I Want to Thank ME: Celebrating 1 Million Downloads + A Fun Q&A
 

I honestly can’t believe I’m saying this…but today’s episode is #200. And as of this week, we’ve officially hit 1 MILLION DOWNLOADS for Unf*ck Your Fitness.

I’m not usually at a loss for words, but I’m feeling that way right now!

To celebrate this huge milestone, I wanted to do a fun Q&A episode, based on your questions from Instagram! I’m answering everything from what motivates me now, to how I track on vacation, my favorite self-tanner, podcasts, and more.

I’ve been reflecting a LOT on what this journey has meant to me. I’ve stayed consistent, I’ve adjusted when I needed to, and I’ve done my best to ALWAYS show up authentically. 

This podcast has helped me build confidence in myself in ways I NEVER expected, and reminded me (just like I remind you all the time) that you CAN do things that scare the shit out of you!

I belong in this space, and I have value to share. So yeah…I want to thank ME (cue Snoop Dogg)! 

Whether this is your first time tuning in or you’ve been around since day one - THANK YOU. You’re a HUGE part of why I started this, and I’m so glad you’re here!!
