Episode 24 features Steph Strine, a registered recovery coach, full-time fitness instructor, founder of ReSSil, and Marine Corps veteran. Through ReSSil, Steph leads sober retreats with a focus on fitness and healing through recovery, endurance, self-awareness, strength, integrity, and love. Beyond that, she has traversed the fitness industry coast to coast teaching across fitness studios such as CorePower Yoga, Equinox, SoulCycle, Mile High Run Club and more.

In this conversation, Steph and I discuss her decision to pursue a sober life. We dive into the difference between management and leadership across industries: from the military to ecommerce to fitness. We speak to the importance of practicing humility and acknowledging and owning up to your mistakes as a leader. Empowering leaders lead for the long-term and leave their egos at the door, choosing to elevate all voices in the room.

We also touch on what leadership in the fitness industry currently looks like for Steph, including making fitness more accessible and empowering individuals to reclaim their agency and workout in a way that suits them first and foremost. Steph is incredibly compassionate and real and her breadth of experiences lends to a one-of-a-kind conversation.

Tune in to hear us discuss:

• Leading for the long-term and letting go of ego
• Elevating all voices
• Managing versus leading
• Owning up to and verbalizing your mistakes
• Practicing humility
• Acknowledging your humanity
• Vulnerability in the fitness industry and normalizing all experiences
• Reclaiming your agency and giving yourself permission to do you
• Coming into the next level version of yourself by listening
• And more!
