We are experiencing this series over 12 weeks (the 12 core classes) with also several intro classes and the last celebration class/ festival. Through these 12 classes its important to set an intention and watch your intention grow into your manifestation as you nurture your intention through each class.   There is a Zodiac Energy Empowerment Series™ Journal available to track your journey. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CRKHGD8S?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_dp_HXB6GHNAFFS6G9X9YY10 Location: DK Farms & Gardens   Date: Monday, March 18, 2024   Time EST: 10:00am - 11:00am Amount: $35

(Originally aired 2022) Ever wondered what it takes to become a personal trainer? To help answer that, we recently sat down with fitness industry veteran, Rick Richey from the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM), who enlightened us with his nearly two-decade journey in the fitness world. From his early days as a martial arts enthusiast through to becoming a key figure at the renowned NASM, Rick's insights provide an engaging and revealing exploration of the fitness industry. He reveals the ins and outs of personal training certifications, comparing his own experiences with the ACSM Health Fitness Instructor exam and NSCA content.Nutrition and its integral role in fitness also takes center stage in our conversation with Rick. We discuss the nuanced approach NASM takes in teaching about nutrition, emphasizing that trainers should empower their clients with knowledge, rather than dictate their eating habits. Trainers, says Rick, can use a client-centric approach to help clients make their own decisions and live their own life. This empowering perspective is one that every aspiring fitness professional should take note of. As we wrap up our enlightening chat, education becomes the focal point. Rick shares his views on the importance of teaching people self-efficacy and how to move on their own - a critical part of personal training. We also delve closer into NASM's accreditation process, providing a behind-the-scenes look at how fitness education certification works. As a special takeaway, Rick shares his mantra of being a lifelong learner in the fitness industry, a message that resonates throughout our conversation and indeed, throughout the fitness industry as a whole.Walking is FitnessA daily ten-minute walking podcast that helps you build an exercise habit that sticksListen on: Apple Podcasts Support the show

After over 180 episodes, I think I finally understand the purpose of niching down. I know that sounds bizarre, and I did get the concept of a niche superficially, this episode was the one that I truly had that aha moment. When put into practical terms, the niche is not about you.  Yes, you can probably help all different types of people. But, the niche is for the consumer. They are doing the looking, not you. So the man who opened up my eyes clearer than ever before is Ren Jones. Ren is one of the true pioneers in the online coaching space and founder of Fitness Jones Training. Ren is a certified personal trainer through the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) and certified in sports and exercise nutrition through Precision Nutrition. He joins the show to share his incredible journey and business tips that have consistently set him apart from his peers.

I'm fortunate to know someone like Derek Brown. His writing, books, and expertise have been influential in what shaped me as a bartender. I've learned recipes, techniques, and storytelling from someone like Derek, and now as I continue life without alcohol, he has found a new way to influence me. His own journey has afforded him the pause it took to look at the way his life was being lived and the decision to change it. It's incredible to see Derek take his new direction and do what he does best, understand the best he can for himself, and amplify his knowledge in the direction that helps others. Thank you for your time, path, journey, and willingness to share, Derek. I owe you so much. Derek is the founder of Positive Damage, Inc., a NASM-certified wellness coach, advocate for mindful drinking, and expert on no- and low-alcohol cocktails. He is also known as a cocktail pioneer, former owner of the prestigious Columbia Room in Washington, D.C. (2017 “Best American Cocktail Bar” at the Spirited Awards), and one of the nation's top bartenders as Chief Spirits Advisor to the National Archives Foundation, which he jokes made him the highest-ranking bartender in the U.S. government. In 2017, Playboy magazine named Brown one of "The 10 Entertainers, Thought Leaders and Heroes Who'll Save Us in 2017." More recently, Brown was recognized as a leading beverage figure affecting positive change in the global bar industry by Drinks International in 2020 in their “Bar World 100” list. Brown changed his approach to drinking in 2018, realizing he had a problem with alcohol. At first, he wasn't sure how to approach drinking with his new concerns. He subsequently released his first book, Spirits, Sugar, Water, Bitters: How the Cocktail Conquered the World in 2019. He then decided it was time to be open about his struggles with alcohol and addressed his new appreciation for mindful drinking in a 2020 Vox article entitled, “Becoming a ‘mindful drinker' changed my life.” Shortly after, Brown published Mindful Mixology: a Comprehensive Guide to No- and Low-Alcohol Cocktails, pursued his certification in wellness through the National Association of Sports Medicine (NASM), and began to study positive psychology at the University of Pennsylvania. He wanted to understand how happiness and vitality affect our approach to drinking, and how simple interventions can improve our relationship with alcohol. Brown is now working to help foster a culture of mindful drinking and make room for everyone at the bar with delicious no- and low-alcohol drinks. He lives in Washington, D.C. with his family, skateboards and plays chess.

If you really stop and think about it, the vast majority of female clients fit pros work with are either pre- or postnatal. Many young adult females will have children in the future, while many others have already had children. This makes the pre/postnatal population one of the largest special populations for fitness professionals to work with, representing a significant business and healthcare opportunity.Despite this fact, most fitness professionals are ill-prepared to work with these women, as significant gaps exist in both the research and dissemination of education about exercise with pre/postnatal population. Our guest in episode 64, Brittany Citron, recognized this gap after her own pregnancy fitness experience and decide to do something about it. Brittany is the founder of PROnatal Fitness – an evidence-based pre & postnatal fitness education company. Their primary line of business is to provide evidence-based education to fitness professionals on how to safely and effectively work with their clients in the pre and postnatal period.PROnatal Fitness' unique approach to exercise during pregnancy amounts to training for pregnancy, and the postnatal period, as distinct events with their own specific demands and challenges, both physically and mentally. In effect, PROnatal “periodizes” the pregnancy process, just as an athlete periodizes their training for a “peak” part of their season. This perspective is quite intriguing and innovative.Our conversation covers a wide range of topics associated with coaching the pre and postnatal client. We'll explore myths/misconceptions, best practices, and the opportunities that exist helping people navigate “the event of a lifetime,” as Brittany puts it. Most certainly a high mileage conversation here given the number of people that can be helped by evidence-based pre and postnatal fitness instruction and coaching.Show Notes Page: https://www.wellnessparadoxpod.com/podcast/episode/64 Our Guest: Brittany Citron Brittany is a former corporate marketing executive turned fitness entrepreneur and the founder of PROnatal Fitness – an evidence-based pre & postnatal fitness education company. Her career change came after experiencing firsthand the significant void in evidence-based pre & postnatal exercise information and resources during her first pregnancy. Today, PROnatal Fitness has educated thousands of health & fitness professionals across the globe in its unique “Performance Training Approach,” which focuses on training for the pregnancy journey like the major athletic event that it is.In addition to overseeing the company's operations, Brittany is also a national fitness presenter and the co-author of 5 courses, including the company's signature “Pre/Postnatal Performance training Specialist Course.” She holds a BBA from the University of Michigan, a Personal Training Certification from the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM), a Group Fitness Certification from the American Council on Exercise (ACE), and several pre and postnatal specializations, including Program Design, Corrective Exercise, and Diastasis and Pelvic Floor rehabilitation. Brittany lives in New York City with her husband and two children but makes frequent trips back to her home state of Michigan, especially to her favorite city – Ann Arbor.

Porsha's journey to health and wellness started in 2019 while grappling with a 3 month, life altering health scare. Sick, tired and in pain, Porsha decided to unsubscribe from the suffering by becoming her own champion for healing. She turned to holistic and ancestral healing practices and committed herself to living a happier, healthier and stress-free life. She converted to a plant-based diet and a regular fitness routine, prioritized rest and stillness and adopted a daily practice of mindfulness, gratitude and spiritual grounding.

This is a special episode.  I get to speak with my friend, mentor and former boss, Neal Spruce.  I was working in my first management role in the health and fitness industry.  Our company, a small Gold's Gym chain in the New York/New Jersey area, took on a new program, APEX Fitness. n We were looking to offer a more complete nutritional solution to our members.  I was sent to a five-day educational seminar to learn more about Apex on an educational and operational level.  What I got was far more than an education.  Neal was the founder and CEO of Apex.  He was also the lead presenter for that school.  What I did not realize at the time was that I was about to step into an environment of complete belief, direction, and purpose.  I was never the same.  I went back to work not just with the intention of growing the businesses but creating a cause.  It was a fortunate time in my life.  The owner of Gold's Gym helped me reframe who I thought I was.  When I met Neal, he gave me a glimpse into who I believed I could become.  It was those circumstances, and meeting Neal that would lead me to become the Director of Professional Development for the National Academy of Sports Medicine, just a few years later.  It's not an exaggeration to say that the people Neal attracted and the movement he created shaped the industry.   In this episode Neal shares what he has learned about leadership, culture, wellbeing, and infectious authenticity over the course of his extraordinary career.  Neal Spruce is the founder and CEO of dotFIT Worldwide.  He is an author, licensed teacher, researcher, bodybuilding champion, consultant, and speaker.  He is the former owner and chairman of the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM).  Neal and our team spent over a decade growing NASM into a global leader in providing evidence-based certifications.  His partnerships and work in the fitness industry extend wide and deep.  He is an icon who has passionately impacted countless lives, including my own.   Enjoy!
