On this week's episode, we are joined by Suzanne Vita Battinelli, founder and CEO of The U, a full-service, virtual health and wellness provider. We dive into the relationship between fitness and mindset, finding motivation within ourselves, pushing through discomfort, and setting realistic fitness goals.

In motion more often than not, Suzanne Vita is a leader, change maker and coach whose philosophy is heavily rooted in the concept of mind over matter. She’s guided by her belief that both the body and mind were designed to progress, even if moving forward requires taking a step back to reflect.

Through a combination of movement, mindfulness, and written and spoken word, Suzanne’s approach to empowerment directly addresses the barriers many of us have self-constructed to stand in our own way. Her work is insightful, progressive and, at times, uncomfortable, but the end result is an image in the mirror that reflects back the version of ourselves we always wanted to be.

While Suzanne’s ultimate love is communicating in a way that makes people stop and think, her day job involves being the founder and CEO of The U, a full-service, virtual health and wellness provider headquartered in Stamford, CT. Her brand’s Prescribed Fitness approach speaks directly to the way she encourages all of us to live our lives: with intention, strategy and plenty of opportunities for play.
