In this podcast, I welcome Lauren Brooks, wife and mom of 4, successful entrepreneur and Kettlebell Queen who\u2019s living a spacious life in southern California. Lauren shares with us that\xa0\xa0

after finding what she knew to be her calling in kettle bells, she also found her self in a male-dominated organization and culture that just didn\u2019t feel right to her.\xa0 After repeatedly being told she was \u2018too nice\u2019 and 'not manly enough\u2019 she decided to step away from the safety of the organization that had taught her her craft, take a leap of faith and start her own thing where she\u2019s been able to successfully build her brand her own way!

Lauren shares that public speaking used to be her greatest fear, how she conquered that fear and how that victory has empowered her to do what she knows she\u2019s meant to do.\xa0

She then shares some recent breakthroughs in vulnerability on social media as she has peeled off layers and revealed more of her humanness both as a woman and a mom and how she\u2019s been able to slay a few demons from her youth by making the decision to stop taking things so personally.\xa0

We talk about the importance of community to our well-being and how Lauren is building her global community as well as inspiring neighbors to connect with each other.\xa0

Lastly, Lauren tells us how listening to a tugging at her soul led her to take a recent trip that both stretched and nourished her spiritually and has had a profound impact on her since she\u2019s been back home. Join me as I jump back into the interviewer's seat and listen in on this truly inspiring and engaging conversation with Lauren!\xa0
