“(I am most proud of) the shift to seeing myself as someone that goes and adventures and is capable of anything – I am super proud of that. That, saying yes to everything, I wasn’t always like that. I used to wait for the right time to do things. I used to want to wait until I looked a certain way or I had a certain amount of money or certain conditions were ideal or perfect. Shedding myself of that and understanding that the perfect is the enemy of the good is something that I am so proud of. Your experiences are crafted by the story that you tell yourself. Like that is literally the most potent story you can tell yourself – the one in your own head.”

In this episode, we welcome the always HYPE Jenna Celmer. Jenna has an inspiring story which she created by her giving herself permission to be who she wants to be and do what she wants to do. Jenna is an avid power lifter, works for the Olympic Committee advocating for anti-doping programs and clean competition, adventures as often as possible, and is a self-proclaimed swagger coach. Jenna has a passion for adventure and she makes it happen.

In our conversation we discuss:
1. Jenna’s work with the US Olympic Committee Partnership for clean competition and her work in the arena of anti-doping.
2. How power lifting switched her mindset from liking her body for what it looked like to LOVING her body for what it can do.
3. Prioritizing and committing to your top priorities.
4. Social media and the authenticity of the connections she has made.
5. Benefits of being passionate and bringing your own hype.

This episode is so freaking valuable! Jenna is such an inspiration and there are great points that she makes throughout that we all can take and apply to our own lives.
