In addition, Carol discusses the impact that athletics and strong mentors like former Olympian, WNBA star and now professional coach, Nancy Lieberman, had on developing her resilient mindset at an early age. Carol, who is not shy about being inspired by STAR TREK’s Captain Kirk and his ability to “boldly go where no one has gone before” has no plans on slowing down. Seeing fitness as “a conduit to spiritual awakenings, unity, diversity, acceptance, tolerance, citizenship,” Carol’s predictions for the future of the fitness industry and her plans to build the Fitness Instructor Guild are unparalleled.

From long trips to and from her specialists, to undergoing various chemo treatments in an attempt to put her disease into remission, Logan was able to remain focused on her schoolwork and even managed to make it to the Cheerleading World Championships three times where she earned an 11th place ranking! Logan is wise beyond her years as she proves while discussing the impact that eating a healthy diet, exercise and a positive mindset has had on her ability to reduce flare-ups and feel good.

Episode 146 - Carolyn Card – Inspiring Owner, TRIDENT FITNESS AND PERFORMANCE in West Creek, New Jersey

“One business at a time, one person at a time, one day at a time.”

“I literally disappeared, but….I will rise so high that I can’t be ignored...I want to be the sun!”

-Carolyn Card

In Episode 146, the Two Fit Crazies are joined by a woman who is determined to “rise so high that she can’t be ignored!” Ms. Carolyn Card, owner of TRIDENT Fitness and Performance in New Jersey, talks about how she was able to overcome both mental and physical pain to rise up and chase her dream to own her own business. While Carolyn still works a full-time corporate job, she discusses the positive impact that failure and hardship has had on her ability to take risks, be uncomfortable, and surround herself with like-minded, driven, and positive people who share similar dreams. Carolyn also provides an amazing outlook on staying focused while chasing her dream to “build an empire in this business” that will have far-reaching effects and leave a positive footprint on the world. If you are ready to “take that leap” and start your own business, Carolyn will surely inspire you to act and lead you to believe that hard work, works!

Enjoy!
