| 6/1/26 |  WHITNEY WISER SAVAGE | Today we are speaking with the founder of the first all female competition the Nashville fit show and the natural titans as well as a posing and prep coach, speaker, author, wife, and mother. She is a bikini Olympian with an incredible story triumphing over abuse after an ex attempted to run her over with his car and being told she wouldn't be able to continue bodybuilding to persisting, becoming a pro, and beating the odds. She also hosts awesome retreats with her style, as well as workshops and events and has some really cool experiences she is offering to the industry that have never been done before. Here to talk about all of that and more I Welcome to the show Whitney wiser savage how are you doing?! Whitney's Personal Journey Whitney discussed surviving an abusive relationship and a devastating car accident that resulted in spinal injuries requiring emergency surgery and spinal fusion. Despite being told that returning to competition was unlikely, Whitney remained determined and eventually returned to the stage, earning an IFBB Pro card at the 2014 USA Championships and later qualifying for the Olympia. Whitney emphasized that setbacks and repeated near-misses ultimately provided valuable lessons that now help inform coaching and mentoring. Building the Nashville Fit Show Whitney explained how the idea for the first all-women's bodybuilding competition came from a vision to create a more comfortable and welcoming environment for female athletes. Support from the fitness community helped bring the concept to life, while event promotion also required navigating financial and operational challenges. Whitney highlighted the strong sense of community built through NPC Tennessee over many years of promoting events. The Fit Show Story Project Whitney shared details about the Fit Show Story Project, launched in 2020 to empower women through storytelling. Participants submit stories about overcoming adversity, finalists create video submissions, and a winner is selected based on impact and personal connection. The initiative continues to grow, with selected stories featured on the Nashville Fit Show website and plans for a special guest presenter at this year's award ceremony. Upcoming Events Fit Show Forum Workshop — June 27, 2026 The educational workshop is designed to help competitors prepare for the stage and will cover: Hair and makeup preparation Tanning guidance Judging criteria education Hands-on judging practice using scorecards Confidence-building support Mental health and post-show transition discussions Celeste is scheduled to speak on mental health, and additional experts, including a hypnotherapist, will contribute educational sessions. Nashville Fit Show Post-Show Brunch — August 16, 2026 A new post-show brunch will take place the day after the Nashville Fit Show and will focus on education and community. Topics include: Understanding judges' feedback Mental health discussions Nutrition guidance Networking opportunities Registration is expected to open June 1, 2026, with limited attendance available. Coaching, Posing, and Judging Insights Whitney discussed how posing standards and techniques have evolved over time, especially with the introduction of the Fit Model division. While more information is available than ever before, Whitney noted that not all guidance is accurate, making quality coaching and a solid understanding of official judging criteria increasingly important. Experience as a judge has also shaped the advice provided to athletes regarding posing and stage presentation. Motherhood and Work-Life Balance Whitney reflected on balancing entrepreneurship, fitness, and motherhood. Early years of parenting brought challenges that required adjusting fitness goals and expectations. Whitney emphasized the importance of self-compassion during those periods. Today, responsibilities are managed through long-term planning, prioritization, and maintaining focus on both family and business growth. Key Takeaways Resilience through adversity Learning from setbacks rather than fearing them Building supportive communities for women in fitness Using personal stories to inspire others Viewing every competition as a learning experience Prioritizing education, preparation, and long-term growth over short-term outcomes The overall message was that success comes from persistence, faith, continuous learning, and the willingness to keep moving forward despite obstacles.

| 5/30/26 |  JESSICA GONZALEZ | JESSICA GONZALEZ; All Hope No Expectations, Turning Pro and Graduating, Consider This Before Competing Background & Competitive Success Jessica Gonzalez And Celeste discussed IFBB BIKINI PRO Jessica's rapid rise in bikini bodybuilding and the experience of becoming successful quickly in the sport. Within the first year of competing, Jessica earned a pro card, placed highly in multiple competitions, finished second at a pro debut, and competed at major shows including New York and Miami Pro. Jessica described the New York show as mentally challenging but ultimately valuable for growth and learning. Bodybuilding Journey Jessica explained that training had been consistent since age 15, but serious bodybuilding preparation began around 2020 after becoming more focused with guidance from Jessica's husband and coach. Jessica also shared that turning pro happened during the same weekend as graduating from nursing school. Mindset & Mental Resilience A major focus of the episode was mindset in a subjective sport. Jessica emphasized: Focusing on daily execution rather than outcomes Avoiding comparison on social media Accepting the subjective nature of judging Learning from setbacks instead of treating them as failures Maintaining confidence despite inconsistent feedback Balance Outside Bodybuilding Jessica repeatedly stressed the importance of maintaining balance outside the sport. Key themes included: Treating bodybuilding as a hobby rather than an entire identity Prioritizing relationships and personal life Avoiding financial instability for competition Taking proper off-seasons for long-term health Balancing prep alongside work as a nurse practitioner and business owner Jessica also discussed the financial realities of competing, including coaching costs, registration fees, travel, suits, and ongoing prep expenses. Career & Daily Routine Jessica currently works as a nurse practitioner providing weight loss injections, peptides, and IV therapy services. Jessica described a structured daily routine involving cardio, meal prep, client visits, and balancing business responsibilities with prep demands. Relationships & Coaching Dynamics The conversation included discussion about being coached by Jessica's husband while maintaining a healthy marriage. Topics included opposite schedules, prep stress, and balancing "coach mode" versus "partner mode." Pro vs Amateur Competition Experience Jessica noted that the professional bodybuilding environment felt more supportive and welcoming than the amateur scene. Jessica highlighted stronger camaraderie and mutual respect among professional competitors. Advice for Aspiring Competitors Jessica's advice centered around patience, authenticity, and long-term perspective. Main takeaways included: Competing for personal fulfillment Avoiding comparison to others Focusing on long-term progress Building a life outside bodybuilding Future Goals Discussed The episode also touched on future goals, including improving stage presence, focusing on glute development during the off-season, taking a longer recovery phase, and potentially returning for another conversation after the Olympia.

| 5/15/26 |  KYLA DICKERSON- Fit Model Pro | Celeste interviewed Kyla Dickerson, an IFBB fit model pro, coach, and posing specialist who has competed in 28 marathons and is redefining strength and confidence for women over 40 in bodybuilding. Kyla shared how her late mother instilled visualization techniques in her at a young age, including a specific example of learning to do a back dive, which became a foundation for her approach to achieving goals. The conversation touched on Kyla's pre-competition rituals and her mother's belief in visualization and manifestation, which Kyla described as key to her success across various endeavors including marathons and pageants. Personal Philosophy and Career Support Kyla shared her personal philosophy of staying true to herself regardless of her surroundings, inspired by her mother's advice to "live like it's your last day." She discussed how her husband supports her career as an athlete and IPV fitness model, with him encouraging her to focus on helping women over 40 feel better in their bodies and minds. Kyla expressed gratitude for her husband's support and mentioned her regret about not taking a photo with him after receiving her pro card at her first competition. Kyla's First Pro Show Victory Kyla shared her experience winning her first pro show, describing the challenging journey to Pittsburgh Nationals where she faced multiple obstacles including weather delays, flight changes, and her husband getting sick. Despite these difficulties, Kyla and a fellow competitor who was also traveling to the show managed to find accommodations and workout facilities. When Kyla won the pro card, she was genuinely surprised as she had been discouraged by her previous bikini competition experiences and had initially planned not to compete at all that year. Fit Model Competition Experience Kyla shared her experience competing in her first professional fit model show, where she placed 5th in the Masters division. She discussed the unique aspects of fit model competitions, including the unpredictability of placements and the opportunity to connect with other competitors. Kyla expressed her preference for competing in the Masters category and shared feedback about her performance, including suggestions for improvement. She also mentioned plans to discuss concerns about the treatment of the Masters division compared to Open division on a podcast. Masters vs Open Division Disparities Kyla expressed concerns about discrepancies in prize money and placement recognition between Masters and Open divisions at a competition. She noted that Masters competitors were not charged to compete but questioned why they received different treatment in terms of prize money and placement recognition compared to Open competitors. Kyla emphasized the need for equal treatment between divisions, particularly highlighting the challenges faced by older competitors in the Masters division. Physique Competition Division Strategies Kyla and Celeste discussed the challenges and strategies in competitive physique shows, particularly focusing on the differences between the Masters and Open divisions. They explored how placement in one division might affect competitors' performance in the other, with Celeste suggesting that going first in the Open division could be advantageous. Kyla emphasized the importance of not letting placement define an athlete's future in the sport and highlighted the success of pro show winners who embody the fit model look. The conversation also touched on the inspiring presence of older competitors and Kyla's mission to empower women over 40 through her achievements and story of discipline in the sport. Coaching for Women Over 40 Kyla discussed her coaching approach for women over 40, emphasizing that sustainable transformation is possible without extreme measures. She shared personal experiences with body dysmorphia and how running helped her cope with challenges in her first marriage and her mother's illness. Kyla explained that her motivation in bodybuilding comes from wanting her mother to have experienced the joy of fitness, as her mother was unable to participate due to health issues. Mother's Inspiration in Fitness Career Kyla shared how her late mother Darla inspired her fitness career, particularly after her mother's passing when Kyla became a group fitness instructor. She described how her mother's resilience during her final illness, including continuing to find joy despite severe pain and broken bones, motivated Kyla to push through her own challenges during marathon training. Kyla emphasized the importance of cherishing time with loved ones and not taking moments together for granted. Loss and Memory Preservation Discussion Celeste and Kyla discussed their experiences with loss and how they carry their loved ones' memories forward. Kyla shared how she connects with her mother and brother through meaningful symbols and experiences, including the significance of the number 444. They also discussed Kyla's role as a group fitness manager at a Lifetime gym in La Jolla, where she has developed strong connections with her long-standing class participants. The conversation ended with Celeste preparing to ask Kyla about challenges faced by women over 40, though this portion of the discussion was not included in the transcript segment provided. Women's Fitness Coaching Challenges Kyla discussed the challenges of coaching women on fitness journeys, particularly around redefining goals beyond just weight loss and addressing misconceptions about nutrition, especially for women over 40 who may have experienced the low-carb era. She emphasized the importance of accountability and long-term commitment in fitness coaching, noting that many clients need guidance to focus on sustainable practices rather than quick fixes. Kyla highlighted that while supplements and modern tools exist, they cannot replace the fundamentals of proper eating and training, and she stays focused on helping clients build consistent habits and maintain patience through the challenging process. Miss Utah's Fear Factor Experience Celeste interviewed Kyla, who shared her experience as Miss Utah 2004 and participating in a Miss U.S.A. edition of Fear Factor. Kyla described her challenging experience on the show, including a difficult ocean platform challenge that led to her being the first contestant eliminated. She provided advice for aspiring competitors, emphasizing the importance of getting a coach immediately and not underestimating the preparation time required. Kyla also shared insights for pro competitors, stressing the need for confidence and strong posing on stage. The conversation concluded with Kyla sharing her contact information for those interested in working with her as a coach or trainer.
