Episode 33: Prioritizing Your Health and Wellness
This week I am joined by Laurie-Anne Batraville. Laurie-Anne is the founder and Head Coach of For Colored Girls Health Well, which was established in 2019. Laurie-Anne is an athlete, an author, a trainer and a published microbiologist. Although the Colored Girls Health Well is a company that welcomes everyone, Laurie-Anne explains that statistics show that Black Women tend to be more affected by heart related diseases and she wanted to provide a safe mental and physical space for Black Women and Women of Color to not only train, but have fun and accountability at the same time. Laurie-Anne walks us through the importance of strength, conditioning and mobility training and inspires us to make it part of our daily routine.
