Episode 277 - Jonathan McLernon “Coach Jon” - Freedom Nutrition and Fitness Coach/Creator of Lifestyle 180/Host of “Between the Before and After” Podcast 

“We need to change according to the way our brains work.”

“If you make a list of all the things you love and value, how far down the list are you?”

“I am an empathetic engineer…a tour guide, not a sherpa…I want to help you move past your problems…”

In today’s episode of the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast, we guarantee that Jonathan McLernon, AKA “Coach Jon,” will entertain, educate, and inspire you to move past your problems and change “your story.” That’s right! Listen up as Jon shares how his life led him from Nanotechnology Researcher at the University of Victoria, to a Marine Engineer for the Canadian NAVY, a globetrotting English teacher, a nutrition and supplement store owner, and finally a successful “brain-driven weight loss” coach and podcaster. Jon is on a mission to “give people hope,” and as a self-proclaimed, “empathic engineer,” he is constantly trying to understand the “human experience” to better care for both himself and his clients. So, grab a pen and paper and take notes while Jon reveals some of the best kept secrets to enacting lasting change through compassion and unconscious behavior awareness or reach out to him at www.jonmclernon.com

Chrissy Horan - Freelance Writer and Running Enthusiast - Episode 275

Episode 275 - Chrissy Horan - Freelance Writer and Running Enthusiast 

“For me, running became a kind of game…I ran to the next bridge….then the next…” “My favorite part of the Boston Marathon…it sends the tingle up your spine.” 

“...I first started writing a blog…but I love writing human interest stories…” Chrissy Horan  

 

In today’s episode of the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast, let’s welcome running enthusiast and freelance writer, Chrissy Horan. Chrissy, a Long Island native, who also happens to be Christine’s childhood volleyball teammate, is here to share how her unexpected love for running led her to become an experienced marathon runner, volunteer, fundraiser and freelance writer. Chrissy, a former obesity researcher, claims to have always “dreaded running” until she moved to Boston in 2000 and began running along the historic Charles River. For Chrissy, her competitive nature enabled her to turn her running into “a kind of game,” running just a little farther each run. Fast forward, Chrissy Horan has established herself as a runner who not only takes pride in raising funds and awareness for charities such as the Alzheimer’s Association, but also writing about current research and human interest stories related to the sport. Chrissy’s articles have been featured in Runner’s World, the Boston Globe, Women’s Running and Boston.com. In fact, she even wrote an amazing evidence-based article shedding light on the benefits of running to fight Rheumatoid Arthritis that featured a cameo by one of the “Fit

Crazies.” Learn more about Chrissy Horan and read her latest blogs and articles at www.ChrissyHoran.com.

“Without People, You’re Nothing.”

“The way you get to a better world is, you don’t put up with substandard anything.”

-Joe Strummer

                          

Happy Summer! In this long-awaited episode, Christine and Brian FINALLY reconnect to shed some light on their latest projects and antics. Tune in to hear Christine dish out what’s new with Let’s FACE It Together™, FallPROOF™, arthritis fitness, eating disorder courses, and of course, the book that drops in January 2021. More details to come about SPLIT-SECOND COURAGE in the next few months! Next up, Brian wins the “MOST AWESOME HUMAN AWARD” as he shares his experience watching his two youngest sons win a baseball championship, offers his time to coach youth running clinics, and fixes bike tires for neighborhood kids. If that does not warm your heart, listen up as Brian reveals how he practically founded the Joe Strummer Foundation Runners with a simple email. And yes, we are talking about “the” Joe Strummer from the CLASH who will forever live on through his music and the meaningful work of his foundation. If you are a runner, or even if you are not, listen closely to hear about this amazing foundation and how to get involved! Take it from Joe Strummer, “people can change anything they want to, and that means everything in the world.”

Episode 228 - Jennifer Blackburn - Master Trainer with MOXIE

“MOXIE has built everything…they have flipped the script…be confident…grow your brand and bring it to the platform. This is your house…program, coaching, and following up!” - Jenn Blackburn

 

Get ready for another awesome guest today on The Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast. Let’s welcome MOXIE master trainer, Jenn Blackburn, to the show who is joining us from her home in DC. Sit back as Jenn reveals how her resilient spirit and ability to overcome game changing obstacles lead her to team up with a new platform called MOXIE, a name that means “fighting spirit.” As Jenn discusses, MOXIE is not your average run of the mill fitness platform. If you are a fitness professional looking to grow your brand without a brick and mortar, or you do not have the funds or the knowhow to build your own website and take care of the backend of running a business, your prayers have been answered! And, if you love to take group fitness classes and looking to join virtual groups taught by some of the most experienced and well-known fit pros in the world, you are in luck. Jenn also sheds light on the “why” behind MOXIE and what makes this platform outshine the rest! MOXIE is designed to be a wellness community “to bring people together, empower its participants and instructors, and allow fitness professionals to thrive and earn a good living.” Check out MOXIE at www.moxie.xyz and see for yourself!
