EMBody Radio

On today's episode of EMBody Radio, I had the pleasure of interviewing my friend, social media influencer, owner/CEO of Amanda Bucci Fit/Bucci Radio/Fitness Online Coaching Academy (FOCA), entrepreneur, YouTuber, host of Bucci Radio, and so much more (if you can even imagine that). We talk everything from Amanda's journey into fitness, becoming an entrepreneur, handling criticism, taking back the term "influencer," learning to be yourself, and brand-building. Amanda's growth and perspective is truly beautiful and something you won't want to miss! Find Amanda here: amandabucci.com IG: @amandabucci YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/amandabuccifit

Welcome back to another episode! You guys have heard me talk for YEARS about my "Wonder Woman Mentality." "Become your own Wonder Woman. Don't rely on the energy of the outside world to fuel you. Find out what makes YOU strong and what makes YOU awesome, and run with it." December, for many of us, is a month of reflection. I've really been reflecting on my "Wonder Woman Mentality" these past couple of weeks, and I've been taking sort of a personal inventory of what it truly means to me, line by line, and what I hope it means to you guys. I think it's really easy to establish a mantra or a power phrase or whatever and use it, but then kind of forget what it actually means to you. This mantra/mentality/manifesto/whatever you want to call it has been such a guiding light in my journey both in fitness, but also as a human being. I think part of why it means so much to me is because it's a reminder of MY strength and MY power, which I think is something that us women tend to forget all too easily. Let's dive in to what the Wonder Woman Mentality means, and what it looks like to take that and apply it to yourself, your life, and your truth.

I feel like so many people either a) rush through their warmup to get to their training sessions, b) don't know how to warm up properly, or c) both. When you don't warm up effectively, you miss out on a huge chunk of your training potential. In today's episode, I talk to you about the benefits of/reasons behind a proper warmup, and what a good warmup should look like.

On today's episode, I talk a little bit about one of my favorite metaphors... In lifting, we have this thing called our "occulopelvic tilt." That's fancy words for, "When you move your gaze, you shift the positioning of your pelvis and potentially alter the movement." In today's epiosde, I dive into this metaphorically as it pertains to the focus of your gaze in your daily life. I talk about how your focus determines your fate, how what you magnify multiplies, and some of the most common focal shifts we can and should make to lead happier, more abundant, more impactful lives.
