Ep 98The Inside Scoop on Shopping & Its Impact On Our Future

Things you didn’t know you needed to know about shopping, Amazon, the answer to where “away” is once it is deemed trash, and so much more. Victoria had the time to watch Buy Now! The Shopping Conspiracy on Netflix and boy is it a doozy. It made such an impact that this whole episode was meant to break it down and encourage you to watch it yourself. So much damage, in more ways than one, is happening every time we click the “Buy Now” button and add items to our carts. The goal is that we will think twice before purchasing something new, maybe fix what isn’t permanently broken and save a little bit of the future one thing at a time! We are in a season of shopping, lets return it to the season of giving! Check out this documentary below as soon as you have a minute to put down the shopping bags. ————If you want to workout with us, at home or in person, check us out www.CFITfitness.com We would love to have you join the CFIT Community :)Follow us for updates, inspiration, and ridiculousness!Instagram: @fittoberealpodcast Instagram/Facebook/Tik Tok @cfitfitness Email us!

Ep 766 Month Check In of 2024! Previous Set Goals & Intentions

It is incredibly alarming to sit and think that we are already 6 full months into the year of 2024! How did that happen? When did that happen?? And most importantly, have you committed yourself to the goals and intentions you set for yourself back on January 1, 2024? Have those goals changed since then? Or are you more similar to us in the face that you have failed in initiating and keeping some of the goals you set out to accomplish? That’s where Episode 76 comes in. We are VERY honest about our intentions, our follow through, our failures, and some behind-the-scenes things you probably won’t be expecting. We pride ourselves on being real, and we got pretty darn real in today’s chat. We hope this resonates with you and we hope it instills any type of shift or change that you might be needing right now so you can have a different/great 6 months more months of 2024! Cheers to rolling into 2025 more intentional!—————If you want to workout with us, at home or in person, check us out www.CFITfitness.com We would love to have you join the CFIT Community :)Follow us for updates, inspiration, and ridiculousness!Instagram: @fittoberealpodcast Instagram/Facebook/Tik Tok @cfitfitness Email us!

Ep 75Hypothetically Speaking: Let's Have Fun!

We like a good time, and that usually comes in the form of a game or trivia or ya know, things Carly likes to torture Victoria with. In Episode 75 you get to hear it firsthand how Victoria struggles to make decisions and Carly bubbles over in frustration…it’s actually quite entertaining if you ask us. This episode is a fun and silly chat to get you through your commute, walk, cleaning house chores, and/or beach chair vibes. We all need more fun and ridiculousness in our lives, we hope we can aid you in that goal.—————If you want to workout with us, at home or in person, check us out www.CFITfitness.com We would love to have you join the CFIT Community :)Follow us for updates, inspiration, and ridiculousness!Instagram: @fittoberealpodcast Instagram/Facebook/Tik Tok @cfitfitness Email us!

Ep 73Foam Rolling & Massage Therapy: from Luxury to Necessity!

Foam rolling is super popular if you’re apart of the fitness world, but how much do you really know about it? The benefits of doing it? What about massages? Do you feel they are more for a luxurious moment in your month that you find it hard to make time for? Same! In Episode 73 we break down the reasons why Foam Rolling and Massages are no longer in the luxury compartment in your brain…they are a NECESSITY for your muscle health (and in turn, your overall health, of course). There are dos and don’ts and reasons to both forms of recovery, so make sure you listen all the way through!If this is the kick in the pants you need to pick up the phone and make your next massage appointment, don’t miss this opportunity! Use those gift cards that are accumulating in your gift card pouch. GIVE a massage fist card, even a partial payment, for your next gift. It’s much appreciated and its a push in the healthier direction to those we love!

Ep 72Finding Certainty in the Uncertain

As important and serious as this subject matter is, we found silliness and fun per usual! If you can’t laugh about life than what can you do?!? Life is Certainly Uncertain, but all have a hard time accepting the unknown. We turn those fears into thoughts and create narratives of anxiety that we keep in our bodies….but what if we could live less worried about the future? What if we could “relax” and find our peace within the unknown. Listen in on this chat and take some good pointers down!

Ep 67The Connection: Cortisol & Belly Fat

E

We all know there are two ways to respond to stress when it comes to food: eating your emotions or the inability to prioritize food. Either way, 9 times out of 10, the result is a bloated belly that just won’t go away. Episode 67 talks through the WHY! Hopefully we explain it in a way that resonates for you as much as it did for us. There is a major connection between Cortisol and Belly Fat, so lets get to breaking it down!
