Manage episode 433569007 series 3592402
Have you ever questioned how your mindset and self-limiting beliefs impact your fitness journey? Join us for an engaging conversation with my mentor and friend, Etienne Asselin, as we take a reflective trip down memory lane, exploring our fitness evolution over the past two years. We delve into Etienne's inspiring journey of overcoming his self-limiting belief that he couldn't run and his decision to sign up for a marathon in Italy, and how it has reshaped his perception of fitness, courage, and determination.
Throughout this episode, we also explore the profound influence of mentorship, intertwining our personal and professional growth. We share how creative teaching methods can simplify complex fitness mechanics and help us understand the interconnectedness of our body better. Most importantly, we discuss the pitfalls of trying to "fix" imbalances and how misconceptions can hinder overall progress. You'll hear us question and challenge conventional beliefs surrounding imbalances and their impact on performance.
To wrap up, we dive into the significance of nuanced communication, the role of curiosity in continuous refinement, and the importance of maintaining integrity in our actions. We reflect on how choosing heart over mind can influence our mindset and decision-making process on our fitness journey and in life overall. So come along and be a part of this passionate discussion as we redefine fitness and challenge the status quo together.
