Alanna is joined by fitness legend, Jules for a super fun episode about her wild ride from SoulCycle instructor to boss and founder of Core Studio! They swap stories about everything—from surprise engagements to health curveballs (lol), and what it’s really like to break out of the structured fitness world and invent your own kind of workout magic.
They get into how music can totally make or break a fitness class, and how having a ride-or-die crew of family and friends makes chasing your dreams a little less scary (and a lot more doable). There's also talk about burnout, bouncing back, and building a business that actually lights you up.
Plus, if you're into proposal surprises and non-traditional wedding planning vibes, you're gonna love Jules' take on keeping it real and doing things your way. It's a heartwarming, hilarious, and inspiring chat about creativity, hustle, and not being afraid to rewrite the rules.
