Wayfinding Wellness

This week's episode is a special birthday episode where I list 25 things I've learned in 25 years. I turned 25 years old this week and reflected on some of the lessons I've learned and the things that have proved important to remember as I go through my journey.

In this episode, I'm joined by my friend Savanna Flynn. Our paths crossed last fall competing in the same bodybuilding competitions, and it was clear that we shared a passion for the sport and for building strength inside and out. In our conversation, we talk about the process of bodybuilding and being on prep, our post-show experiences, body image, embracing nutrition for building muscle, how personal development ties into fitness, reframing challenges as opportunities for growth, and so much more.

In this episode, I talk about how strength training changed my life. I talk about my background with competitive dance and other sports, falling in love with movement, challenging transitions from dance to other sports to college, how strength training has added to my life, and why building muscle and strength are so essential for longevity and overall health.

In this episode I’m joined by Katya Rucker, host of the I’d Rather Be Podcast. In our conversation we talk about hobbies. We discuss how having hobbies is connected to our sense of wellbeing, the ways in which hobbies add a sense of contentment and fulfillment to our everyday lives, how to get past the discomfort of being bad at something when we first start out, how to make the time to invest in hobbies and why it's important that we do, and how to prioritize the activities we enjoy in a world that values achievement and productivity over everything else.
