This episode is an extract from one of my earlier guest interviews with certified fitness and wellness coach, Francisca Akudo (IG: @franfitlane).
In 2019, Francisca posted a moving personal statement that shone a light on the shackle of her 'shyness' and how she was boldly stepping away from it's hold over her:
"Today I'm crushing on MYSELF. The growth in self-confidence, being comfortable with whom I am. The boldness of doing what I wouldn't have imagined myself doing a few years ago. The very shy Fran that would have loved to be invisible while moving around is standing on that stage. I'm so happy for my experience and super proud of myself for having that courage to be there. Fitness has made me discover another side of me. Two years ago, I started contemplating on joining this kind of competition (female bodybuilding). Motivated by 1) to show off my hard work; and 2) to do what I admired other people doing. But I would always say, I CAN'T DO IT!! Shyness wouldn't let me. Today, I broke that SHACKLE OF SHYNESS".
