Balancing fitness and battling cancer: one fitness professional’s story

Today’s guest brings applicable ways to move your body after 40 as well as offering a different perspective as a fitness professional who battled cancer in 2019.

 I love our conversation today because it humanizes the professionals. We talk about perspective changes through her cancer battle, finding your own balance, and motivation shifts. And if you are someone who likes a strong takeaway, Aimee breaks down an ideal week of fitness over 40 to help you function your best.

Fitness Trainer and Educator Aimee Nicotera offers a perfect combination of tough love, finding your own balance, and applicable takeaways to help you create a balanced workout. Amy Connell | Graced Health Podcast
