🎙️ In this episode, of Everything’s Messy Podcast, I'm sitting down with Charissa Halonen, a powerhouse in the world of mindset, fitness, and nutrition coaching. 💪 Charissa shares her inspiring story, starting with her journey into fitness and how it naturally evolved into mindset coaching once she realized the magic of the mind-body connection. 🧠✨
We get into some real talk about the pressures she faced growing up as a competitive dancer—everything from body image issues to the impact of her family’s self-talk on her own perception. 🩰 It’s a deep dive into how these experiences shaped her approach to wellness today.
Charissa also breaks down the difference between motivation and discipline, making it clear why discipline is the real MVP for crushing those long-term goals! 🥇 We tackle common myths about women and strength training, and Charissa sets the record straight about how lifting weights can actually boost overall health and wellness.
Then, we shift gears to chat about nutrition and macros—yep, we’re talking carbs, fats, and proteins! 🍽️ Charissa explains how to balance them for peak performance and health. She also emphasizes the importance of staying hydrated and getting those electrolytes in, which is key for recovery and well-being. 💧
But it’s not all fitness and food; Charissa opens up about her personal journey with sobriety, sharing how her decision to go sober has transformed her life and strengthened her family connections. ❤️ It’s an honest, holistic conversation about breaking free from societal norms and embracing wellness in every aspect.
