Episode 301 - Reena Vokoun - CEO of Passion Fit

“I am a recovering perfectionist…striving for personal and professional success.”

Maybe you have heard this adage before, but today, the amazing Reena Volkoun is going to ignite the fire inside of you to make positive lasting changes in your life.

Trina Gray - Owner of Bay Athletic Club and Founder of Team Rockstar - Episode 269

Episode 269 - Trina Gray - Owner of Bay Athletic Club and Founder of Team Rockstar 

“Learn to move through struggle faster…feel it, look at it, embrace it. Feel all the feelings and move forward.” 

“Be willing to show up HARD where you are right now…be noticed…be her now!” 

You are in for a treat! Today, the Two Fit Crazies welcome the amazing entrepreneur and fitness and wellness trailblazer, Trina Gray. Joining the show from her home overlooking Lake Huron in northern Michigan, Trina is about to unleash some powerful lessons learned over the past few decades that allowed her the ability to “show up calm and confident” to all that life had to throw at her. Listen carefully as Trina reveals how she was able to draw the strength and courage to leave her journalism career, move to a new state, start multiple businesses, and care for two young children. While Trina claims she was born with a certain decisiveness, she believes that her love for collaboration over competition has been a key factor in her success at building two successful fitness clubs in Michigan and her world-wide coaching success with BeachBody. To learn more about Trina, her speaking events, fitness clubs, BeachBody coaching, or even a bit more about her collaborations with the honorary “Fit Crazie,” Todd Durkin, take some notes as you listen to this episode or visit www.teamrockstarfit.com.

Are you ready to separate yourself from the amateurs and embrace the “PRO” that you are? In this episode of the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast, Dre Baldwin, AKA “Dre All Day,” is going to share some powerful secrets to take control over the 1% of your life that you actually control. From growing up in Philly and playing Division III collegiate basketball to getting drafted to play professional ball in Europe, Dre has figured out what it takes to rise above the competition! With a background in business and a passion for learning, it is no surprise that Dre’s ability to “learn how to play the game” has translated into his best-selling books, TedX Talks, personal development events, and successful business ventures. Listen up as Dre deconstructs what it means to have a “high-level of disagreeability” in order to “go against the grain” and work towards proving yourself right!
