“Your strengths have ultimately come from all the challenges that you’ve learned.”
The Student Fitness Experts podcast is a very intentional venture that aims to create a playful movement to help students grow up with inner confidence and self-awareness and a healthy body and mind.
In this episode, Karen and Farah open up about their “why” to start their podcast and certification program. We imbibe a lot of wisdom from Simon Sinek’s theory about building an infinite mindset and learn why it is inexplicably important to let your students and children know your struggles in life. Karen and Farah break down the different pointers from their carefully curated certification program to help coaches, teachers, and parents understand the power of finding their own strengths and expanding them to succeed in different areas of life.
Tune in to the episode today to connect with your purpose and set your children for ultimate success!

Quotes:
“When you work with students, telling them what your challenges are and where your struggles have been, it’s so helpful for them, because a lot of the times and especially as a coach, and as a personal trainer, people just kind of look at you for who you are, right now, they don’t see all of the things that you’ve been through.”
“If you’re focusing on the process, how you’re going through it, rather than the end game, then that’s where you’re going to have this willingness to be vulnerable and say, Okay, I learned from this mistake.”
“The incident mindset talks about the known and unknown rules, but they can be changed that the objective is to stay in the game as long as we can.”
“Your strengths have ultimately come from all the challenges that you’ve learned.”
