As we head into the summer, it was timely to chat with our guest Pax Frias. Pax is a Fitness Coach & Partner at the movement studio, Restore Human. He’s also an outdoor enthusiast and encourages spending time outside in the sun. We cover a lot of ground in this episode, exploring transitions in well-being, movement, & performance. Topics include: parenting, body awareness, rest & nutrition, goal setting, fitness trackers, reducing jet lag, and much more! Whether you are highly active or struggling to find balance in a busy schedule, there's a takeaway here for everyone.

Follow Pax on Instagram at @humanpax and learn about Restore Human on their website (in person & virtual sessions available)
