Show Notes

This week on Get The Gist, we’re joined by Demi Santana Brown Fitness Babe & Love Is Blind star and let’s just say… she brought the energy AND the honesty 😅🔥


We kick things off chatting life abroad (UK vs Malta 👀✈️) before getting into Demi’s world from football roots to becoming a full-on “Gunna Runna” 🏃‍♀️💨 We talk committing to fitness, posting online, and what it really takes to hit big goals (including a mini marathon in under 2 hours… casual 👏🔥).


We get into marathon tips (size UP your runners pls), why running shoes aren’t always the vibe, and the importance of giving back and staying grounded 💛


🚨 One Good, One Bad is BACK 🚨 

From keratin treatments and Egypt trips to no-gym struggles — chaos as always 😅


The chat deepens as we talk comparison, life pressures, and faith navigating your own beliefs, questioning traditions, and finding what feels right for YOU 🙏✨


A really powerful moment as Demi opens up about living with endometriosis the good, the bad & the unseen struggles. If you needed a reminder you’re not alone, this is it 💛


Of course, we get into Love Is Blind 👀 what it’s really like behind the scenes, the emotional rollercoaster, and her biggest advice: just be yourself 🎥


We wrap things up with tomboy vs princess energy, pregnancy chats, and a chaotic GIST CHECK quiz (football, marathons & Arsenal 😅⚽🔥)


It’s giving laughs, honesty & real conversations — don’t miss this one 🎧💅
