Anyone who’s ever competed in bikini or fit model knows this truth: it’s not always about how hard you work. Sometimes you bring your best package and you still don’t place where you hoped.

It tests us, not just as athletes, but as people.   Follow us on IG @preplifepodcast @glamgirlbikini @amyehinger @leemarie183   Watch on YouTube: Glam Girl Bikini   Join the team: https://www.glamgirlbikini.com/get-started/    1st Phorm Supplements we use: https://1stphorm.com/?a_aid=glamgirlbikini
