#31 Sharelle Grant WBFF Bikini Pro: hormonal health & periods, weight gain mentality, importance of authenticity on social media

This week’s guest is the awesome Sharelle Grant who is a WBFF Bikini pro, women’s fitness coach and co-host of the Level Up Podcast.

I have been following Sharelle for a few years on social media now and just love how authentic and informative she is on social media – so I known for a long time that I had to chat to her on the show!

Sharelle is intensely passionate about women’s health and this shines through in everything she posts on social, her work with her clients and the topics we discussed here. I learned a heap and I know you will too!

We chatted about:

• COVID ruining competing plans (as is the theme for 2020)
• Bikini to wellness
• Sharelle’s competing journey and turning pro
• Finding her federation
• Mistakes along the way - training/nutrition
• Can you compete for the experience?
• Why she became a women’s fitness coach
• Seeing the gap between health & fitness
• Importance of hormonal health and understanding our menstrual cycle
• Your period is your 5th vital sign and the importance of tracking  and training around it
• Intentional weight gain and how to manage it mentally
• Balancing demanding work/shift work
• The importance of sleeeeep and sleep hygiene
•  Why Sharelle is #morethanfitspo and the importance of being authentic on social media
• Why you should listen to The Level Up Podcast with Sharelle and Dani!

And so much more!
