This week, we welcome back the lovely Michael Ramsey, co-founder of Strong Pilates. Rams was first on the pod back in 2022 and so much has happened in the world of Strong since then so we got stuck into a little catch up and update.

Whilst I may be a bit biased because I genuinely love the workout and have been friends with some of the lovelies up in HQ, having been in the pilates space for a long time, it’s been really amazing to watch the evolution of Strong from pre-conception way back in 2018, through to the global expansion that the brand is currently going through today.

Truly the black sheep of the pilates space, Strong has developed a concept like no other and continues to innovate and pave the way for strong presence in the UK, Asia and now the USA.

This week, I’m coming to you with a solo ep all on letting go of the need to control (which I know we all have from time to time) and how to have a more stress free life!

There’s so many things that I can reflect back on in my life that have been completely unexpected, both amazing and also challenging. The problem is that usually when something unexpected happens and we consider it to be awesome – we call that a surprise, but when something unexpectedly ‘negative’ happens, we usually label that as bad. And when things don’t go the way we thought or how we’d hoped, we want to control it to match the outcome we had imagined in our minds.

Same with people. We sometimes expect people to be a certain way, behave a certain way or do things in the way that WE would do them. Not how they would do it. So, in this ep, I delve into the awesome Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins.

This is a life changing approach that when applied to life, you’ll notice stress, tension and emotional entanglement disappear!
