    Episode 10: Fit 4 Us!

    Wassup Activators! Can you believe we're already at episode 10?! When I created this podcast, it was to be a safe space where others can find tips and resources to support them on their wellness journeys and connect with others who are doing the same or supporting others in doing so. This episode was no different. On "Fit 4 Us", I sat down with Deja Duncan, an engineer and CPT of @Engineered4fit_ and Takera "TK" Boston (@takera.b), a personal motivator, step aerobic instructor, fitness enthusiast, writer, content creator, public speaker, group fitness instructor, communications specialist, event curator and most, importantly, a mom.  Deja and TK shared how they entered the wellness industry, challenges they've experienced as a Black woman navigating the health and fitness space, and how they have used their businesses to create a community where others can work on their wellness goals. This conversation was so needed and so heart-warming. I am glad I got to share my space with these women and what I learned from them. If you are looking for a supportive community to support you on your wellness journey or need some encouragement to move forward, you don't want to miss this episode. Tune in and catch these gems and follow them on IG and sign-up for one of their classes. Stay activated, Mic
