Your Dreams Are Not Cancelled with Linda Mitchell 02/03/2022

Your Dreams Are Not Cancelled with Linda Mitchell Linda Mitchell is a fitness professional, graduate of the Institute of Integrative Nutrition, award-winning fitness competitor, author, and motivator with a passion for helping women discover the power of the Sisterhood of S.W.E.A.T. (Strong Women Empowering Achieving Together). She holds over a dozen fitness- and nutrition-related certifications and has many decades of experience working in the fitness industry. In total, Linda has helped her clients lose thousands of pounds of unwanted weight, but more importantly, she has also helped those clients feel more confident in their own skin and feel happier with who they are. Linda is passionate about helping her clients be their best selves, both on the inside and the outside. She experienced the amazing transformation that a fit lifestyle can bring firsthand, which is why she goes above and beyond to help her clients find their own transformations. Linda helps her clients achieve their goals through workouts, nutrition, and mindset work to tackle what’s been holding them back from losing weight, getting stronger, and living a healthier and happier lifestyle. Through individual and group work, her clients get the support they need to find new confidence in themselves as they improve their mindsets and shed inches off their bodies. Linda’s love of fitness goes back to her childhood. Her mother suffered from depression and suicidal thoughts, which greatly affected Linda and motivated her to find a way to keep herself happy. As a teenager, she discovered that working out gave her an amazing endorphin rush and really helped improve her mood if she was feeling down. Soon, she was helping her friends get active to help them manage the ups and downs of high school in a healthy way, which eventually led to her career in health and fitness. Her love of fitness has helped Linda get through other difficult times in her life. She experienced a lot of abuse in her first marriage, and in many ways, fitness saved her life. It gave her the confidence she needed to save herself and her children from the physical and emotional abuse of her ex-husband. And, staying active helped her work through the crippling emotional aftermath of that relationship. Fitness gave her the strength she needed to dig out of the dark hole she was in so she could become a more complete version of herself. It opened a doorway so Linda could do a lot of internal self-improvement, and she now teaches those same lessons to her clients. Linda has been an avid fitness and bikini competitor for years. She has placed Top 5 at Fitness America/Fitness Universe seven times in Fitness, Bikini, and Figure. And, she has won seven Ms. Fitness titles. Most recently, Linda received her first invitation to WBFF Worlds and competed at the 2018 Worlds in Las Vegas, NV. Preparing for these competitions has taught Linda a lot about mental strength and willpower, and she uses these lessons to teach her clients how to push through plateaus and meet their goals. And, she hopes that her amazing success as a fitness and bikini competitor in her 50s helps convince other women that age is only a number. You can find Linda on Instagram, Facebook, and hosting the Sisterhood of S.W.E.A.T. podcast. She has also been featured on Fox, ABC, CBS, ESPN, Fox Sports, The Morning Show with Mike and Juliet, several weight loss commercials, and hundreds of podcasts. And, Linda is the author of The Sisterhood of S.W.E.A.T. and the S.W.E.A.T. Project journal, as well as a contributor to Ann Louise Gittleman’s Fat Flush for Life. She’s well-known as an expert in fitness and overcoming obstacles to meet your wellness and weight loss goals. Best Links: /episode/index/show/survivethrive/id/21915914
