Patrice Washington: What Good is a Fat Bank Account with an Unhealthy Body?

Episode Summary On today's episode, our guest Patrice Washington narrows in on Purpose Driven Self Care by reminding us that 'hitting your goals and reaching certain marks in your life is awesome but running yourself to the ground while at it. . . that is a NO NO'. You can't claim to have a big vision for your life but not be willing to take care of this vessel (your body) that will carry you there.  Patrice shares how she uses fitness as a pillar to build a wealthy life. Make no mistake though, wealth is not about the papers and coins you can accumulate.  Favorite highlights 1.Being physically fit is not about being skinny, it is not being any dress size, it's not the number on the scale because I looked relatively thin most of my life but I had been extremely unhealthy 2.We only get one body. What good is a healthy bank account with an unhealthy body? I’m definitely not working to spend all my  money on prescriptions I cannot pronounce one day. That is not the goal 3.“You’ve gotta make it happen’ “it’s hustle & grind time” “team no sleep” we make this sound sexy, attractive & noble, and it is so detrimental in the bigger scheme of things. It’s not worth it and inevitably when you fall out and unable to work, unable to go go go, then what?
