NICOLE ENGMAN

In this episode, Host Celeste Rains-Turk, connects with Nicole
Engman, a 35 year old administrative assistant for career
and technical education for Alpine school district who is married
to a professional bodybuilder, mom to two boys, and who went pro
at her 19th competition.

Tune in to hear how Nicole and her husband overcame many
challenges from losing her brother to addiction to grieving other
family members and pets. Nicole vulnerably shares her perspective
on addiction and those who suffer.

Nicole shares how she has been able to fall in love with
bodybuilding, how she got into lifting, what she did to build so
much muscle, and how she has been able to avoid
burnout. 

She also talks about how she was able to begin embracing her body
after having two 10lb babies that left her with stretch marks all
over her body. Nicole talks about getting a tummy tuck, looking
past the scars, and putting a bikini on for the first
time. 

Nicole talks about what it is like to be married to a
professional bodybuilder, how their kids feel about the sport,
and what kind of judgement she has moved through from others by
going within and looking at her own judgement.
