11: Welcome back! I am SO excited to share my interview with my personal fitness trainer, Michael Daniels, with you. Michael opens up about countless topics, ranging from why you should always stay true to yourself to the importance of prioritizing self love. He shares his thoughts on how being incarcerated molded him into who he is today, and why sometimes the best thing you can do for yourself is distance yourself from those you once shared bonds with. I'm also catching you up on my life! Topics include but are not limited to my Plant Mom Journey, the importance of tracking your meditations on your Apple Watch, octopuses, Rachel Hollis, my (lack of) organizational skills, Harry Potter, and MUCH much more. Enjoy!
