About this episode

Christina and Karley discuss the transformative journey of fitness beyond weight loss, focusing on personal growth and self-acceptance.

This episode is a full-circle look at what happens when fitness stops being JUST about weight loss, and becomes the catalyst for deeper personal growth. Christina is joined by her longtime friend and client Karley to reflect on how much they have both changed since meeting in 2018.
