I know we're back on a little bit of a weird day, but I have a beautiful mini-sode for you guys with the best coach ever, Leah, and I'm so excited to have her on because as you guys know, we have been running our no pun intended running our running strength eight week program and I wanted to have her on the podcast to kind of give a little bit of feedback on her adventure in running

as well as what this program entails. So make sure that if you haven't already, follow Leah, check out the show notes, link in bio description box, click all the links, click all the links, click them all, okay, click, click, click, click, check it out, join the program. This episode is purely just kind of like educational. How do you balance running with training? How do you eat? How do you sleep? How do you recover? What do you do? Can you do this if your goal is

body building? Can you do this if your goal is body loss? Can you do this if your goal is fat loss? You know, whatever it might be, that's exactly what this episode is. Tomorrow we are back with a brand new episode. So I'm very excited to be back recording in the studio, okay, nothing serious, but I'm excited to be back with you guys. It was really awesome to have a few weeks off with quote maternity leave and just kind of have a little break from recording and doing so much.

I'm just kind of like finding my flow. So if you guys haven't yet listened to Sunday's episode, Sunday was all about my birth story, how that went down, what went down, et cetera.

Again, if you have any questions, please hop in one of our DMs, you'll hear us kind of explain that in the podcast itself, and make sure that you go follow Leah.

Hello. Hello. Hi. How are you? Oh my gosh. It's going well. How are you? Newly 27 year old? Oh my gosh. I know I'm one one day into your 27. I feel I'm feeling good. So are you feeling like so wise? Oh, yeah, this is crazy to change. You know, I'm just having so suddenly. I know I swear to God after like the age 22 for some reason. Like once I turned 23, it was

just like, oh, this is like what older people talk about, where it's just like another fucking day. Yeah, it's kind of wild. And I'm like, man, I never thought I'd miss like, you know, your college years. Oh, yeah, I'm being so excited to like graduate, be finally done with school. And I'm like, okay, can I go back? I know it's, it's a weird complex. Like even thinking back to high school, right? Like high school middle school, you couldn't wait to like be on to that bigger and better thing. And I think even just like,

weird life lesson, but that's something that I've tried to work on so much since I was pregnant with Maddox is like truly just being where I'm at in that present time.

Because you finally get to like that next thing. And then you're like waiting for the next thing. Yeah, like it's a constant revolving cycle of like sadness.

I know. Yeah, like, okay, what, what thing can I cross off the list list next? And so like, okay, cool. Like another day. Let's just like do my best, you know, yes, no, absolutely. So I know that you totally get the vibe there. But I hope you had a great birthday. Did you need anything fun?

Honestly, it was just kind of like a pretty chill day, but we did go me and Brandon went downtown to the amway and green downtown green rapids. And there's this really cool restaurant, like at the top level of the amway hotel. And so we had like this beautiful view for dinner. The food was really good. I tried octopus for the first time. Oh, yeah.

Brandon got it like as his dish. And I was like, I just feel like I have to try it. And I'm not somebody that likes trying new foods, especially seafood, like seafood's just not really my thing.

I was like, you know what? Let me just be an adult and try it.

It wasn't like the worst thing. Honestly, the taste kind of reminded me of lobster. Okay. The texture was just kind of strange. Like you literally felt the whole like tentacle suction cup situation.

And you're like, was it like raw? No, like, are you thinking? Are you speaking like more like calamari? No, it was it was cooked and everything.

Like, okay, itself, like was fine. And it honestly wasn't very fishy. I was expecting it to really taste like straight up like the ocean. But no, it didn't. It was it was pretty pretty decent. It's hard.

Okay. Well, that's fun. I saw your your makeup and your your vibe. I was like, oh, she's next today. Hello, I know you have to document it. Just because like we're always working out and filling and working at home.

And so when you get dressed up, like, take all the pictures, take all the for real. I wish I was the person who liked to wear makeup daily. Yeah, even to the gym, you know, like go off queen. Like if that makes you feel good.

But man, I just can't. And when I do, I hate how I look. So I'm like, I got to go. Yeah, I know I kind of felt like that was like dang like you put all this work into the makeup. And then you start like kind of preferring your natural face, you know, you're like, dang, I'm kind of popping off without make.

But like the power in that.

Well, I'm so excited to have you on. I don't think I've actually had you on my my podcast. I don't think so. I think both times were for below the influencer.
