#235 BEAUTIFUL STRENGTH | How Cara Wolder is challenging what women can do & sharing the ultimate fitness motivation

The Feel Good Nakd Podcast for Women

What’s the ultimate fitness motivation? The kind that makes us unstoppable. Art director and influencer, Cara Wolder shares her fitness journey from bodybuilding goals to feeling powerful. Cara is known in the fitness world for expanding calisthenics to women. At 4ft 9in, she performs exercises that are difficult for most men - without an athletic or gymnastics background!

Cara is incredibly inspirational with an intuitive approach to health and fitness that doesn’t focus on the way we look, but rather what our bodies can do. (In fact, you’ll never see transformation or flexing photos on her feed!)

Listen for motivation as Cara encourages us to look deeper at what’s possible for us as women.

In this motivational podcast episode:

  • Shifting from dieting to an intuitive health & fitness approach
  • Why we get fitness and media messaging that holds us back 
  • Challenging the narrative on women's fitness and abilities
