Episode 151 - Health is Wealth with Alexis Robertson

Today in the studio, we have Alexis Robertson, Director of Diversity and Inclusion at a large law firm and a recovering lawyer.  Alexis kicks in with a bit about herself, and shares “I am director of diversity inclusion at a large law firm but spent the first 10 years or so of my career dedicated to laws, going to law school and practicing as a lawyer for about seven and a half years before leaving legal practice closing in on six years ago, I grew up in the suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, spent most of my life in the Midwest, except for time spent in DC at American University for undergrad and then I went to the University of Michigan for law school. That's me in a nutshell.” Alexis shares throughout this episode how her health, exercise and food habits all became habit with some very big changes.  It isn’t about getting healthy; it is about a long journey of being healthy.  You will hear a little bit about her food choices and why she made them, the exercises she partakes in, and how she balances it all.     Key Takeaways:   1:27 Welcome 2:23 Alexis shares her background 3:25 Serendipity 5:33 Self-improvement journey 12:41 Healthy mentality with food 17:20 Next steps 21:12 Getting back on track 24:07 Fitness journey 28:16 Looking forward 31:13 Advice to others 33:17 Staying in touch with Alexis   Alexis on LinkedIn Alexis on Instagram The Path & The Practice Podcast Support Hacker Valley Studio on Patreon.  Follow Hacker Valley Studio on Twitter.
