What does it look like for you to be fit in your life right now? What does your body need today? And how can a working woman keep up with her health while she travels?
Personal trainer and podcaster Jen Whitmore and I talk about practical ways to stay fit in your real life, why it’s important, and what you can do to take care of yourself while you’re on the road. If you’ve ever wondered how to protect your health as you travel and what being fit is all about, listen in.
If you want to stay motivated and inspired when you’re online, follow someone on social media who looks like you, e.g. she is the same height and body type as you are. It’s important to identify with someone who is the same size and shape as you.
Your body changes as you age so it’s important to ask, “What’s good for my body? What does being healthy in my body look like?”
There’s always outside input wherever you go, but remember that health is crucial to living life.
It’s important to know what your body can physically handle. Losing weight takes time. You need to build up to things. You can’t go from zero minutes of working out to 60 minutes of working out in one session.
Remember that the female body goes through so much: childbirth, miscarriage, menopause, monthly periods. Women tend to keep their emotions in their bodies.

For many business travelers, they have a vacation mindset even when they’re not on vacation. We eat bad things because we want to experience new things. However, we can’t afford a vacation mindset when consistently traveling.
Traveling also means that you’re busy, you don’t know where to go for healthy options, and you’re entertaining clients. These factors make it easy to throw in the towel on health when you travel.
Not only do you need to eat well, but you need to exercise. Jen’s program helps give control back to travelers.
