The Math Wasn’t Mathing
Meet Lauren Provenzano, Vice President of Product Development and Innovation at the American Council on Exercise, for one of the most profound and wide-ranging conversations Fit & Flustered has ever had.
In the span of one year, Lauren navigated a breast cancer diagnosis, a mastectomy, the death of her mother, the loss of her brother in a car accident, two children on the autism spectrum, a pandemic, and a pursuit of her MBA — all while trying to show up for everyone around her.
Then, she discovered blood flow restriction training, fell back in love with movement, lost 23 pounds while gaining muscle, and found her way back to herself. This episode is about grief, resilience, the physiology of coming home to your body, and why your struggle is always the thing you were meant to share.
