About this episode

In this week's episode we discuss all things lifting weights. I tell my story, give you some science & try to guide you to a path of falling in love with being strong, and lifting for fun, without the need to control your body or measure your progress only through your physical being. You are beautiful just as you are, within the pursuit of your dreams. Find your happy movement, and how to play to your strengths, and you will create a lifelong sustainable habit.


Until next week,

Cass 💛
