Coach Corina Harkelroad on Fitness, Faith, Motherhood and Starting Small

On this episode of Fearless and Focused, Brooke and Casey sit down with Coach Corina Harkelroad, an IFBB fitness pro, wife, and mother of three, for a powerful conversation about fitness, nutrition, breathwork, faith, motherhood, and learning how to start small when life feels overwhelming. Corina shares her journey from telecommunications and finance to cosmetology, then into life as a stay-at-home mom to twins and later a third child. A pivotal moment came when she was diagnosed with pre-diabetes, which pushed her to walk into the YMCA, begin exercising, and eventually fall in love with movement.  Throughout the episode, Corina breaks down beginner wellness basics in a way that feels doable: prioritize sleep, drink enough water, walk regularly, eat balanced whole foods, and include protein with each meal. She also explains how tracking food can create awareness without making health feel overwhelming or impossible. The conversation also dives into breath-work as a tool for stress, anxiety, emotional healing, and reconnecting with yourself. Corina shares how faith is woven into her work, including her popular "worship ride" at the studio and the way she prays for clients as part of her calling to help women feel stronger from the inside out. For women who feel stretched thin by motherhood, work, family, and life, Corina's message is simple but powerful: start small, take care of yourself so you can better serve others, and remember that fearless does not mean never being afraid. As Coach Corina says, "Do It Scared." Learn more about the wellness and nutrition tools discussed in this episode through Standard Nutrition: https://www.standardnutrition.app/#features
