Episode 47: Why Every Experience In Your Life Contributes to Your Evolution with Carolina Araujo! - a podcast by DLDNation

Are you letting events in your past hold you back from thriving now and in the future? Have you grounded yourself in an identity you no longer have and feel frustrated and confused about who you are?

Today, my guest is Carolina Araujo, an IFBB Pro Bikini Athlete (our first bodybuilder on the show), fitness coach, and member of NLCA (shoutout to my beautiful wife Dala and our friend Chad). Not long ago, Carolina played European handball and when that part of her life was over, she still had that athletic identity.

Now, she was able to transition what she learned during those days and apply them to bodybuilding competitions and even her business. Just goes to show that every part of your life plays a role in who you ultimately become.

Carolina and I have a very genuine back and forth discussion on our shared athlete past and how we handle adversity in our lives. My hope is you can use some of these tactics and philosophies in your life as well!
