    Trying to Be That Girl… and Failing

    This episode is little more personal than the others... Six months ago, I shared my journey in a video about why I'd been silent for four years. Back in 2021, I was thriving with my personal trainer business and working as a kinesiologist, building a significant influencer income through online programs and merchandise. This video revisits that period, reflecting on my career growth and the career change that led to a sabbatical from social media. And what about present day ? My fitness motivation is still a mess, my workout consistency is non-existent, and I'm turning 30 in August with a body I'm not happy with. This is your sign that you're not alone in your female fitness journey because even your kinesiologist is struggling.In this episode I'm giving you the unfiltered 6-month update nobody asked for but everyone needs to hear. We're talking fitness burnout, working a full-time job you don't care about, biting off more than you can chew, and what actually happens when you try to be that girl and fall flat on your face. If you've ever felt like you can't keep up with your own fitness goals... this one's for you 3
