I always enjoy sitting down with Brett Jones, Master Strong First instructor, athletic trainer, and author of many books on strength training. In this episode, we dive into what it takes to stay consistent for the long haul, how to reinvent yourself at 54, and the many types of addiction that plague us.

October is a busy month: We honor Pink October, Hispanic Heritage and Filipino American History Month. In order to give myself a bit of a mental health break, I am going to be sharing some episodes that you might have missed.

This interview was recorded 5 years ago in celebration of my mom's 70th birthday. We discuss her experience with breast cancer and her healing process.

We of course do not recommend this for everyone, but listen on to hear survival story.
