I'm Monica Packer and today I want to welcome our resident

podcast manager and excellent conversationalist Taylor Rockwood. Thanks for being

here Taylor. Always happy to be here. Thanks for having me. Today's feature is casual convos, where we have casual chats on topics that range from casual to not so casual.

Taylor, you are choosing our topic today, so what have you got for us?

So today, I thought we could talk about our most basic tips to break through exercise barriers.

Love that. Why did you choose that topic? Well, you recently reached a coaching call that was kind of a deep dive into this topic and it's not the first time that you've helped someone with that. If people were to search back, I know there's a few episodes.

And then you brought it to Instagram and we're kind of talking about it and the conversations there

have been so eye-oping and you specifically asked what are some of the

barriers that women are facing and there's just so many like if anyone feels like

exercises a struggle they are clearly not alone and this is a complex

topic there's a lot of layers as to why or how someone exercises or doesn't.

And in those coaching calls, you know,

you can get really specific and kind of deep.

But for this conversation, I thought

we could just chat about kind of our relationship

with exercise and just the really basic things that have worked for us and

I'm just hoping something we say might resonate with someone who's listening.

So if you agree to that.

That explanation. So if you agree to that. Okay.
