SHEY WEBB

In this episode, Celeste speaks with Shey Webb, an IFBB Bikini
Pro who is also a certified nutritionist and trainer, mom to her
baby boy, co-owner of her own meal prep café and is also in
remission from Lupus. 

Celeste starts off the episode by asking Shey if she has a ritual
she performs before hitting the stage, to which Shey shares
the songs she uses to get herself into the right mentality
to perform. Shey shares how her training schedule is based around
her duties as a mom, mentioning how breast feeding has impacted
her approach to nutrition during her current prep. Celeste
mentions that Shey chose to start a contest prep shortly after
giving birth and asks her to elaborate on her decision. Shey
discusses the approach she’s taking this time around and while
she does have her sights set on qualifying for the Olympia, she
emphasizes how her priorities have shifted because of her new
responsibilities as a mom. She also shares how she feels less
pressure now as her mentality and focus has shifted as opposed to
her previous preps.


 


Shey talks about mental struggles she faced in the past and how
before she knew she wasn’t mentally ready to be in a prep,
despite her drive to “push through the pain” and follow through
with her commitments. Celeste acknowledges Shey’s strength
through the difficult times, then asks Shey about her mindset
about competing upon receiving her Lupus diagnosis. Next, Celeste
asks Shey what ultimately led her to find bodybuilding and Shey
explains her beginnings, the inspiration she received from a
friend, and how she ended up prepping herself for first show. She
walks listeners through the process of that first prep and how
that took her on the journey to becoming a nutritionist. Shey
explains the relationship with her primary doctor and the process
they took to adjust her diet to help manage her symptoms from
Lupus. Shey was curious to become an advocate for her own health
and used herself as a guinea pig while educating herself.


 


After learning more about Shey’s background into bodybuilding and
how she became a nutritionist, Celeste asks Shey to share more
about her experiences with Lupus. Shey discusses how working with
new doctors and taking new medications gave her a wide variety of
side effects, and because of that Shey found herself dealing with
depression and self isolation, as she didn’t want sympathy from
people because of her condition. After Shey shares her mental
battles during that time, Celeste asks Shey about the nutrition
changes she made to her diet to help combat her symptoms. Shey
also discusses how her relationship with food changed because of
her varying symptoms and she shares how her struggles with
binging led her to find a coach that helped her focus on her
mental health and finding balance in her life. Then, Celeste asks
Shey to talk her progression she made as an athlete once deciding
to hire a coach. Shey shares her tumultuous experience with her
first coach and how she realized they were giving her cookie
cutter plans, and how she ultimately made the decision to take
things into her own hands, turning herself pro, although deciding
to continue check ins with her coach. After reminiscing on her
first coach, Celeste asks Shey about her experiences working with
Jami DeBernard.


 


Next, Celeste transitions the conversation from competing to
Shey’s bout with postpartum depression. Celeste asks Shey how she
found the proper therapist for her and also has Shey share more
about her daily gratitude practices. Afterwards, Shey opens up
and discusses her struggles with comparison to other competitors
because of her battles with Lupus.


 


Moving on, Celeste asks Shey about her meal prep company and
vision to help others. Shey talks about her husbands expertise as
a trainer and how she saw the meal prep company as a way to help
others and teach them how to fuel themselves properly. After
hearing how Shey wants to help others reach their goals, Celeste
asks Shey about her personal mission and goals in both competing
and business. Shey again emphasizes her passion to prove that
healthy food doesn’t have to be bland and boring, and Celeste has
Shey share some of her favorite cooking tips and recipes.
Finally, wrapping up the episode Shey gives her best advice to
novice competitors and the girls on their road to pro.
