Summary

In today's episode, I sit down with IFBB Pro Taylor Crowell, an online coach, and all-around bodybuilding lover. She has spent the last several years learning, growing, and evolving through every phase of this sport — from the stage to the off-season and everything in between. Her mission is to help others experience that same kind of growth—physically, mentally, and emotionally. She is all about finding the balance between the grit and the glam, showing up with intention, and leading from the front as both an athlete and a coach. TOPICS COVERED -low placings do not dictate your future -developing grit -building relationships -goals for the off season -losing more than you win -imposter syndrome -have fun -focus on longevity CONNECT WITH CELESTE: Website: http://www.celestial.fit Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/celestial_fit/ All Links: http://www.celestial.fit/links.html CONNECT WITH TAYLOR: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tcrowellfit/ TIME STAMPS 1:00 introduction 4:40 getting engaged 8:17 being a competitive dancer 13:26 handling injuries 18:40 developing character 24:30 having a support system 30:19 dealing with low placings 35:48 building in the off season 46:00 it takes time 52:00 sharing the journey 57:17 thrill of the chase 64:44 making it to the Olympia 82:30 what's next for coaching 89:18 advice for competitors
