Joy opened up and shared about her experience as a single mom, a professional who works in the mental health field and how she copes with having an autoimmune disease that, when activated, can be debilitating.

In today’s episode, I’m talking with Wendy Crabbe. Wendy had a life that was good. She had a good job and a good marriage. But she wanted something a little more and she decided, like many women today, to try and lose a little bit of weight. What started as a seemingly simple task has revolutionized how she looks at food, her health and her purpose.

Mara is a young woman navigating the typical trials of life. But her energy and approach to solving problems is nothing short of incredible. Listen in as she and I chat about her various fitness activities, including her most recent venture into pole dancing. Then, try not to let your jaw hit the floor when she talks about biking across the country with her dad. Yes, you heard that correctly, she biked across the country. You can find Mara on Instagram at @myopenpassport and the stuff that she posts over there is absolutely incredible.
