300: Rose Wetzel: Shameless Ninja Warrior
Shameless Leadership - A podcast by Sara Dean - Martedì
Categorie:
As the founder of Stack-It! Mamas, Rose Wetzel loves empowering women when they feel most vulnerable – after giving birth (at least that’s when SHE felt most vulnerable). A personal trainer and professional athlete (obstacle course racing, specializing in Spartan Races and American Ninja Warrior), Rose has to stay fit for her livelihood (getting paid to work out sounds nice, right?), but after a post-delivery complication/emergency surgery set her back many months, she had to start from scratch to rebuild her fitness, while working through postpartum depression, and worrying about her husband’s rare cancer returning. (It hasn't!)
She tried all the tools in her trainer toolbox, but when she didn’t get efficient results, she got creative…until one day something clicked. In fact, it worked so well that not only did she get her strength and career back on track, but she realized her new calling: to focus on helping women feel fit, energetic, and confident after having a baby, AND make sure their results lasted. Her new method, call the Stack-It! Method flips traditional fitness on its head - helping you restore your energy through self-care routines that involve habits other than working out - like baths and rest!
Rose and I worked together as personal trainers years ago, and the minute I found out she was pregnant, I told her she had to come on the show one day. I could not be more excited to share her story with you for our 300th episode!
Listen in to hear Rose share:
- How being the youngest daughter of 9 kids shaped her life
- Her rock bottom postpartum moment she took to Facebook live to share with the world
- How she clawed her way out of postpartum depression and back to the podium
- The impact of childbirth and motherhood on the life of a professional athlete
- Her mindset resets around not reaching her biggest goals in the last year
