About this episode
In this episode, I have the joy and privilege of sitting down with Elsabet (she/her/hers), a current Wai Way client (and personal friend of mine!). She openly shares her "health & fitness" journey, both before joining Wai Way as well as current day. Expect: relatable, vulnerable and inspiring - you do not want to miss out!

15:57 - on self-love, gratitude & nurturing self-confidence, how you can love your body at the same time as want more for yourself
21:31 - her motivations for deciding to actively invest in developing her health & fitness now, including it being an act of love in wanting to change the 'norm' of generational health-related issues within her community and culture
