Strong with Julie

Bret and Dan on the pod this week!!!!!! A great episode with questions for in and outside of the gym, just their opinions. I learned a lot and I hope you did too <3 They share their opinions on how to ask a girl out in the gym, red flags in a girl, green flags, ideal first dates, should it be 50/50 in terms of paying for dates/things, what if your SO did only fans, love at first sight.... and MORE! 

Today I had an amazing conversation with Nashali Alma, a survivor who has shown women that you CAN survive an attack if you fight back and never give up 💖 After watching this video a few weeks ago I reached out to Nashali because I wanted to hear her full life story and help raise awareness for the Never Give Up Campaign - “My idea is to enact legislation that would make for harsher punishments on sexual assault because as it stands, people are not fearful of committing sexual assault the same way they fear a murder charge. The gofundme is to fund all these necessities and to allow me to take the time off of work to focus all my energy on raising awareness on sexual assault. Once this takes off I will be able to begin my goals and start my journey to open an all women’s gym and offer free self-defense classes.” https://www.gofundme.com/f/zpna8-womens-empowerment-movement?utm_campaign=p_lico+share-sheet&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_source=customer Women should feel safe in a public space like a gym. You are so brave and inspiring for enduring the pain and being a voice for all the women out there who have experienced similar situations!!! You are creating something so beautiful. As women we need to stick together and be there for each other, I hope you all enjoy this podcast, Nashali’s story, and support her in creating a safe place for all women to learn to stick up for themselves, build confidence and become bad asses!!! Her IG: @nashalialmaaa - also an online coach!

In this episode I sat down with ACSM EP-C, 500 hr CYT and birth doula Mo Maciekewski!!! We talked all things yoga, mediation, traveling, social media, starting your own business, life advice, affirmations… and MORE! Hi! I’m Mo! I am an exercise physiologist and feel extremely passionate about hacking in to the mental and emotional benefits of fitness. While my formal education is as a certified exercise physiologist, certified yoga instructor, and birth doula - what I consider my greatest teacher is my own experience with anxiety, honing into my own mind-body connection, and surrendering to what the universe has yet to unfold. I am lucky enough to have traveled the world teaching yoga in seven different countries and living in five of them over the past few years. It was during this journey that I totally revamped my teaching style to go from ’traditional fitness verbiage’ to ONLY cueing about the mental and energetic benefits of movement. Today I live in San Diego where I work privately with individuals on their own spiritual journey, expecting parents, and other fitness coaches that are ready to grow their passion for their own inspiring niche into a marketable, profitable service that they can offer their community. If you’re reading this, let it be a beautiful reminder that there are tools out there that you can master to unlock your energy from within and make you feel like you are exactly where you are meant to be, and more like your favorite version of yourself. Keep making every second count. X, Mo
