  • Episode 98: Dr Celeste
    Dec 18 2024


    Man this person right here is awesome! Today we are talking w/ Dr. Celeste

    Born and raised in New Jersey


    I started out as a track and field athlete and a doctors daughter. The dedication of sport and the consistency required for health and fitness were staples that were the foundations of my upbringing.


    After getting injured as an elite athlete I realized the multifaceted importance of health and wellness I had been taking for granted. Through studying neuroscience and the musculoskeletal system my aim became helping others fall in love with moving their bodies and training their minds.


    Movement is a means of expression to me personally, a journey back to center.


    After over a decade as a coach, trainer, yoga instructor turned doctor it is my passion to be able to help others live well and move often and reach their optimal state of being in mind, body, and spirit and have fun in the process.



    Tune in as we discuss life, goals, values, and interests on this fun epsiode!
