Why was this episode so important to me? A few things really... I really enjoy shenanigans. I love making light of things when things are supposed to be serious. I feel like there’s too many things in this world to be serious about and when it comes to physical health through training and good company I love laughing! Laughing brings out those feel-good endorphins along with the same endorphins that come out when you’re training. When you’re feeling good when you’re doing something hard like training it is much more enticing to go back to do it again. Like anything that we do to get that good feeling again and again. But in this way this is a very healthy way of going about it. It’s all very natural instead of using substances to get that feel good feeling which we all know is a slippery slope. When we’re training and we are not enjoying ourselves because of culture, people, or anything else that can hinder that feel good feeling really makes it so that you don’t want to do it again. We all are going to have times where we don’t feel like doing something but if we can just set that aside and do what we know is good for us and act on that we usually come out afterward feeling grateful that we went through with it. I feel being active and laughing is the perfect combination to living a healthy mental and physical life. The other point I want to get across is the opposite end of the spectrum is when we’re not feeling so good. In these times it’s important for us to feel what it is were feeling, sit with it and find a way to move on. And that is what a lot of people use the gym for! For me and many others the gym is used to release tension and stress and leaving at the door whatever happened in that day. Once you step inside that gym either if it’s by yourself or amongst your peers it is basically a new beginnings and a start to feeling better really... This segment resonates with me about not giving a shit what anybody thinks or feels about you. There is huge importance in this because when we care too much it fills our brains with things that don’t actually matter. For instance if you did not think about these things that don’t matter then you can fill that space with things that actually do. It’s really that simple! But how do we get to this place? In my experience I learned to practice all types of meditation, breathing especially, reading books that correlate with these things or podcasts. Like this one! lol Also most importantly I’m putting a disclaimer on this particular episode! We all know that I am not afraid of swearing but there is a little more swearing in this one and most likely some offensive verbiage. If you do not find a female trucker mouth entertaining or have put power behind words that everybody is finding offence these days, this episode will not be for you! Aside from all of that I am particularly stoked to introduce my good friends Tara and Jen! These two boss babes are practically attached at the hip and are sisters from a different mister. I absolutely love their energy and how they feed off each other. They are wives (besties) in and outside of the gym and always have each other’s back. You will not see judgement between these two and nothing but encouragement even though sometimes you feel like they are fighting, but I assure you they are not! If anything they use higher octave voices and motivating verbiage just to encourage each other to raise the bar for themselves. And in that I find most admirable because they still leave arm in arm with nothing but love. I want to thank these two beautiful beasts for joining me on this podcast unapologetically. I also want to thank my audience and anyone listening because getting the feedback that I’m getting and the sharing that you’re sharing, lights a fire under my ass! I hold great gratitude towards you all ❤️ Intro song: ‘Don’t Fucking Tell Me What To Do’ by Robyn Guests: @taracard261 & @jenniferkovacs
