Fitness & Fun: The Ultimate Duo for a Happier and More Fulfilled Life

She Talks Cents

In this episode of She Talks Cents, we discuss the two biggest pillars that make up our lives: fitness and fun. We’ve always believed that fitness and fun go hand in hand, one fuels the other.
Growing up, we were those kids constantly on the move, and that love for activity has shaped who we are today. We share our journeys, from gymnastics and cheerleading to cycling and Taekwondo, and how our fitness routines evolved from simple habits to full-blown passions. But it wasn’t always easy. We had to shift our mindsets and dig deep to stay committed, especially when life felt heavy.
We also explore the power of food as fuel and how changing our diets not only improved our physical health but transformed our mental clarity. For us, it’s more than just working out, it’s about feeling alive, connected, and energized.
We laugh, reflect, and share how we each found our groove, whether through the thrill of running or the intensity of cycling. We talk about the joys of food, adventure, and spending quality time with loved ones. Tune in to hear us peel back the layers of what it means to truly live a balanced, fun-filled life.
