Stronger Than You Look Podcast 

I was so excited to be invited on the podcast Stronger Than You Look with Zack Henderson owner of Charlotte Kettlebell & Strength in North Carolina. This was by far one of my most favorite podcasts to record. We talk about my journey through fitness from classical ballet to nautilus, stairmasters, Bally’s Total Fitness, Urban Rebounding, to kung fu, kettlebells, the Iron Maiden Challenge, and NOW powerlifting.

We talk about how I rose above my first failed attempt at the Iron Maiden Challenge in October 2013 and how I conquered it 9 months later in July 2014, and about how my mindset changed from my first attempt to the second time when I actually completed it, in addition to how and why I started the workshop I Am Not Afraid To Lift and the amazing community it fosters.

Shout outs to some of those who have been there along the way through my fitness and strength training journey, Greg Robins, Charlie Weingroff, Tony Bonvecio, and the Cressey Sports Performance Women’s Powerlifting Group.
