What happens when you take a reluctant podcast host and exercise novice to a reformer Pilates class for "research" purposes?

You end up with two closet confessionals and an in depth discussion centered around the complex relationship many of us have with exercise. From folks who see it as a necessary evil, to those who can turn it into a successful career and community.

Our guest this week is Kiara, who is the owner of BODYROK in Santa Barbara, CA. BODYROK is a Pilates-inspired workout on a reformer machine, designed to improve energy levels and fuel your metabolism while sculpting and defining your body.

Kiara previously worked in the Silicon Valley tech scene as a Product Manager. Her passion for teaching fitness classes as a part-time BODYROK instructor in San Francisco led her to make a career shift and open her own studio in Santa Barbara a year ago.

In this episode, Kiara shares her unique journey through her career and her fitness. She also shares some valuable tips for listeners on how to incorporate exercise into their lifestyle.

They say if you do what you love, you'll never work a day in your life. We hope this episode leaves our guests pondering how they can chase their own passions, or, at least find different ways to incorporate fitness into their day to day.
