Today, your hosts are joined by one of Kara's long-time, hometown best friends, DJ Wunder. DJ is a marine and soon-to-be personal trainer and in this episode, he covers everything from his childhood and overcoming trauma to joining the marines to finding his greater purpose.
DJ shares his background and past struggles with health and fitness with Kylie and Kara, diving into the often unaddressed difficulties as a man trying to "get fit," as well as the stigma around mental health for men. He shares his journey working with a therapist, and how much prioritizing his mental health has changed his life for the better.
This episode includes a lot of laughs, but also offers a ton of insight about turning your struggles into strengths, but also to not being afraid to ask for help when you need it.
