QUOTES
Louise: "You use it or you lose it. It's so easy to get distracted in life. There's just so much noise, even in human performance. There's so many things to give you data on your body. If you just don't have that inner belief in yourself, that relentless confidence that you can master and own when you need it, you're not gonna go anywhere fast."
Louise: "It starts with shifting your mind. Because it's as you said, if your body remains in that fight or flight state, and you've got those stress chemicals and hormones, it is the absolute opposite of a badass state. We are going to be unproductive, our body is fighting against us. We can't lose weight if we want to, we can't gain muscle if we want to."
Louise: "Our body has to move during the day, that's the bottom line. It doesn't have to be really complicated. It can be standing after you eat at a desk if you don't have time to go for a walk. Get up and do a couple burpees in between when you're working on a big project that you have to sit there."
