I’m takin' you BTS of the Warrior Queen Olympics – a 10-week challenge where warriors train like athletes in their chosen sport. I also had guest expert Dr. Stacy Sims join Warrior School to share her insights on the importance of being 'selfishly' committed to one's training and the concept of taking up space. I talk about the three biggest challenges you'll face when it comes to your training including managing your energy, and mindset and committing to the long-term process of building a strong foundation.

Key Topics:

• The launch of the Warrior Queen Olympics and what’s to come over the next 10 weeks.
• Testing week: Why trying new lifts and movements can be both humbling and incredibly empowering.
• Dr. Stacy Sims’ insights on training, eating, and recovering like an athlete, particularly for women in their 30s and 40s.
• The importance of being selfish with your time and energy as an athlete, and taking up space in every aspect of your life.
• My reflections on Steven Pressfield's concept of "The Resistance" and the journey of the athlete.
• The three critical questions every warrior must ask: How much do you love it? How much do you want it? And how much are you willing to give?
• Why falling in love with the process and cultivating joy in training is crucial for long-term success.
• The three biggest challenges you’ll face when it comes to your training
