About this episode
In this Coach Confessional, Le and I are tackling a bunch of different topics. We take a moment to look back on our life-changing coach retreat in Costa Rica, where the coaches really felt a sense of unity and learned the value of stepping outside their comfort zones. I also take some time to share what I've learned from "The Deals That Made the World," particularly how certain business deals, like the redefinition of the BMI index, have left a lasting mark on the fitness and diet industry. Our conversation is a mix of our own stories of personal growth and a critical look at the practices within our industry. "One of my favorite things to do is to push people out of their comfort zone because there is a part of your brain that will grow if you challenge yourself." In this episode, you will learn the following: The benefits of being pushed out of your comfort zone How a statistician at MetLife Insurance lowered BMI categories to create a health panic in the US Sketchy practices in the healthy and wellness industry The value of community Links and Resources Want to become a FASTer Way Coach: https://www.fasterwaytofatloss.com/certification Join FASTer Way at www.fasterwaytofatloss.com Don't forget to check out fasterwayshop.com Follow Amanda on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/amandatress Follow Le on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/le_bergin
