Life has a weird way of nudging you into the direction you are truly meant to follow. In the moment, it may seem like it's a disaster, but when you remove despair from the equation, you see opportunity to flourish. Josef sits down with PRO Trainer, Coach Entrepreneur, and friend, Connie Beaulieu.  She fell into her fitness journey, literally and figuratively, and while patiently putting the building blocks together, she has become a leader and role model, in and outside of the fitness community. She's setting the example for many young aspiring fitness professionals, shining the light for a brighter future.

You will find inspiration in today's episode for those times when you feel life has thrown you a curve ball.
