    Ep 74 I'm Back! A Practical, Manageable & Consistent Approach to Fitness

    Well...I am so excited to be back in front of the microphone after nearly 2 years. Its been an interesting last couple years as I focused primarily on training clients one on one in a gym setting. After gaining experience training hundreds of people of all different ages, back grounds and lifestyles I've been able to dial in what fuels me as a coach and start my own fitness business. 

    In this episode I chat around my mission statement to help others with a practical, manageable and consistent approach to health.
