Description

Today I speak with IFBB Bikini Pro Carrie Hennessy, a wife and girl mom to a 18 months old and 13 year old plus a dog mom. She loves true crime podcasts, being outdoors and anything adventurous. She loves connection, laughing and advocating for women. One of her favorite quotes is “ If you don’t like something, change it. If you can’t change it, change your attitude.” She entered the bodybuilding world after leaving an abusive marriage and finding the courage to choose herself. Fitness took her from feeling powerless and defeated to empowered and strong. She is a Coach at Fitbliss Fitness.   Her first NPC show was in March 2015, and later that year, competed at North Americans.  She earned her Pro card at USA’s in 2018 after placing 1st. She last competed in 2021 and is returning to the Pro stage this year!   TOPICS COVERED -leaving an abusive marriage -choosing a partner -learning from mistakes -friendships in bodybuilding -adapting your routine -taking a break from stage -embracing the lifestyle -competing for the right reasons -setting boundaries -starting a family   CONNECT WITH CELESTE: Website: http://www.celestial.fit Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/celestial_fit/ All Links: http://www.celestial.fit/links.html CONNECT WITH Carrie: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/carrielawlerhennessy/   TIME STAMPS 1:00 introduction 5:25 leaving an abusive marriage 10:01 finding love 16:23 learning to trust yourself 21:18 changing views of herself 24:34 finding bodybuilding and coaching 28:03 finding empowerment 31:01 competing & motherhood 39:30 changes made to go Pro 44:52 living the lifestyle 52:00 controlling the narrative around your body 1:06:13 maintaining life while in prep 1:12:10 pregnancy and postpartum 1:17:20 prep changes after having a baby 1:20:00 decoding to grow her family 1:26:24 navigating client comparison 1:33:50 advice for competitors   CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE FREE FOOD RELATIONSHIP COACHING SERIES   CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE FREE POST SHOW BLUES COACHING SERIES   LEARN MORE AND APPLY FOR MY 5 WEEK FOOD RELATIONSHIP HEALING & DISCOVERY COACHING PROGRAM   FOR OTHER FREE RESOURCES, LIVE EVENTS, AND WAYS TO WORK WITH CELESTE CLICK HERE
