    Episode 4 - This is a special place and Christina Payson is about to show you just how special it is

    This week, I sat down with Christina Payson, long time member with who I had some incredibly powerful discussions throughout this episode. Christina is not the type of person who chooses the easy route, she goes full force into discomfort, especially when it comes to her cardio equipment of choice. We promise you’ll want to stick around for this episode as you’re sure to learn a great deal about yourself through Christina’s personal experiences, you will see and hear yourself in the obstacles she’s faced, in the inner turmoil she speaks that many of us also face on a day to day basis. We talk about the impact of years of diet culture, the shift in lifestyle and how this impacted her life in more ways than you can imagine. Get your tissues ready, you’re sure to be inspired and moved by this fourth episode of Proud to be Blended.

    Episode 3 - Having your person in your corner, the power of consistency and the impact of fitness on a family with Danny Brownrigg

    In the latest Proud to be Blended episode, I sit down with Danny Brownrigg, family man and General Manager at Audi Halifax. We take some time to discuss the impact fitness can have on a family and how valuable it is to have your person in your corner as you pursue your goals on your path to excellence. Danny touches on the lessons learned over his five years at Blended Athletics, particularly the power of consistency. There is a sense of pride when Danny speaks of his athletic accomplishments from over the years and how his physical abilities allow him to give all that he can to his children and family, day in day out. Of course, as with all Proud to be Blended episodes, Danny shares many nuggets of wisdom including some tips for first-time comers to Blended or those who are contemplating making the move!
