Comparison, Validation, Authenticity, & an inspiring perspective on life with Petrina Barber

On today's episode of The Female Fitness Podcast I have the absolute pleasure of being joined by Petrina Barber. Petrina is an incredible human being who has had her fair share of life sh*t thrown her way from cancers to chronic disease. Today I sit down and have the most incredible, inspiring, and thought provoking conversation with her that I know could help change the lives of many. I ask Petrina: - What purpose does training serve for you personally, and what does your training look like? - Has it always looked like this, and has your motivation for training changed throughout your life so far? - Do you think your motives for training have an impact on your relationship with it, and fitness as a whole? - Have you ever struggled with negative comparison, if so when? - Why can comparison be problematic, and do you think there are any situations where it could be helpful? - Do you or have you ever got caught up in chasing validation from others, if so when? - Why do you think this can be problematic? - What changed for you/snapped you out of this if you have? - What is your personal view on toe-ing the line between being authentic on social media but not over sharing, where is that line for you? - You have had your fair share of challenges thrown your way throughout your life, have their been moments where you have felt it’s been unfair or where you have felt like a victim? - How do you deal with this and not let it hold you back? - Do you have any tools or behaviours that you engage in on a regular basis that benefit you from a mindset perspective, or practices for when life throws sh*t at you? and we talk about so much more!
