As well as what it took to bounce back from burnout and take ownership of the life she wanted to create. As a 13x fitness cover model and All-American Track Athlete, Amber has experienced first hand what it's like to feel the pressure of up-keeping appearances and physique ... as well as feeling extremely burnt out from it all. She shares about her "enough is enough" moment and what it took to reinvent herself and reconnect with what matters most. In the start of Amber's personal training career, she was broke but passionate and made it work with a bench in her driveway to teach clients. Listen in to hear how she went from there to now, as the owner of BuiltForHer.com and TRAIN 186, a workout studio in Searsport, Maine.
