How to Find Confidence in Different Area...

ERIKA DE PELLEGRIN
About this episode

We all go through seasons where life changes, again and again. Whether it’s becoming a parent, finding confidence, learning about money or figuring out who you are beyond your career, this conversation with Kayla Itsines dives deep into what her evolution has really looked like.


From finding confidence on stage and handling online negativity, to postpartum recovery and redefining balance between pregnancy, post partum, being online, fitness, family, and wealth - Kayla opens up in a way she never has before.


If you’ve ever thought, “I’m trying to find myself again” or felt like your confidence disappeared somewhere along the way… this episode will remind you it’s never gone, it just needs to be rebuilt in this new season of life, along with some personal insights into Kayla’s own journey.
