Welcome to Season 8 of #WeGotGoals- new cohost, new format, new year!

#WeGotGoals by aSweatLife

My mantra going into 2023 in general is "this should be fun." It's meant to be a not-so-gentle reminder that I started aSweatLife for joy - I wanted to fill my own life with joy and hopefully help others do the same too.

For me there are too sides to this idea: the first is actively seeking out ways to add fun to my life and the other is eliminating the stuff that is depleting my joy. Don't deplete my joy, you guys.

When it comes to aSweatLife's podcast - #WeGotGoals - I've been interviewing people by myself for a while. When thinking about adding more joy to the experience of podcasting, I remembered one of my other favorite catch phrases: Everything Is Better With Friends.

So I asked, nudged, pushed - whatever - one of my favorite people on the planet Kelly Matkovich into a co-host position. Kelly is aSweatLife's Head of Community, so she brings with her that experience of what folks in our community want and need. I'm already having more fun.

All seasons, you'll hear us diving deeper with authors and experts who were featured on the pages of aSweatLife.com. We'll ask the big WHY behind the pieces that cover fitness, friendship, fun, and food.

And on every episode, we'll give you a glimpse into what we're loving, our favorite resources, and what's good in our lives.

On this, the first episode of the season, Kelly and I share more about our journeys with aSweatLife, and I shared something new and noteworthy with Kelly (just when she thought she knew everything about me), we also dig into what we're looking forward to this season.
