Fit Friends Happy Hour

Katie Hake and Lauren Wrighton

Come hang out with us as we talk about how we stopped chasing weight loss, started doing what felt right, and found joy in moving rather than obligation, AND how you can too! This podcast starting as another "let's get healthy together" podcast but has transformed into a "lets be great people together" podcast! Your hosts are two besties - Katie and Lauren! Katie is a registered dietitian, personal trainer, and Beachbody master trainer. Lauren is a mom of 2, podcast producer, and group fitness instructor. We'll talk nutrition as it applies to Katie's non-diet approach, self-acceptance, finding joy in fitness, and all around how to be a better human. We promise to keep it real because we definitely aren't perfect ourselves! The Fit Friends Happy Hour will feel like you're with two friends that GET IT and want the best for you. Whether you're driving, running, or pretending to study while you listen, we hope you'll feel inspired! You have two new friends on your side in this crazy life!
