When You're a Badass but You're Tired: The Conversation We Almost Cancelled with Holly Myers
Manage episode 373599314 series 3296701
This week I'm talking Holly Myers--again! If you're on Instagram, you might know her as the barbell pistol squatting queen, and half of the strength coaching duo @liftwithhollyandarryn. Our first episode together, "Balancing Strength, Softness, and Silliness" was one of my most downloaded ever, and today she's back. Over the past few years I've gotten to know her as a client and as a friend and today we're talking about training & life in a more friendly kinda way! Holly is an ambitious, creative, multifaceted lady. Aside from heavy kettlebell ballistics, she enjoys writing, photographing on film, and being a genuinely curious person. She is notably obsessed with pastries and used to make ice cream for a living (for real). The practice of becoming stronger has empowered her to keep questioning her own limits, and in turn the narrow societal limitations imposed upon us all. Building strength helps her show up more authentically herself every day. Each time someone she is coaching breaks through a perceived limitation, she is deeply moved.
On this episode we talk about:
- What we've both been up to lately & how we almost didn't record this at all.
- The lie that is social media and what it's actually like to be a human with an online business and a following.
- What lifting looks like for her when she's just not feeling it.
- The shift we've noticed in our clients in the past few years.
- ADHD and each of our unique experiences with it.
- Why we all need to stop trying to fit ourselves into a box that doesn't make sense for us.
- Lots of other fun stuff!
