Episode 1: Kyla Templeton, Community
In this episode we have a deep conversation about community and how Kyla Templeton and I share a lot of the same qualities. Building community, the propensity to be very excited about starting ALL the things but, finishing them is another story entirely. Surrounding yourself with people that are a good fit and compliment your challenges is so important. We touch on how moving our bodies is a great way to help work our brains. “You have to move your body to fix your head." “If your body is good, it is going to help your mind be good. If your mind is good, it’s going to help your body be healthy. You can’t fix your head with your head. We can work out a lot of emotions through activity.” Music courtesy of Uncle Scott Show links: https://bikeschoolbentonville.com/ https://www.blakest.com/ https://www.grownupswimming.com/ https://www.thejoysofswimming.com/
