Putting in A+ effort to become better in everything we do is amazing, especially in the career that we choose.

We want to reach our goals. We want to perform at our peak and be the best we can be.

But what if giving our maximum effort is actually costing us our health?

Shifting her career from chef to personal trainer, Jo Rushton is an author, educator and holistic healer, who kicked off her transformation by joining a bodybuilding competition.

She spent years and years of training to get the body she wanted. But behind the scenes, her health was giving up on her. 

It all changed when Jo learned about the amazing world of holistic health. She found profound healing in every aspect of her life. Physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.

And she never looked back.

This episode is a little different from what I usually do, but it’s packed with a lot of amazing things you’ll want to know about health, and overall wellness.

I can’t wait to have you listen to this conversation,  so stick around and hit on that play button now.

Look forwards to seeing you there

Cheers
