Podcast appearances and mentions of christine conti

In this episode of Beyond the Sets & Reps, Brandi welcomes Christine Conti, a multi-career entrepreneur and founder of Fit Fix Now and Contifit, to share her extraordinary journey from investment banking to teaching, and ultimately to running a successful international health and wellness brand. Christine opens up about the life-altering autoimmune diagnosis that forced her to reevaluate her priorities, overcome deep depression, and discover her true purpose. She explains how turning setbacks into superpowers led her to embrace a “choose something” philosophy and cultivate a global network of like-minded professionals—all by simply showing up and asking, “How can I help?” Listeners will hear practical strategies for effective networking, powerful advice on giving back, and the importance of telling a personal story that resonates. Christine underscores the role consistency plays in creating “overnight” success and reveals why stepping out of one's comfort zone—even just 1% at a time—can unlock opportunities we never imagined. This inspiring conversation offers a blueprint for anyone striving to turn adversity into a meaningful career, build authentic relationships, and leave a lasting impact on the world.   Profit Accelerator: April 14th - 18th https://beyondthesetsandreps.com/profit-accelerator   And when your ready, here's how I can help:   30 Ways to Make $500 In Your Fitness Business By Next Week: https://beyondthesetsandreps.com/30-ways   90 Days Of Social Media Content For The Fitness Professional:   https://beyondthesetsandreps.com/90-days   Join our Facebook Group Successful Online Fit-Pro's where you will find a tribe of fabulous fitness trainers, done-for-you weekly content ideas, ways to start making money TODAY, content rewrites and much more: https://www.facebook.com/groups/fitprohangout   MyClientConnections.com is all-in-one platform that will run your entire fitness based business  With unlimited everything like courses, websites, funnels, scheduling, emails, texting and automated workflows you can charge your clients and give them a password protected portal for your programs courses…so no more chasing venmo payments!  At only $97 a month it is the obvious choice for new coaches entering the space and seasoned coaches looking for an upgraded back office experience.  Jump on over and take a look at myclientconnections.com

First, it's like conducting a poll on where you want and need the most help in your business…without conducting a poll.  Second, it's a real eye opener to see whether hosting guesst or doing solo content where I'm sharing behind the scenes of building a business resonate most. This year, it's been the business how-to sessions that mattered most to you.  A few stand-outs though that made it into this list of 10 top podcast of 2023 list:  You like hearing about other midlife women who are having success & overcoming obstacles  Doing it alone can be lonely and you like hearing how to get out of your own head and way.

I've literally been waiting for this episode since June when Christine Conti won the prestigious IDEA 2023 Fitness Instructor of the Year in Los Angeles, CA. Yes, I had to wait to record this one so I could be LIVE at the Jersey Shore with my fellow Brick, NJ, fit-fam friend in her podcast studio (Two Fit Crazies & a Microphone). This episode could easily be called “2 Fire-breathing dragons (literally) and a microphone” and you will see WHY during the show.   Christine Conti has one heckuva story that epitomizes her “Yes You Can” mentality, attitude, and brand. After receiving a life-changing diagnosis at age 30, this former investment banker and English teacher first transformed her life…and now she transforms others. She's a chronic disease specialist, a best-selling author, a keynote speaker, and life-transformer. She truly is a woman of IMPACT and she's determined to show the world that ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE!    Here is specifically what I cover on this week's IMPACT SHOW: A walk-down memory lane from our cherished memories in Brick, NJ (both of our hometown's), including an interesting story when we first met and how that was part of Christine's journey to leave teaching. Hey, it's not my fault! ☺ We talk about Christine's journey, a truly inspiring and mind-blowing ascent, going from a career in investment banking to teaching, then finding her way to the Fit-Pro life! And now she's a  world-recognized chronic disease wellness specialist, author, speaker, podcaster, IRONMAN, and a guide for athletes with diseases and disabilities. Why does she believe in the mantra “Yes, you can” and lives by it every day.  We go through the moment in her life, her “Come to Jesus” moment, and how she, like all of us,  got through challenging periods where she questioned her sanity, thinking she's crazy, but how that led her to her true purpose. A reminder that only the “crazies” can change the world! We talked about her best-selling book, SPLIT-SECOND COURAGE. What does that mean? That is “your ability to make a choice at a split second and not think back, not regret it, not hesitate, not balk. You've had enough experiences, you know how to handle the repercussions of the decision you make. You have the coping mechanisms, you have the techniques in place so that whatever decision you make, you're going to handle it.” Christine's mental toughness is a force to reckon with - she's competed in Ironman races, a 100-mile race, and many other endurance and fitness events. Where that comes from?  Why she and her co-host Brian Prendergast have such a good time on their podcast, “Two Fit-Crazies & a Microphone. What's next for Christine Conti? I had a blast doing this in-person interview at the Jersey Shore. It was truly awesome to be “home” and inspiring to connect with Christine and share her story with you.

The Medfit Network has been promoting the idea that “fitness is medicine” for a long time. And now, the organization has launched MedFit Care to reduce the cost, a common barrier that too many people rely on to avoid taking care of themselves, and to involve doctors in prescribing medical fitness.MedFit and others have been working to marry healthcare and fitness, and now with MedFit Care, participants can use tax-free or tax-deductible dollars to pay for fitness services prescribed by a doctor.The idea is that A MedFit Care physician can write a medically necessary exercise prescription that can be used with your MedFit Care fitness professional, who understands your unique needs and can help improve your health and quality of life.  One of MedFit's leaders is here to discuss all this on today's episode of the Optimal Aging Podcast. Brian Prendergast is a longtime member of the fitness industry, as founder and president of High Five Health and Fitness, a trainer, wellness coach and podcast cohost, with Christine Conti, of Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone.This is all interesting, frontier-level stuff, and I know you'll be interested by what Brian has to share.

Can you look back on your life and see a moment when everything changed for you?When you suddenly had to decide which way to go, what to do… how to even proceed?This week's guest on the Optimal Aging podcast was just 31 when she received frightening medical news: she was diagnosed with a disease that could lead to crippling rheumatoid arthritis — as it had for her beloved grandmother.From that moment, Christine Conti began a journey that led to dedicating her life to fitness for herself and for others. Christine is now a veteran trainer, co-host of a podcast Called Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone, author of medical-fitness courses, and now — in January — the author of a book titled appropriately “Split-Second Courage: What If Your Fears Were the Key to Your Dreams?”ResourcesContiFit.comChristine on LinkedInNaamly -- Support our advertiser, who helps you keep in touch with your membersRollga Foam RollersNational Recovery Month on SAMHSA.orgAbba

Episode 231 - Christine Runs 100 Miles!“To finish a 100 mile race, it’s not about physical toughness…it’s about mental toughness andmindset.” “There was never a doubt in my mind that I would not finish…the key was to find a wolfpack and stick together…we promised each other we would all finish.” - Christine What must it be like to run 100 miles? In this episode, the Two Fit Crazies bring you the long-awaited recap of the C and O Canal 100 Mile Race! Sit back and take in all the craziness as Brian asks Christine how she got her hands on one of the most coveted prizes in the ultra-endurance world, a finishers belt buckle. Listen up as Christine dishes out the wild details of what goes into completing an ultra-endurance race. From gathering a loyal crew, eating a pound of bacon, climbing muddy cliffs in pitch black pouring rain, to spotting black bear cubs and dealing with hallucinations, you will want to run out and sign up for the next ultra-event near you. That may be a bit of a lie after you hear about the toenail casualties and the fact that over half of the athletes that showed up at the starting line never finished. Also, hear a huge shout out to Angel Bob, Dr. Mindy, Shannon, and Marley the Puppy for being the best crew in the world, and of course Mike Conti! Wait until you hear about how Christine’s husband stepped up in the middle of a cold rainy night to pace her in for the last 30 miles. That goodness for old school rap music! If you forgot why this podcast is called the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone, prepare to be reminded! Now go out and do something fit crazie! Stay Healthy!
