Carmie Hawkins (@carmhawk_getsfit) is a fitness and nutrition coach, and a badass mermaid goddess wife and mother of 2. After going through her own rocky road of a health and fitness journey Carmie has become a coach herself to speak to the women who are going through the same things she did. To help women become healthy, strong and confident and ultimately break the cycle of negativity for the next generation.  Carmie has been through the ringer of crazy diets, unreasonable workout programs, pills & potions, MLM’s and all the rest - so she gets it. Her message to you is that there is another way, a better way. A more effective way to become the strongest, healthiest and happiest version of yourself that will last a lifetime and then some, by passing these habits along to your kids.  We discussed her journey through fitness, and how she eventually arrived at the balanced place she’s at now and put herself in a position to give back. She gave a ton of insight into how these scams and predatory practices operate, and some really actionable tips that you can start to implement today to begin to break free.  I’m grateful for people like Carmie. These experiences that she’s had are very real and far too common. I personally don’t have any experience with them so these words hold a ton more weight coming from someone who’s been through it. There is a better way, and there are lots of people willing and able to help.  To get in touch with Carmie and stay tuned for some big things coming up, follow her on IG.
