•
This week on Sweat Daily, we're turning the tables once again and sharing an interview from The Rachel Jay Podcast, where Rachel and her guests explore their personal insights, practical tips and inspiration to help you live your best life. Here is what Rachel herself has to say:
I’m very excited to share this week’s guest episode with you. The fitness queen herself, Kayla Itsines drops into the pod this week. Kayla is the co-founder of Sweat and author of her new book Reboot with Kayla.
I had the pleasure of sitting down with Kayla in Brissy for this chat and if you’re a woman who is ready to recommit to your goals and put yourself first, this is the episode for you!
An absolute gem of a person, Kayla is the embodiment of all things fitness and fun. And the perfect example of how living a healthy and fit lifestyle doesn’t have to be hard, but rather an opportunity to find what works for you, just show up for yourself and be consistent.
As women, we live such busy lives, often with lots of responsibilities and hustle culture mentality, we sometimes forget to prioritise ourselves.
In this chat, Kayla and I get stuck into;
Why women don’t prioritise themselves
Why it’s important that we put ourselves first
How to stop comparing yourself and your body to others
How Kayla dealt with losing control of her fitness and body for the first time during pregnancy
Kayla’s insights into postpartum training
Creating a healthy relationship with food
That one time Kayla tried a diet (and it went horribly wrong)
Why you shouldn’t believe everything on social media
Kayla’s tips on how to amend your training during your cycle
The one question you need to ask yourself to change your mindset
Finding motivation when you feel uninspired
Plus so much more!
This is a must-listen jam packed chat with so many helpful insights and tips on mindset, motivation and tips from Kayla. Take a listen and tell us what you loved and learnt from this episode by leaving a rating and review wherever you listen to your pods!
