Can Exercise Ever Feel Like A Reward? Ft. Kelsey Wells

This week Sami and Aleen are joined by fitness influencer and DST favorite Kelsey Wells. They start with a conversation about being grateful in a pandemic, the way repetitive routine leads to anxiety, and how Kelsey has used fitness as a form of reward. They discuss the mental shift to treating exercise as a tool for self-empowerment and gratitude toward your body. Kelsey shares three steps for changing your mindset toward exercise, including how to be proud of yourself for what you’ve accomplished. They discuss the way disordered eating is tied to self-worth and why that type of thinking won’t serve you. Finally, they close the show with a visit from the Internal Refrigerator Service as Kelsey tells us what’s in her kitchen (spoiler: her pantry contains pickles, pickles, and more pickles).
