and give The FitLife Podcast a 5 star review if you enjoyed this episode!!

Jacqui talks about the nuances of SkinnyTok, why it might work, but the caveats that need to be considered for the sustainable aspect of our goals.
