Jaclyn Phillips is the Head Coach of Team Strong Girls and a vocal mental health advocate.
Jaclyn joins me to share her wisdom and thoughts on:
-How someone can on the surface seem like they live a charmed life but deal with unseen mental health challenges
-Feeling pressure to portray a happy and successful exterior
-How people feel isolated and alone in their struggles as everyone else appears to be happy and have their life together
-How fitness “saved” Jaclyn
-The limits of what fitness can do for mental health
-The potential negative impact of fitness messaging and media
-How she makes fitness work during times of extensive travel
-The belief that you need to do Pilates or other forms of fitness to “look like” the fitness professional, marketer, influencer
-Fitness professionals who are using GLP-1 agonist medications but not open about it while promoting their programs and using their body/appearance to sell
-And much more
