EPI 021 [GUEST TALK] Featuring Alena Luciani: Daily Habits, Sleep, Nutrition, and the Fitness Industry

In today’s episode, I have a well-known Toronto personal training coach Alena Luciani join me to talk allll about her work/life balance! Alena comes forward in today’s episode OPEN and HONEST about the fact that her work/life balance is currently sitting at a 1.5/5… and she’s okay with it! She understands the season of life she’s in right now, but that doesn’t mean she doesn’t still take care of herself with KEY daily habits just for her.

This conversation enthralled both of us and then before we knew it, we had been talking for a WHOLE HOUR! Here are some of the keys from our conversation:


Key Takeaways:

• Importance of daily habits
• The narrative around sleep
• Nutrition is fuel
• Social media in the fitness industry
• Glass balls vs rubber balls
