HAPPY NEW YEAR!
After a series of technical issues, I decided that regardless of if an episode has the perfect editing or catchy song, there's information and there are stories that need to be shared and talked about. So coming through with the iPhone mic, we are back and as grass roots as ever, and I'm cool with that.
In this episode I share a tough encounter with an instructor, and how they unfortunately received and reacted to feedback about a class. With this I share thoughts that have proceeded encounters like this and ask questions to the listener and invite reflection on how we react to tough news and sometimes painful feedback.
My hope is always to encourage communication skills, self reflection and extend an invitation to try to remember humanity when we speak to a boss, or upset class member etc.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
This episode is coming in at the perfect time to bust fitness myths that most of us hear about or begin to try as we kick off our fitness resolutions with Certified Health & Nutrition coach, Lydia Engemann.
we tackle myths surrounding excess exercise and the most demonized thing of all, "CARBS".
This is an amazing episode for anyone who has questions when it comes to probably the most talked about nutrition and cardio trends. I fully encourage fitness instructors and maybe even students to listen and digest this info.
We reference the health company, MoreEnergy

Inspired but the amazing "Awesome with Alison" podcast, I felt a strong pull to share moments in my career that formed me as an instructor and human, when I felt like a loser, or failure.
Dedicating this episode to my wonderful friends who have held me, pushed me, supported me and walked this journey with me. I wouldn't be here without you.

I will be honest, I'm STILL fangirling over the fact I got to speak with the one and only, the legend and my fitness hero, Dan Cohen.
Dan Cohen is a Les Mills Program Director on the Creative Team, Speaker and communication coach (which explains how incredible his cues when he teaches, as well as the incredible language he uses teaching us in this episode).
He has a masters in IBC, NLP, TLT, and a he is Hypnosis Coach, and his favorite titles - A father and husband!
In this episode we dive into the layers of linguistics in strong cueing, finding our instructor strengths and strengthening weaknesses. We talk about different stages in our instructor journey and how to continue creating passion and skill through practice, trial and error and continued improvement.
This was a dream interview. I never thought in a million years I would have the honor of talking directly to Dan. I hope that you all get to learn as much as I did, and take away the incredible lessons he shares.

This episode is amazing. Ange is truly such a passionate member of the fitness community and inspires so many with every single class.
I had the privilege of having this conversation with Ange and tapping into her experience on how she personally elevates an indoor cycling class to not just be a great workout, but a completely inspiring experience for all participants.
Whether you teach cycling or any other format, the language and wording of the cues she shares are absolutely the kind you will want to listen to and be inspired by.

This episode has taken weeks of prep on my end to make sure that I could fully share skills I have developed personally to develop a strong, safe work environment at work.
Again we come back to the face that "I create the culture in my work place". In this episode I share what I personally have overcome to feel ready and comfortable in a leadership position, ways I strive to continue to learn and grow and develop outside of work as well as important values we have as a staff that can be implemented in ALL leadership roles.
I also reference several books and resources I love to learn and study from:
