About this episode

Today, we talk to one of our most exciting guests yet: Ben Bergeron. Ben is a world-renowned author, speaker, and coach to some of the world’s most elite CrossFit athletes. We cover a range of topics including what we want our health for, what we can learn from elite athletes, the link between mindset and health, how to instill healthy habits in your kids, and how to know what we should be chasing in life. We even both get some personal training advice for our own fitness journeys!
