This month we're re-broadcasting our most popular podcasts.This week we are featuring our MOST downloaded podcast - our interview with @this.phoenix,rising.  Get ready to be inspired!In  February 2020, Trish (@this.phoenix.rising) got the wake-up call when she found herself in the emergency room, unable to breathe for unknown reasons (likely Covid, but doctors did not believe it was in the United States at this point).  She was also shocked to learn that she was carrying more than 200 pounds on her petite frame.  Doctors informed her that if she made it home, she was a high stroke risk and would need to start regularly monitoring her blood pressure.  Right then and there she vowed that if she survived this ordeal, she would get her health in order.  She kept her promise.  And like a phoenix rising from the ashes, she completely transformed herself - body, mind, and spirit - by getting her nutrition, exercise, and mindset in order.  Thanks for listening, we hope you enjoyed it.Book a FREE strategy call here.
