We're Crazy Creative

Meghan and Jennifer had a chance to sit down with Adelade LaFontaine of AGM Health Fitness for a chat about gym culture and overcoming the obstacles to getting started on a fitness journey, and much more.

Adelade is an inspiring and talented Certified Personal Trainer and Behavior Change Specialist who specializes in helping women overcome gym anxiety and start their strength training journey using a holistic, beginner-friendly approach. She meets you where you are, without intense, overwhelming programs, and she is a joy not only to talk to but to train with and learn from.

For over a decade, I struggled with yo-yo dieting and exercising. I only saw exercise as something you did to lose weight, which made it very frustrating and impossible to stick to. Now, as a woman over 35, I've realized the latest diet trend and intense workout plans are not the way to build gym confidence and consistency needed to reach your goals and actually make lasting change. 

The editing of this episode is a bit wonky because we were recording during a snowstorm so the internet was a bit unstable but its still a great episode and we hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed recording it!

"I love exploring the vibrant food culture around me. As a kid, two of the most influential and inspiring figures in my life were my amazing grandmothers who taught me the wonders of cooking. Since then, I've been on an everlasting journey to learn more about regional delicacies, fresh ingredients from local farmers' markets, and traditional recipes. Exploring different techniques and cultural cuisines has not only made me a better chef but also a more creative one too.

​

My professional experience includes working at restaurants, menu consulting, recipe development and cooking instructor for the last six years. I'm now living my dream of cooking great food whilst connecting with wonderful people like yourself in beautiful Palermo, Sicily!"
