It's that time of the year. Colds and flu are going around, and if you have kids your even more susceptible to getting sick. The main question I am always asked, is "should I workout when I'm sick?" Will it make it worse? Can I sweat this out? In this episode I dive into when you can workout if you're sick, and when it's best to take a rest day.

In this episode Deja and I dive into the Theory of Relevance. Basically the theory states that if you don't make decisions in alignment with your ultimate goal, you will struggle to get there. We have seen this both in the women we work with and in business, and we touch on both in this episode. One of the biggest areas we see women struggle with this, is setting a weight loss goal that is tied to the scale. When in reality it's often not the number women are aiming for, rather the way they will look, feel, and the things they will gain from that healthier lifestyle. We dive into this and much more in this episode!  The book mentioned in this episode is Winning Through Intimidation by Robert J. Ringer.
