Episode 147- Lori Sherlock- Confessions of a Triathlete Jul 17, 2018

Show notes

Lori Sherlock is a triathlete and a professor at West Virginia University in the Exercise Physiology Program. I was fortunate enough to have Lori as a professor for a handful of classes when I attended WVU, and can honestly say she was one of the most impactful teachers that I've ever had. She has transformed the Aquatic Therapy Program at WVU into such an amazing learning experience, and really lives by example. I'm excited for Lori to share her story, all of the amazing work that she is doing at WVU, and her triathlon journey (which includes competing in the Ironman World Championship in Kona 5 times...)

Excited to share our conversation!

Show notes

Anne Therese is co-founder of Role Models Management, an ethical talent and model agency. She is also the host of Hey Change Podcast, and is doing so much positive work. Her modeling experience, which even landed her on the show Project Runway, helped her realize that she wanted to create an agency that would disrupt the way we think about and see the industry. She wanted to give models a chance to work with brands they believe in, and influence brands to hire talent who would be a positive advocate for their brand. And she's doing just that. Her work is extremely inspiring.

Growing up a gymnast, Tara developed an eating disorder at a young age, and had a very unhealthy relationship with food and herself. While searching for a solution that could actually solve the problem, and not just mask what was going on, she discovered a plant-based diet, and dove into all of the amazing research head first. Her story is amazing and she has done a lot of extremely positive work that has helped change so many lives for the better.
