84: How to radically re-define yourself as mom, face your fears, + live your truth-With fitness instructor mompreneur Kayla Johnson Neal

What would it take to radically re define ourselves as moms? Are we stuck in a rut, or wanting to pivot or add more creative passions into our lives? Are we in a situation that is not working but we stay because of fear? Today's guest & fitness instructor mom of six, Kayla Johnson-Neal, knows from experience what it was like to hit rock bottom and have to re-invent herself and believe in her own truth. 

After a tough divorce & three kids by 31, Kayla had to pick herself up by her bootstraps and decide what direction she wanted her life to go. Fear or empowerment? Having always been ambitious about the fitness world, Kayla went on to branch out from a day job that turned into her very own business.

Now with thriving businesses, and married to the love of her life, Kayla believes passionately in how our lows can teach us the most and lead us to where we are meant to be. She also feels so called to help other mamas take care of themselves and empower their own goals and creativity.
