Ep 15 - Rebuilding Life through Fitness with Catherine Yoon
Catherine grew up on a farm in Colorado and trained from a young age to become an opera singer. After college Catherine made her way to Los Angeles working in the fashion industry as a model where her path ultimately led her to a television career working in game shows, talk shows, and reality t.v as a project manager for digitizing their workflow. She then found the love of her life and got married, living what many would see as having a successful career and personal life. Life took an interesting turn when she was diagnosed with a rare brain tumor in the center of her brain. Trusting her intuition led to many events that led to overcoming the brain tumor but no one was expecting the reality of life after surviving the surgery. A difficult recovery physically and emotionally led to the end of what prior seemed to be a perfect marriage. Living in heartbreak and in medical debt, Catherine decided it was time to get control back in her life and began her fitness journey. By trusting her intuition and taking risks, Catherine went through a transformation that led to becoming a nationally qualified bikini bodybuilder, owning her own personal training business, and traveling the world as a flight attendant. Catherine has now made it her mission to use fitness and mindset tools to help others overcome their life's obstacles.
