Fitness Career Mastery Podcast: Group Fitness | Personal Training | Studio & Gym Business
Episode Description & Show Notes: This week, a fitness influencer went viral for saying people over 200 pounds shouldn't be allowed in Pilates class—and that instructors with a “gut” shouldn't be teaching. Yes, she deleted the video. But the damage was done. Thousands of people agreed with her. This is the fitness industry we're still up against. And in this episode, we're not just pushing back—we're burning the whole narrative down. We break down 13 research-backed reasons why building your fitness brand around body transformation isn't just unethical—it's lazy, outdated, and costing you money. What we cover: Why transformation-based branding leads to low retention and high churn How extrinsic motivation backfires (and what the neuroscience says) The impact of shame-based messaging on mental health How to actually build emotional loyalty that fuels long-term growth Why purpose-driven brands scale better—and feel better This episode is part reckoning, part guidebook. We brought the science, the lived experience, and the tools to help you build a brand that doesn't just sell workouts—but moves people. Whether you've already left the old model behind or are still working your way out of it—this one's for you. If this message resonates, share it. Post it. Text it to your team. Forward it to another studio owner. This is how we shift the industry—together.

If you were a WWE fan in the 2000s, a mere mention of the name Dave Bautista is likely to get you feeling all nostalgic. During his wrestling career, Bautista became well known for his muscular build. And even after quitting the WWE, he stayed in the spotlight, going into acting and being recognised as the “best wrestler-turned-actor” out there, according to the likes of ScreenRant, AVclub.com and a prominent Reddit thread with over 1800 comments. After he put a lot of weight on for a role in Knock at the Cabin in 2023, fans were shocked to see him looking super slim at the premiere of The Last Showgirl at the Toronto International Film Festival in September 2024. Do actors often go to such extremes to lose weight for roles? Do actors sometimes go in the opposite direction and gain weight for a role? What about female actors?

I recently had the pleasure of interviewing Barbara Holifield—a seasoned Jungian analyst, psychotherapist, and somatic psychology expert—on my podcast On the Brink with Andi Simon. Barbara's insights, drawn from decades of experience and personal transformation, left a deep impression on me, and I'm excited to share our conversation with you. In our discussion, Barbara introduced me (and hopefully you) to the powerful idea that our body is not just a collection of parts but a unified whole, and that true transformation begins when we tune into our physical sensations as much as our thoughts. What is a "Whole Body Transformation?" In her new book, Being with the Body in Depth Psychology, Barbara explores the profound importance of accessing the inwardly felt body in depth psychotherapeutic process to enhance the experience of affective life. She draws her insights from philosophical perspectives, neuroscientific and infant research, developmental theory, and trauma studies. What she discovers is a comprehensive overview of embodiment. From her experience, Barbara offers clinical vignettes to demonstrate the critical value of working with bodily felt implicit relational memory. This approach is particularly important with those who have suffered developmental trauma. A Journey of Personal Transformation During our conversation, Barbara shared how her own experiences with trauma and adversity led her to a path of self-discovery and healing. What struck me was her belief that by “dropping the story”—that is, stepping away from the often-limiting narratives we create about our experiences—and instead fully experiencing our bodily sensations, we can connect with a more authentic and grounded version of ourselves. Barbara explained how modern life tends to push us to compartmentalize our experiences, but she reminded me that our mind, heart, and gut are deeply interconnected. Our earliest, instinctual responses, rooted in our sensory and emotional experiences, are just as important as our cognitive interpretations. Key Take-Aways from Our Interview The Body as an Integrated Whole: Barbara challenged the idea that our bodies are just a collection of parts—like a car with separate components. Instead, she stressed that our physical, emotional, and cognitive experiences are all interconnected. This holistic perspective not only helps us understand trauma and adversity but also empowers us to transform those experiences by engaging with our whole selves. Transformation Through Mindful Presence: A central theme of our conversation was the transformative power of mindfulness. Barbara emphasized the importance of pausing to feel and acknowledge our physical sensations, especially during challenging moments. By doing so, we can break free from the limiting stories we tell ourselves and access a more balanced, authentic response to life's ups and downs. Enhanced Communication and Relationship Building: Relationships often falter when we let our personal narratives—filled with assumptions and unspoken grievances—take over. Barbara shared how simply expressing our true feelings; by communicating the physical sensations and emotions we experience in the moment, can lead to deeper empathy and understanding. This approach not only fosters healing in ourselves but also strengthens our bonds with others. You might enjoy this video of our interview on Youtube. Practical Steps I'm Taking to Better Understand My Body and My Mind Inspired by Barbara's wisdom, I've started incorporating a few practices into my daily routine, and I'd love for you to try them as well: Mindful Sensation Check-Ins: I now make it a point to pause throughout the day and check in with my body. I notice my breath, the tension in my shoulders, or the steadiness of my feet. This small act of awareness helps me stay connected to my body, especially during stressful times. Journaling My Sensory Experiences: After particularly emotional moments, I take a few minutes to jot down the physical sensations I felt. This practice has helped me differentiate between the story my mind creates and the raw, embodied experience of my emotions, providing clearer insights into my responses. Engaging in Embodied Movement: Whether it's through yoga, authentic movement, or a mindful walk, I've found that engaging in activities that connect me with my body has been transformative. Appreciating simple moments—like a sunrise or a heartfelt connection with a friend—reminds me to experience life fully and authentically.

Does this time of year leave you feeling like you need to “have it all together”? If you've been putting pressure on yourself to tie everything up with a perfect little bow before January 1st, let me stop you right there. In today's episode, I'm sharing seven heartfelt reminders I needed to hear as we wrap up the year—and I have a feeling you might need to hear them, too. This year has been one of the most transformative of my life. Becoming a mom in July changed so much about my body, my priorities, and how I show up for myself. It's been messy, beautiful, and full of lessons I didn't see coming. These reminders are for anyone who feels overwhelmed by end-of-year expectations or just needs a little grace to move forward.

Does Calorie Restriction Even Work? What About the Carnivore Diet AND Fruit? Today we are excited to have Paul Saladino join us for a masterclass on food and diets. Dr. Saladino dives into the evolution of keto and carnivore diets, cutting through trends to focus on lasting health impacts. Dr. Saladino, widely recognized as CarnivoreMD, shares how his own diet shifted to include fruit and honey alongside animal-based nutrition, and why metabolic flexibility—not rigid rules—leads to better outcomes. Together, he and Dave challenge assumptions about long-term ketosis, examine its potential downsides, and explore how to optimize diets for energy, gut health, and longevity. They also tackle controversial topics like the risks of seed oils, the overhyped reputation of “health foods” like quinoa, and the critical roles insulin and nutrient density play in overall wellness. With insights on balancing mTOR, managing omega fats, and incorporating organ meats, this episode offers a nuanced perspective for anyone interested in biohacking, nutrition science, or simply eating smarter. What you'll learn: • Why metabolic flexibility matters more than strict diet rules • The science behind long-term ketosis and insulin's broader role in health • How common “health foods” could be doing more harm than good • The importance of nutrient-dense animal-based foods for gut and immune health • How to achieve optimal balance between fat types, mTOR, and longevity markers Resources: 2025 Biohacking Conference – https://biohackingconference.com/2025 Shop Paul Saladino's Products – https://heartandsoil.co Follow Paul Saladino on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/paulsaladinomd/ Paul Saladino's Book: The Carnivore Code – https://www.amazon.com/Carnivore-Code-Unlocking-Returning-Ancestral/dp/035846997X Lineage Provisions – 100% Grass-Fed Beef Tallow – https://lineageprovisions.com/products/100-grass-fed-beef-tallow Danger Coffee – https://dangercoffee.com Danger Coffee Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/dangercoffeeofficial/ Dave Asprey's Website – https://daveasprey.com Dave Asprey's Book: Smarter Not Harder – https://daveasprey.com/books Dave Asprey's Linktree – https://linktr.ee/daveasprey Upgrade Collective: Join The Human Upgrade Podcast Live – https://www.ourupgradecollective.com Own an Upgrade Labs – https://ownanupgradelabs.com Upgrade Labs – https://upgradelabs.com 40 Years of Zen – Neurofeedback Training for Advanced Cognitive Enhancement – https://40yearsofzen.com Sponsors: - Timeline | Head to https://www.timeline.com/dave to get 10% off your first order. - LMNT | Free LMNT Sample Pack with any drink mix purchase by going to https://drinklmnt.com/dave.
