About My Fitness Journey:
My Fitness Journey is Podcast/Platform developed to educate and redefine what it means to be fit.
Social Media has created an unhealthy environment and often set unrealistic expectations on what it means to be fit. The goal is to educate people on the idea that one person’s PERSONAL journey is different from yours, and there are several factors that play into their success: mindset, experience, diet, genetics, anatomy etc.
Embrace your journey and don’t be so quick to want to be like others, without understanding why and how. It leads to disappointments, self-doubts and injuries.
The hope is that My Fitness Journey will not just provide a story-telling platform, it will once again educate and break down misconceptions.

Our Goals:
1.) The goal of getting people to rethink what it means to be fit.
2.) To provide a platform that humanizes people. Because social
media hasn’t done a great job at doing so.
3.) To help our audience understand that this journey is a grind,
it’s consistency. It’s not a quick fix system, it’s a journey, a
lifestyle.
4.) There’s a lot of false information out there, our goal is to get
people to understand that this journey requires
personalization.
