How faith plays a role in our fitness journeys with Sara
Listen now
Description
This is the week where both Jewish and Christians celebrate their holidays, both Hanukkah and Christmas. And I am all about faith and fitness here on my show and on all the work that I've been doing with BeFit4Akhirah. So having Sara come on the show to talk about faith and fitness from the Jewish perspective was super inspirational. The mission of Fit Jewess is the following: Fit Jewess has a two-fold mission: 1. To provide women and gals across the world with tips, guidance, and inspirationto help cross the divide between our fitness goals and current lifestyles from a bodypositive, weight-neutral perspective. In other words, to prove to matzah balls and potato latkes that we can and will befit despite our culture-specific idiosyncrasies. 2. To serve as a community of like-minded Fit Jewesses that supports, encouragesand cheers on one another. After all, only we truly know what it’s like to be fit, female and Jewish. On today's episode, we talked about the following: The traditions of Hanukkah. How faith played a role in our lifestyle and in getting active even more. The body image movement that Sara is on and how it's related to what I am going to be launching in 2020. And of course, so much more!
