EPISODE 125 | Personal Trainer, Katie Jensen, Reveals Secret to Coping with Caretaking and Building Strength in Your Family

Human Amplified

Today, we’re talking to guest Katie Jensen, of Franklin, TN. She’s first and foremost a mom and wife, but she’s also a NASM certified personal trainer, nutrition coach, and travel planner. With everything she does, she loves empowering people to find happiness and confidence through healthy lifestyles that feel good.

She’s here today to help us wind up Human Amplified season 5 with ways to incorporate more fun, laughter, and play into your life. Spoiler alert: a lot of this involves how you prioritize, approach, and look at your relationships with other people.

We talk about the importance of laughter and fun, changing what you can while accepting what you can’t, the importance of knowing you’re not alone, giving yourself permission to play, even when life is hard, how to create authentic bonds instead of trauma bonds, processing hard emotions while trying to remain positive, and staying motivated to keep moving forward.

This episode is really about finding the silver linings, purposefully changing your attitude no matter what your situation is, and being resilient.

Katie is not only great at this professionally, but she gets really honest with us about the realities of living with her daughter who was born with a traumatic brain injury and cerebral palsy, among other life-long diagnoses. Katie has five children all together.

So the conversation today comes from the lens of how much Katie loves and dedicates herself to her family and the lessons she’s learned from those experiences that translate into how she approaches happiness, joy, and having fun.

I’m so excited for the perspective-changing tips you’ll get from this episode — and hope that after you’ve listened, you can take life a little less seriously. Just what we need to end the season that has traversed the depths of identity and self realization.

Thanks for listening all season. Thanks for listening today. And, we’ll see you back in the podcast apps soon.

Now, let’s dive in.
