Listen to my mistakes so you don't have to make them yourself. I've always been active. For the most part. But it wasn't always healthy and it wasn't always productive. This week's episode details my journey through fitness, from an athlete in organized sports, to an obsession with aesthetics and numbers, to someone who began to value movement for the right reasons. There was a pivotal moment in my life where I quit valuing movement for how it made me feel and rather relied on it for how it made me look. This led me down a dark path that took me years to leave behind. Hear how I became someone who prioritized health and enjoying life over calories and aesthetics. What does movement mean for you? Thanks for listening!

Hey guys! This week Chelsea and Lana Linge of Lifestyle with The Linges join me to talk about their new program, "Going Beyond Weight Loss." We also dive into our personal journeys with fitness and health. This conversation is real, authentic, and informative. A little bit more on Chelsea & Lana's background and philosophy below: **We’re Chelsea and Lana Linge, two sisters in the Pacific Northwest with over a combined decade of experience in fitness.We're certified nutrition coaches and personal trainers, and our mission is to teach women the scientific way to meet their goals.The funny thing about nutrition is that no one teaches us how to eat.We're annoyed that all we were taught as kids was the food pyramid, and however our family ate.(Whether or not our family ate in a healthy way!)As we grow up, we are fed so much misinformation by the media that it’s no wonder that we’re confused.Walk into any grocery store and you’ll find a magazine at the checkout counter with claims like, lose 30 pounds in 30 days!One year we’re told that carbs are bad, the next year, it’s fats that we should be avoiding.The common theme across all fad diets is that women need to starve ourselves, cutting out all of the foods we love.We built our course, Going Beyond Weight Loss, to teach women how to fuel their bodies to feel energized throughout their day.We'll empower you to hit your goals, all while having the flexibility to still enjoy the food that brings you joy.You can find us at www.lifestylewiththelinges.com and on LinkedIn (Chelsea Linge), Instagram (@lifestylewiththelinges), and TikTok (@lanalifts). **Thanks for listening!
