Great episode with Kate Mackie today, registered nurse and owner of Kate Mackie Wellness. Check her out at https://www.instagram.com/kate.mackie.wellness/ About Kate: I’ve been in the fitness industry since 2011, most of which was spent training clients one on one and in groups at Fusion Fitness Center. I currently train clients one on one at RX Fitness. I have been a registered nurse at a substance abuse clinic since 2015 and have also worked in pediatric home health with special needs children. I am pretty enthusiastic about holistic nursing and completed my board certification as an Integrative Nurse Coach in 2017. A Nurse Coach differs from other health coaching certifications because nurses are trained from day one to look at the whole person regarding the status of their health and wellness along with having extensive medical knowledge. Combining nursing knowledge, intuition, and clinical experiences with coaching strategies will optimize your health and healing potential. Due to the variety in career backgrounds, what I care most about is health promotion and coaching others to be their best self. Seeing clients progress and get stronger both physically and mentally while adopting healthier habits makes my day. I strongly believe that moving properly, getting the right food in your system, getting enough sleep, and finding ways to reduce stress in this busy world are the keys to wellness. My clients inspire me to be better and are the inspiration for some of my posts. For more tips and tricks, follow me on social media. Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kate.mackie.wellness/

Episode 3. Jeff Maguire. Police Sergeant. Librarian. Pen Maker.

https://www.jenniferboileau.com From Jenn's website: Hi, I'm Jenn- a trauma centered yoga and meditation teacher, reiki master, and a sound healing facilitator.  What that means is: I’m deeply committed to helping you find focus, resilience and balance in your life, especially if you're in a high stress profession. I help vets, active duty military & first responders find ease and develop deep resilience within themselves through the trauma focused, specialized practices I'm certified in. All of these practices are non-pharmaceutical solutions, to a deep need for ease in the body. ​As a former special education teacher, and certified Warriors At Ease, iRest Meditation & Accessible Yoga teacher, I believe that yoga is an inclusive experience for anyone and everyone, regardless of age, challenge or dis/ability. I'm a wife to a retired SWAT  S/SGT (20+years of service) and I understand the challenges & stress that come along with being married to someone who selflessly serves the community. I know the culture, the toll it takes on the entire family, and I know methods to help resolve those after effects.  Everyone experiences sensation differently in their bodies. I work with all my students to meet them exactly where they are, guide them through meditation, and explore those sensations on a physical, mental and emotional level for healing. And if you feel like you "can't meditate"? Then we definitely need a session!
