In this episode of Chew On This, I sit down with Amy Castano, a fitness entrepreneur who has undergone a profound transformation—both physically and mentally. Amy opens up about her journey from finance to fitness, how she built a successful business with two gym locations, and her personal evolution through health and wellness. We dive deep into her weight training routine, how she overcame the fear of getting "bulky," and why cardio is no longer part of her fitness plan. Amy shares candid advice on balancing business with self-care, the power of discipline, and how she maintains her mental health. Whether you're an aspiring entrepreneur or someone on a health journey, Amy's story is packed with inspiration and actionable insights.
