But, also all things positive because I’m a positive guy and we like to keep it fun and friendly.
In this first episode of Harry’s Gym Chat, join me Harry Aikines as we get to know Instagram sensation and women’s fitness advocate Hayley Madigan (@hayleymadiganfitness https://www.instagram.com/hayleymadiganfitness/) as we ask the question could we be unknowingly perpetuating gender inequality in our everyday lives? As a host, I'm inviting you to join us for an episode that unravels this complex question. We are joined by Hayley Madigan, a content creator and champion coach, to delve into the gritty arena of gender politics, fitness, and social media influence.
Imagine stepping foot in a gym at 14, only to discover your passion for weight training. That’s the powerful journey of Hayley Madigan, our guest in this episode. Not only does she share her personal growth through fitness, but she also discusses her transformation into a personal trainer and how she uses her platform to empower women through strength training. From being a pro fitness athlete to navigating Instagram influencing, Hayley sheds light on her transitions and the lessons learnt. She also shares her candid views on body shaming, the importance of supportive gym partners, and her belief in guilt-free indulgence in sugary snacks.
But it's not all about fitness. We venture into hard-hitting discussions on gender inequality and feminism. Through her personal experiences and insights, Haley guides us through the struggles women face daily and the importance of fostering a supportive environment for them. We also delve into the challenges of turning Instagram into a full-time job and the realities of social media influencing on mental health. So, gear up for an episode overflowing with raw conversations, laughter, and inspiring stories. We promise you'll walk away feeling empowered and inspired.
