In today's episode, I sit down with Kamilia Woosley, an IFBB Pro, business owner, and moto mom who opens up about the fast rise to her Pro card and the self-doubt that followed her every step of the way. After starting in 2023, stepping away, and returning in 2025 to win both Open and Novice before earning her Pro card at USAs, Kamilia is now preparing for her Pro debut and sharing the unfiltered reality behind the title. We talk about balancing motherhood, business ownership, ambition, and anxiety while still pushing for more.

This conversation is about chasing big goals while learning to quiet the voice that says you are not enough, and doing it in a way that sets an example for your family.
