In this episode, we sit down with Daphne to reflect on her first year as a CrossFit coach — the wins, the challenges, and everything in between.

From stepping onto the floor for the first time, learning how to cue with confidence, managing nerves, building connections with athletes, and growing into her coaching voice, Daphne shares what year one really looks like behind the scenes. We talk lessons learned, mistakes made, moments she’s most proud of, and how coaching has shaped her both inside and outside the gym.

Whether you’re an aspiring coach, a seasoned trainer, or an athlete curious about what it takes to lead from the whiteboard, this conversation offers an honest look at growth, community, and finding confidence through coaching.

This week we chat about all things parenting and working out. We also discuss in our banter topic the weird marketing targeted towards medications and fast food over healthy lifestyles. It makes you wonder about the money that is to be made in the unhealthy industries. We then get into the real topic and talk about how to set up your mindset for success when trying to balance many facets of life, like being a parent. The emphasis is that making time for health and wellness should be a non negotiable and is far from a selfish act.
