They say knowledge equals power but after awhile that's simply not true. Applied knowledge is where the power lies and so many women I talk to are not taking the action they need to and are hiding behind the excuse they need more information. Trust me I was there too once. I want to explain why this has been an exhausting experience for me to witness, men vs women when it comes to applying for jobs and their requirements, what "productive" procrastination looks like, and more!

I got a few messages after a story post I did in my gym asking how expensive it was to build everything out. It was much cheaper than you'd probably expect so in today's episode, I want to break it all down and where I got everything. If you want to buy new equipment and go balls to the wall, go for it. You absolutely don't have to though and you can save thousands of dollars in the process.

Today's topic has been prevalent in the news along with in the fitness community recently and I wanted to share my thoughts about it this week. I've been a first hand witness to what domestic abuse looks like growing up with my dad and finally getting the fuck out of there along with my mom and sister in high school. We ended up being the bad guys because of the fabricated reputation he built for himself. I'll share all this along with how to spot common signs of victim blaming, trauma responses, and why we need to listen to victims.

I've made some great decisions financially and made some decisions that backfired and would be considered a failure. What I've learned is the absolute worst decision you can make… is none at all.

Many people avoid making decisions based on fear of failure where ironically that's the only way you can fail. If a financial decision doesn't go your way, you learn much like with any other decision. Money makes it weird for people though because it can be so tied to their ego.

In this episode, I'm going to explain the 3 ways indecision costs you dearly, how decisions lead to momentum, how to automate your money strategy, and more!

If you own your own business or have aspirations to in the near future, I want to level with you when it comes to the reality of what it's really like. It's not what the influencers on social media would have you believe.

It's brutal.

It's also the best decision I ever made for myself. I want to share the good, bad, and ugly when it comes to running your own business and what you should really expect.
