16
00:02:23.240 --> 00:02:27.089
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: it took. I'm gonna take y'all back to 2022,

17
00:02:28.670 --> 00:02:31.260
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I was flying home

18
00:02:31.810 --> 00:02:33.219
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: from Florida.

19
00:02:33.660 --> 00:02:35.010
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and

20
00:02:36.120 --> 00:02:39.209
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I pretty much had, and enough was enough

21
00:02:39.490 --> 00:02:41.479
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: when I would stand in line

22
00:02:41.620 --> 00:02:43.630
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: waiting to get on the airplane

23
00:02:44.470 --> 00:02:46.249
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: sweating in my palms.

24
00:02:47.250 --> 00:02:52.789
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I was having to write. I had a little posty note, and I would write on there.

25
00:02:53.310 --> 00:02:55.879
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I need an extension for my seatbelt.

26
00:02:56.150 --> 00:02:58.590
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: because I was too embarrassed

27
00:02:58.860 --> 00:03:00.449
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: to say it out loud.

28
00:03:01.040 --> 00:03:02.790
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I would pay extra

29
00:03:02.960 --> 00:03:06.159
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: money to get on the to get on the plane first, st

30
00:03:07.720 --> 00:03:14.459
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and at that time I was like Kathy. Enough is enough. Why put yourself through that

31
00:03:14.840 --> 00:03:16.690
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: you can change this.

32
00:03:17.700 --> 00:03:20.410
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: And so, as I was flying back.

33
00:03:21.720 --> 00:03:23.799
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: that was in

34
00:03:24.500 --> 00:03:27.229
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: January of 2022,

35
00:03:27.740 --> 00:03:32.410
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I was thinking, I I got to do something, not only

36
00:03:33.344 --> 00:03:37.990
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: for my, you know, not only for my health, but

37
00:03:38.120 --> 00:03:39.590
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: for my family.

38
00:03:39.870 --> 00:03:41.829
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: You know I love kids.

39
00:03:42.310 --> 00:03:58.330
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I want to be there for my grandkids. I want to do things with them I want, and I want to do things individually. There are so many things that I the last 1015 years I couldn't do, and I like to. I'm an adventure person.

40
00:03:58.600 --> 00:04:04.920
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I like to do those things, but I couldn't because of my weight. I was letting my weight control

41
00:04:05.090 --> 00:04:06.280
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: my life

42
00:04:07.200 --> 00:04:08.160
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and

43
00:04:09.420 --> 00:04:13.350
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: So I got back, and my daughter London called me.

44
00:04:13.600 --> 00:04:17.029
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and she said, Mom, coach Harvey is back in town.

45
00:04:17.810 --> 00:04:34.360
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I was, and he was. I've worked with him before as group training stuff, and she goes. He's back in town, and I said, Where is he? And she told me where he was working at, and so I immediately

46
00:04:35.042 --> 00:04:38.869
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: got in touch with him, but I waited 2 months.

47
00:04:39.620 --> 00:04:46.569
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: so I met him in April. It was like April the 10th of 2022,

48
00:04:47.250 --> 00:04:51.400
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I met with him at the gym.

49
00:04:51.770 --> 00:04:57.009
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I told him. You know I was was ready to do something.

50
00:04:58.210 --> 00:05:00.250
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: So we came up with a plan.

51
00:05:01.490 --> 00:05:02.940
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and

52
00:05:03.500 --> 00:05:07.670
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I've never really invested in myself like that.

53
00:05:07.710 --> 00:05:09.370
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: because you feel like

54
00:05:09.570 --> 00:05:12.860
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: Oh, my goodness, I could be putting this towards something else

55
00:05:13.030 --> 00:05:15.250
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: than paying a personal trainer

56
00:05:15.770 --> 00:05:21.059
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: to help you, and I remember, and it seems like it was just yesterday

57
00:05:21.370 --> 00:05:26.200
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: pressing that Venmo button to send them. The 1st payment was the hardest thing.

58
00:05:26.790 --> 00:05:27.990
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: but I did it.

59
00:05:29.300 --> 00:05:35.979
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I've been with him since April the 24th of 2022,

60
00:05:37.460 --> 00:05:38.710
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and

61
00:05:39.110 --> 00:05:41.170
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: things have just

62
00:05:41.420 --> 00:05:43.000
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: exploded.

63
00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:48.440
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and my 1st day walking in there.

64
00:05:49.000 --> 00:05:53.819
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I walked in there, and I was like, just tell me what I'm gonna do.

65
00:05:53.870 --> 00:05:58.720
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: Just tell me, tell me what's next. And still, to this day when I was working out this morning, I was like.

66
00:05:59.360 --> 00:06:01.699
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: What's next? What's next?

67
00:06:01.800 --> 00:06:05.779
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: And and so I have

68
00:06:05.940 --> 00:06:07.989
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: completed 2, 10 ks.

69
00:06:09.090 --> 00:06:10.609
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: During this time

70
00:06:10.810 --> 00:06:15.170
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I have completed 5 ks.

71
00:06:15.980 --> 00:06:18.420
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: but lifting weights.

72
00:06:18.600 --> 00:06:21.159
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I'm doing things that

73
00:06:21.600 --> 00:06:23.549
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I can't believe I can do.

74
00:06:24.070 --> 00:06:29.009
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and he's guiding me. But I'm doing it. I'm putting in the work.

75
00:06:29.360 --> 00:06:32.189
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I call it my safe place. Now

76
00:06:33.070 --> 00:06:42.620
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: it's it's truly amazing, and I am so glad that I started it because I'm addicted.

77
00:06:43.250 --> 00:06:44.480
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I'm addicted.

78
00:06:44.660 --> 00:06:46.540
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: He is a student.

79
00:06:47.217 --> 00:06:51.750
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: So he has. So he goes to classes in Houston, Texas. But

80
00:06:52.290 --> 00:06:55.560
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: so this semester has really been a test for me.

81
00:06:56.200 --> 00:06:59.830
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: because he has to train me at 4 30 in the morning.

82
00:07:00.680 --> 00:07:10.350
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and so I get up at 3 Am. Because I have a morning schedule that I do before I go to work out.

83
00:07:11.170 --> 00:07:14.869
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: And so that's kind of where I started. And

84
00:07:16.700 --> 00:07:20.219
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I just I just want to say, anyone out there

85
00:07:21.030 --> 00:07:22.809
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: that wants to start.

86
00:07:23.250 --> 00:07:31.609
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I don't care where you are in life. I don't care if you're 40, 50, 60 years old, because you're only in number. Age is a number.

87
00:07:31.950 --> 00:07:33.800
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and if you want to do it.

88
00:07:34.190 --> 00:07:35.539
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: You need to do it.

89
00:07:35.970 --> 00:07:36.990
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and

90
00:07:37.250 --> 00:07:38.599
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and don't look back

91
00:07:39.050 --> 00:07:40.540
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: because I never look back.

92
00:07:40.730 --> 00:07:43.209
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: Every day is a new day.

93
00:07:43.660 --> 00:07:44.490
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: so.

94
00:07:44.660 --> 00:07:55.800
Angie Leitnaker: Oh, it's so inspiring, so inspiring, Kathy. I literally, every time you tell me the story we've spoken on many occasions I get goosebumps every time. It's just.

95
00:07:56.260 --> 00:07:57.549
Angie Leitnaker: It's so.

96
00:07:57.670 --> 00:08:01.299
Angie Leitnaker: There's so many reasons it's very inspiring.

97
00:08:01.620 --> 00:08:03.230
Angie Leitnaker: One of them is

98
00:08:03.640 --> 00:08:18.210
Angie Leitnaker: that a lot of us have this inner dialogue, this inner narrative. That's I'm too fill in the blank. Right? I'm too young. I'm too old. I'm too far off. I am too like we have these stories.

99
00:08:19.460 --> 00:08:23.970
Angie Leitnaker: and what I love is. It's really like the 4 min mile like you are evidence

100
00:08:24.010 --> 00:08:40.159
Angie Leitnaker: that, like it doesn't matter. You make a decision, and then your life can drastically change like it doesn't matter if you've lived this way for 40 years of your entire life up until this point 50 years of your entire life like it doesn't matter.

101
00:08:40.490 --> 00:08:56.919
Angie Leitnaker: You draw the line in the sand, and then the trajectory gets to change from this point forward, and I think one of the things I'd love to talk to you about here in particular, is about identity and self image, and how that makes

102
00:08:57.160 --> 00:09:01.920
Angie Leitnaker: such a difference. You and I have talked about even Kathleen Cameron's work about.

103
00:09:02.170 --> 00:09:08.390
Angie Leitnaker: you know, not being a woman trying to lose weight, the identity of a woman trying to lose weight, but

104
00:09:08.410 --> 00:09:14.379
Angie Leitnaker: the identity of a woman who is healthy. Can you share with us a little bit about how that changed the game for you?

105
00:09:14.380 --> 00:09:15.660
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: Sure, sure.

106
00:09:15.770 --> 00:09:16.990
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: So

107
00:09:17.040 --> 00:09:22.230
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I'm a big fan of Kathleen Cameron's. Podcast. I listen to him. All the time

108
00:09:22.590 --> 00:09:27.019
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and one thing that she said back in 2022,

109
00:09:27.860 --> 00:09:29.880
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: or it might have been 2023,

110
00:09:30.110 --> 00:09:30.800
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and

111
00:09:31.560 --> 00:09:32.640
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: was.

112
00:09:32.980 --> 00:09:35.770
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: you are healthy. God

113
00:09:36.100 --> 00:09:39.270
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: does not create people that's not healthy.

114
00:09:40.220 --> 00:09:46.059
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: So your goal is to become healthier, to become a better version of yourself.

115
00:09:48.660 --> 00:09:50.910
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: And after she said that

116
00:09:51.080 --> 00:09:56.940
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: it's just something just went on in my mind. It's like the light bulb went off.

117
00:09:57.300 --> 00:10:02.629
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: And I'm like, you're right, Kathy. You are healthy. You just want to become healthier.

118
00:10:03.130 --> 00:10:04.160
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and

119
00:10:04.440 --> 00:10:06.740
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: you have to love yourself

120
00:10:06.910 --> 00:10:08.630
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: from where you're starting.

121
00:10:10.000 --> 00:10:11.530
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and if you

122
00:10:11.560 --> 00:10:14.440
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: fill your cup up with that.

123
00:10:15.740 --> 00:10:17.270
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: that love

124
00:10:17.960 --> 00:10:20.820
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and that self talk.

125
00:10:22.400 --> 00:10:24.389
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: you can become anything.

126
00:10:24.410 --> 00:10:37.010
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: And every morning this is one of my practices that I write every morning before I go to work out. I am so thankful and grateful now that in every way and every day.

127
00:10:37.130 --> 00:10:41.009
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I am a healthier version of myself

128
00:10:41.250 --> 00:10:43.430
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: that's becoming stronger

129
00:10:44.850 --> 00:10:46.759
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: each and every day.

130
00:10:48.090 --> 00:10:50.809
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I write that every single day.

131
00:10:51.820 --> 00:10:59.270
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: because we are all healthy. We just want to become healthier, and it's, you know, great. It's great about the scale moving.

132
00:10:59.370 --> 00:11:06.130
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: But it's about learning about yourself. I have learned so much in the last 2 years about myself

133
00:11:06.150 --> 00:11:08.679
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and about my body.

134
00:11:08.780 --> 00:11:14.510
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: that if I would have never jumped on this journey I probably would have never had learned it.

135
00:11:15.010 --> 00:11:20.530
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: And just think of what you can do once you say yes.

136
00:11:20.700 --> 00:11:22.389
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and you're consistent

137
00:11:23.030 --> 00:11:25.670
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and the type of self-talk you tell yourself

138
00:11:26.150 --> 00:11:34.249
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: of where you can be in 6, 7, 8, 9, 12 months. I'm going on 2 years. So it's amazing.

139
00:11:35.170 --> 00:11:39.360
Angie Leitnaker: So awesome, you know. I it seems so

140
00:11:39.430 --> 00:11:45.390
Angie Leitnaker: simple and so subtle about identity, self concept, self image.

141
00:11:45.520 --> 00:12:11.890
Angie Leitnaker: But when you start to think of it like that. How much of how much of our life we attempt to change from a place of discord? Right? It's like, I don't like my body. I need to change it. I don't like my job. I need to change it. I don't like this. And so it's like we're always swimming upstream. We like enter resistance into it because it's like, if we're the identity of someone who doesn't have it or isn't it?

142
00:12:11.940 --> 00:12:35.150
Angie Leitnaker: It's like we're always like struggling, striving to get there to get. I'm quotation marking there, whereas I love this creation from wholeness. It's like you're already healthy. It's just stepping more and more into that, and it it like unkinks the hose if you will, it takes the resistance out of it. So it's like you're operating from an already healthy woman

143
00:12:35.220 --> 00:13:04.689
Angie Leitnaker: versus operating from a woman who is unhealthy, like those 2 subtle changes are so different and so like. I see you on social media as such, a healthy woman, and I see you on social media with your gym every day getting healthier and stronger. It's like you've you created that identity internally, and that's what the world sees from the external. But it was 1st created inside. So you're such an inspiration.

144
00:13:04.690 --> 00:13:06.420
Angie Leitnaker: Kathy.

145
00:13:06.700 --> 00:13:09.229
Angie Leitnaker: now, can we talk a little bit about.

146
00:13:09.830 --> 00:13:25.270
Angie Leitnaker: I know you said you've you've talked to other women worked with other women who have some fears and frustrations in their forties. Can we talk about some of those fears and frustrations, maybe, that you've you had personally, or ones that you've seen for other women.

147
00:13:26.130 --> 00:13:30.429
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: Well, I always thought that I wasn't good enough, or I didn't deserve

148
00:13:30.780 --> 00:13:35.060
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: to have that type of body, or I wasn't this, and I wasn't that.

149
00:13:35.860 --> 00:13:38.339
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and we're all the same.

150
00:13:38.920 --> 00:13:41.039
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: we all deserve it.

151
00:13:41.760 --> 00:13:44.339
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: And once

152
00:13:44.970 --> 00:13:48.200
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I recognize that.

153
00:13:48.220 --> 00:13:50.239
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and once I

154
00:13:50.450 --> 00:13:52.440
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: instilled that in my mind

155
00:13:53.220 --> 00:13:54.800
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: because it's, you know.

156
00:13:54.870 --> 00:13:56.930
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: 99%. It's mindset.

157
00:13:57.080 --> 00:14:01.250
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: It's all mindset, you know, even when you're lifting weights.

158
00:14:01.960 --> 00:14:03.760
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: it's all mindset.

159
00:14:04.240 --> 00:14:09.019
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: And one thing I just I want to share is that I was reading, and it said

160
00:14:09.100 --> 00:14:14.759
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: the best thing to do when you're lifting weights, and you're trying to hit a new

161
00:14:14.980 --> 00:14:16.270
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: Pr

162
00:14:17.170 --> 00:14:18.500
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: smile

163
00:14:19.420 --> 00:14:26.000
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and just smile when you're on there laying on when you're doing a bench press and just smile at the ceiling.

164
00:14:26.300 --> 00:14:48.399
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: because you're putting that type of energy back in your body, and you're holding your arms up. And you're just, gonna you know, push it up. And so I just. And it's so funny because it is. Don't have an angry or like struggling face smile while you're doing it, because you're filling up with that positive energy. And I am so big on

165
00:14:48.790 --> 00:14:51.689
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: the type of energy that I allow in my life.

166
00:14:52.360 --> 00:14:52.790
Angie Leitnaker: Yep.

167
00:14:52.790 --> 00:14:56.340
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: And and so but

168
00:14:56.350 --> 00:15:02.569
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: some of the frustrations is, you know, we're scared, you know. Here I am, 55 years old.

169
00:15:04.340 --> 00:15:06.010
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I was overweight.

170
00:15:06.880 --> 00:15:18.239
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I still am. I still have. I still have close to 60 more pounds to release. But you know what it's going to happen. I know it is. It's not even a but or anything. It's it's coming.

171
00:15:18.410 --> 00:15:26.789
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: But I have to be patient, and that's a lot of people start this because I started this from scratch. I did not take

172
00:15:26.880 --> 00:15:34.150
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: the shot. I didn't take supplements for it. I wanted to do it real and raw way, eating

173
00:15:34.410 --> 00:15:37.899
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: protein carbs and the right amount of fat

174
00:15:39.770 --> 00:15:45.899
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and counting my macros. I wanted to do it that way because I wanted it to stay off.

175
00:15:46.610 --> 00:15:47.660
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: So

176
00:15:48.170 --> 00:15:52.969
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: the 1st month it's not gonna come off, because look how long it took for it to come on.

177
00:15:53.070 --> 00:16:00.759
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: So it's not going to come off. And we as humans. And that's just a nature of us. We get frustrated.

178
00:16:00.820 --> 00:16:03.090
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: So this has taught me patience.

179
00:16:03.620 --> 00:16:07.869
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: It has taught me to be patient and to keep going.

180
00:16:08.230 --> 00:16:10.849
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and don't look at

181
00:16:11.550 --> 00:16:13.810
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: where I'm at. Look where I'm going.

182
00:16:14.680 --> 00:16:20.449
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and that's what I I encourage that, and tell other women that just start.

183
00:16:21.180 --> 00:16:26.780
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: If you can't go and do a personal trainer, just start walk 15 min a day.

184
00:16:27.420 --> 00:16:36.880
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I, you know, in between sitting down, I go to the hallway, and I hold on to the doorway, and I do 30 squats.

185
00:16:37.760 --> 00:16:51.140
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I walk, you know, or something like that in the house. But just get up and do it because working out is the cheapest thing to do. Walking does not cost you any money around your neighborhood.

186
00:16:51.290 --> 00:16:53.700
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: So just start. That's the main thing.

187
00:16:53.890 --> 00:16:56.930
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and and don't look back. And

188
00:16:57.530 --> 00:17:01.849
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: it's so funny because they're like, Well, how do you eat the right stuff all the time?

189
00:17:02.020 --> 00:17:04.920
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: Well, now, my body craves that

190
00:17:05.400 --> 00:17:10.920
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: my body craves protein. My body craves vegetables.

191
00:17:11.200 --> 00:17:18.520
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: Now I'm on a the last 21 weeks I'm on a new journey where I am fasting.

192
00:17:19.010 --> 00:17:25.380
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and Saturday tomorrow is going to be 21 weeks that I have not had sugar.

193
00:17:26.190 --> 00:17:29.839
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I've been focusing on my protein

194
00:17:30.160 --> 00:17:33.420
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and my vegetables and fats.

195
00:17:33.520 --> 00:17:37.600
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I do have blackberries, which has natural sugar.

196
00:17:37.750 --> 00:17:39.990
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: but I don't have that.

197
00:17:40.490 --> 00:17:48.379
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: And sitting behind me, you know, with a daycare in my home we're getting ready for Halloween, and I have chocolate behind me.

198
00:17:48.470 --> 00:17:49.990
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I don't crave that.

199
00:17:50.610 --> 00:17:53.800
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I don't want it, and it's just

200
00:17:55.010 --> 00:18:00.309
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: it's truly amazing when you listen to your body, because your body can heal itself.

201
00:18:01.000 --> 00:18:06.869
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and that's exactly what my body is doing right now. I'm healing from the inside and out.

202
00:18:07.120 --> 00:18:08.789
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I feel

203
00:18:09.070 --> 00:18:10.160
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: the best.

204
00:18:11.340 --> 00:18:12.950
Angie Leitnaker: Incredible.

205
00:18:13.520 --> 00:18:19.790
Angie Leitnaker: Oh, my goodness! Your health journey is so inspiring, and I I hope that people can hear that in this, of

206
00:18:19.820 --> 00:18:20.860
Angie Leitnaker: how

207
00:18:21.090 --> 00:18:32.080
Angie Leitnaker: much like everything can shift. You know. It's like your mind, your body, your spirit, your identity, your everything like everything, is different, you know, whereas

208
00:18:32.260 --> 00:18:58.499
Angie Leitnaker: people we we tend to buy into paradigms like, Oh, I'm somebody who only loves sugar, or I've always been this way. I eat this way. This is just how I am, or I'm lazy, like we just. We buy all of these lies, and we we take them on as as our truth. But I love how you're such a great representation of it does not matter if those were your stories before.

209
00:18:58.530 --> 00:19:10.599
Angie Leitnaker: I have Halloween chocolate behind me, and I don't crave it because my body loves protein and vegetables and to feel nourished. So it's like, it's just so inspiring because I think.

210
00:19:10.940 --> 00:19:13.879
Angie Leitnaker: growing up, many of us thought that we are our thoughts.

211
00:19:14.050 --> 00:19:24.449
Angie Leitnaker: or we didn't know how to separate ourselves from the the beliefs that we bought into the programming, the conditioning that we bought into. And you're just such great evidence that it's like.

212
00:19:24.630 --> 00:19:30.419
Angie Leitnaker: that's fiction that's false at any point in time, under new management you can change

213
00:19:30.600 --> 00:19:32.610
Angie Leitnaker: any of that, so

214
00:19:33.150 --> 00:19:34.560
Angie Leitnaker: that another big, so

215
00:19:34.610 --> 00:19:50.629
Angie Leitnaker: health and fitness has become a big part of your identity, and I also know entrepreneurship is a big part of your identity as well. So can you share with us a little bit about? You know your journey in entrepreneurship also? What inspired you to

216
00:19:51.145 --> 00:20:06.919
Angie Leitnaker: look into the network marketing profession? Some of your experience with that, because I know we've had a lot of people on here who are like Nope, not network marketing for me. I had a bad experience, but I love your story because I think it's also very relatable.

217
00:20:07.910 --> 00:20:16.119
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: Well, it all goes back to when I was 15, I guess a freshman, I mean, yeah. Freshman in high school.

218
00:20:17.033 --> 00:20:19.999
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: My dad was a very hard worker.

219
00:20:20.410 --> 00:20:25.150
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I lost him at a very young age of 56

220
00:20:25.600 --> 00:20:29.160
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I remember him coming home.

221
00:20:29.650 --> 00:20:40.800
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and he was a foreman in a gravel pit company. We lived in a small town, and it was in Garwood, and he comes home, and he was laid off

222
00:20:41.200 --> 00:20:44.379
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: because he was about to be going into retirement.

223
00:20:44.990 --> 00:20:47.580
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I remember the look on his face

224
00:20:48.130 --> 00:20:50.250
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: because he didn't want to

225
00:20:50.470 --> 00:20:52.680
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: displease or upset my mom.

226
00:20:53.370 --> 00:20:56.590
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I could just see the look.

227
00:20:56.840 --> 00:21:00.269
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: There was no sound, but it was just a look on his face.

228
00:21:00.320 --> 00:21:02.260
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and from that moment

229
00:21:02.340 --> 00:21:03.620
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I was like.

230
00:21:04.820 --> 00:21:11.049
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I was only 15. At that moment I was like you have. There's no job security.

231
00:21:11.850 --> 00:21:15.079
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: And and then it just kind of went off, you know.

232
00:21:15.160 --> 00:21:18.230
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: but it always was in the back of my mind that thought

233
00:21:18.500 --> 00:21:26.114
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and then we I got married in 89 moved to Bryan, Texas.

234
00:21:27.030 --> 00:21:32.550
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: My husband decided to go and get his master's in psychology and counseling.

235
00:21:33.100 --> 00:21:35.940
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I had our 1st child.

236
00:21:36.700 --> 00:21:40.590
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I did not want to put them in daycare at all.

237
00:21:40.750 --> 00:21:42.630
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I did not want to do that.

238
00:21:42.670 --> 00:21:46.689
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: but I was not in a place financially to stay home with them

239
00:21:46.910 --> 00:21:48.600
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: because I needed to work.

240
00:21:48.640 --> 00:21:57.930
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: And so I developed. That's right away when I said, I'm going to open something in my home, and I'm going to make this work. And I'm going to do it. And it's gonna work.

241
00:21:58.200 --> 00:22:00.569
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: So here we are. 35 years later.

242
00:22:00.890 --> 00:22:01.460
Angie Leitnaker: That's amazing.

243
00:22:01.460 --> 00:22:06.029
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: It's been a successful journey. I love

244
00:22:06.780 --> 00:22:10.969
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: the kids. I love working with them, and I love the families.

245
00:22:11.430 --> 00:22:14.339
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: But there was also some more that I wanted.

246
00:22:14.650 --> 00:22:23.379
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: And I was introduced to network marketing, probably about 17 years ago, and it just really was not the right time.

247
00:22:23.510 --> 00:22:26.299
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: But I was always interested in it.

248
00:22:27.360 --> 00:22:34.460
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and so then I took I jumped into it in 2,017, and, boy.

249
00:22:35.180 --> 00:22:44.420
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I absolutely love it. I know some people, you know, don't care for it, but I'm in it for the real enroll.

250
00:22:45.160 --> 00:22:48.400
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: You have to be real. You have to be authentic.

251
00:22:48.430 --> 00:22:50.459
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: You have to be yourself.

252
00:22:50.480 --> 00:22:51.750
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and you have

253
00:22:51.810 --> 00:22:54.850
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: to go into it helping and serving others.

254
00:22:55.530 --> 00:23:01.849
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: The money is great in it, but you have to have. How many people

255
00:23:01.990 --> 00:23:04.510
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: can I help today and serve

256
00:23:05.150 --> 00:23:09.050
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: every morning before I get out of bed? I'm laying in bed.

257
00:23:09.260 --> 00:23:11.669
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I look up, and I'm like God.

258
00:23:12.110 --> 00:23:22.599
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: whoever you want to put in my path today to help and serve if it's for their wealth, or if it's for their health, or if it's for both, I'm your one

259
00:23:22.730 --> 00:23:26.180
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: work through me to be connected with them.

260
00:23:27.170 --> 00:23:29.870
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and that's how I live my life.

261
00:23:30.690 --> 00:23:34.579
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I'm there to help and serve them, and I have met

262
00:23:35.020 --> 00:23:40.530
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: some of the best people online. And still to this day we have not met.

263
00:23:40.610 --> 00:23:43.299
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: you know, with you one Angie.

264
00:23:43.770 --> 00:23:53.960
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: but I meet with with a accountability partner since 2020, and we meet every Tuesday and Thursday, and we have never met.

265
00:23:54.500 --> 00:24:12.199
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: And I've met some of my best friends through that, because we're all in this together, and we're all aligned on the same thing of helping and serving others in this world. And I always tell my team that if we focus on how many people we can help and serve.

266
00:24:12.330 --> 00:24:15.649
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: the money is going to come. That's going to be a return.

267
00:24:16.410 --> 00:24:20.639
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: But we have to be here to help and serve. And so

268
00:24:20.910 --> 00:24:21.870
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: that

269
00:24:22.130 --> 00:24:26.179
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: is my, I just. I love it. I absolutely love it.

270
00:24:26.460 --> 00:24:35.090
Angie Leitnaker: I'm sure they can't tell you. Light up like a Christmas tree when you talk about it. It's just like it's so.

271
00:24:35.120 --> 00:24:37.205
Angie Leitnaker: It's so refreshing.

272
00:24:38.010 --> 00:24:40.370
Angie Leitnaker: because I think we all have

273
00:24:40.570 --> 00:24:51.389
Angie Leitnaker: either seen and or have been part of network marketing done in a way that feels really wonderful and yummy in a way that hasn't always felt aligned.

274
00:24:51.450 --> 00:24:58.269
Angie Leitnaker: And so it's so refreshing to be in your world and and see your passion for

275
00:24:58.770 --> 00:25:02.990
Angie Leitnaker: the profession, and what it can do for people like it's

276
00:25:03.150 --> 00:25:04.320
Angie Leitnaker: I love

277
00:25:04.830 --> 00:25:07.750
Angie Leitnaker: God. How many people can I help today?

278
00:25:08.230 --> 00:25:11.349
Angie Leitnaker: Help and serve in their wealth and health like.

279
00:25:11.370 --> 00:25:12.410
Angie Leitnaker: Wow!

280
00:25:12.490 --> 00:25:18.500
Angie Leitnaker: You know it's like Oprah, Winfrey would always say her prayer every morning was, God use me, you know it's like God.

281
00:25:18.500 --> 00:25:19.399
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: And use me.

282
00:25:19.400 --> 00:25:29.699
Angie Leitnaker: And so that's it's so beautiful. So, Kathy, we're wrapping up here. But what would you tell someone who is like? Oh.

283
00:25:30.460 --> 00:25:33.179
Angie Leitnaker: I have these dreams inside of me.

284
00:25:33.210 --> 00:25:56.549
Angie Leitnaker: I know what Kathy's referring to when she says the there's more like I feel like I'm meant for more. I feel like. I feel like life doesn't need to be the way that I've been living it. And I think we all have our own stuckness. Versions of the needing extra seatbelt. You know we all have that fill in the blank. That's that was one. But there's many that we all struggle with at some point in our life.

285
00:25:57.120 --> 00:26:04.429
Angie Leitnaker: So what would you tell to the woman who's listening to this today? And she's like for so long? I've had these things on my heart.

286
00:26:04.630 --> 00:26:08.380
Angie Leitnaker: and I have not pursued them because I have allowed fear to hold me in a headlock.

287
00:26:08.740 --> 00:26:10.479
Angie Leitnaker: What would you say to her?

288
00:26:11.420 --> 00:26:13.459
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I would tell her to start.

289
00:26:14.650 --> 00:26:17.040
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: find what makes her comfortable.

290
00:26:17.250 --> 00:26:20.260
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: But you gotta be. You gotta get uncomfortable, too.

291
00:26:21.236 --> 00:26:23.370
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: Because walking into a gym.

292
00:26:23.740 --> 00:26:25.650
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and this was a crossfit gym.

293
00:26:25.800 --> 00:26:27.110
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and so

294
00:26:28.350 --> 00:26:30.380
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: you have to

295
00:26:30.890 --> 00:26:32.330
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: wanted enough.

296
00:26:32.680 --> 00:26:34.519
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: Your why has to be big

297
00:26:35.430 --> 00:26:36.255
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and

298
00:26:37.180 --> 00:26:41.909
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: once you establish that, what is your why and why do you want it?

299
00:26:42.450 --> 00:26:57.459
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: You know you need to write down everything on paper that you want to do in the next year, in your fitness journey. What do you want to do? Where do you want to be? How am I going to show up for myself? Who do I need to be to show up for myself.

300
00:26:58.030 --> 00:26:59.250
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and just do it

301
00:26:59.450 --> 00:27:00.510
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: because

302
00:27:00.590 --> 00:27:02.619
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: it will not come easy.

303
00:27:02.910 --> 00:27:03.800
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: But

304
00:27:04.370 --> 00:27:07.539
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: the reward. And I'm still being rewarded.

305
00:27:07.760 --> 00:27:10.150
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: cause I'm I'm I am

306
00:27:11.060 --> 00:27:13.669
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: having wins daily.

307
00:27:13.850 --> 00:27:18.300
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: Those are my small wins, and you need to celebrate your small wins.

308
00:27:18.670 --> 00:27:29.080
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and you tell yourself you're going to survive, and you are going to become that winner. You're going to be able to become that person. But

309
00:27:29.280 --> 00:27:36.399
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: if you want to release a hundred pounds well, what am I going to have to do to do that because you're going to have to put in the work

310
00:27:36.870 --> 00:27:39.060
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: you're going to need to eat right?

311
00:27:39.560 --> 00:27:44.319
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: And you're going to need to show up, and there might be times that

312
00:27:44.650 --> 00:27:50.022
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: you might have to say no to something, because you have a

313
00:27:50.770 --> 00:27:58.459
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: Your training session, you know, with me. Now I go to bed like at 7, 15, 7, 30,

314
00:27:58.470 --> 00:28:00.650
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: because I got to get up at 3,

315
00:28:01.140 --> 00:28:10.609
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: so I had to say no to some some things in the evening. If it's a TV show, or if it's going out, we don't eat out during the week.

316
00:28:10.750 --> 00:28:15.090
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: because it's just not feasible for us, because I like to eat by 6 30.

317
00:28:15.310 --> 00:28:18.609
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: And so you're going to have to give up

318
00:28:19.220 --> 00:28:27.720
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: to get. But in life, no matter if it's your fitness journey. If it's your personal life. If it's your business.

319
00:28:28.090 --> 00:28:33.860
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: you're gonna have to give up things to be able to reach those goals.

320
00:28:33.970 --> 00:28:39.300
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and after you reach those goals I cannot even express the feeling

321
00:28:39.390 --> 00:28:44.200
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: of when I cross that finish line doing my second 10 k.

322
00:28:44.400 --> 00:28:47.039
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: The feeling of inspiration.

323
00:28:47.260 --> 00:28:59.460
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: with joy, of tears flowing down my face. Because I accomplished it. Because people will say, Why would you do that to your body? I said, because I can't. Yes.

324
00:29:00.860 --> 00:29:02.369
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and I'm gonna do it.

325
00:29:02.370 --> 00:29:02.910
Angie Leitnaker: Yes.

326
00:29:02.910 --> 00:29:07.020
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: Stopping me now because I'm gonna continue doing it.

327
00:29:07.250 --> 00:29:07.810
Angie Leitnaker: Yeah.

328
00:29:07.810 --> 00:29:22.340
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: And I want to tell anyone out there, you know that's in my shoes. You can do it. I want to. I want my children. I want my grandchildren to see that, because I want to be here

329
00:29:22.480 --> 00:29:25.990
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: for a long time. I'm only getting started, Angie.

330
00:29:25.990 --> 00:29:26.339
Angie Leitnaker: How do you.

331
00:29:26.340 --> 00:29:27.280
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: Just kidding.

332
00:29:27.280 --> 00:29:31.590
Angie Leitnaker: Started. I feel that in you I feel that anti aging.

333
00:29:31.590 --> 00:29:35.539
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: So I'm a 55 year old, living in a 20 year old, body.

334
00:29:35.540 --> 00:29:36.700
Angie Leitnaker: Got it, girl.

335
00:29:37.275 --> 00:29:39.000
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: In your mind.

336
00:29:39.000 --> 00:29:40.320
Angie Leitnaker: Not even younger.

337
00:29:40.320 --> 00:29:43.700
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: Exactly. And so that's what I tell everybody you need to start

338
00:29:44.530 --> 00:29:46.219
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and just start and go

339
00:29:46.410 --> 00:29:47.978
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and don't look back.

340
00:29:49.070 --> 00:29:55.249
Angie Leitnaker: I love you so much. This has been so much fun. I'm sure we could go on and on and on.

341
00:29:55.250 --> 00:29:55.996
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: Oh yes!

342
00:29:56.370 --> 00:30:03.899
Angie Leitnaker: Where can they find you if they're inspired by you? Oh, and do you want to share a little bit about the products that have helped you.

343
00:30:04.070 --> 00:30:04.770
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: Yes.

344
00:30:05.260 --> 00:30:06.902
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: so back in

345
00:30:07.620 --> 00:30:20.820
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: may end of May. So with you releasing a lot of weight. So I had released. Now I've totally released 131 pounds, and so comes with that you're going to have loose skin.

346
00:30:21.400 --> 00:30:30.539
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: But again, I'm very particular about what I put in my body. I'm very particular. I don't take advil, and I don't take Tylenol for pain. I will find something else to control that.

347
00:30:30.830 --> 00:30:32.130
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: And so

348
00:30:33.190 --> 00:30:40.450
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: Back at the end of May I was introduced. A doctor introduced me to a product that was called Elixir.

349
00:30:41.310 --> 00:30:54.560
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and he was like Kathy. This is amazing, because it's great for working out. It's great. It does so many different things. But what attracted me to it is that it turns off your inflammation, Gene.

350
00:30:54.790 --> 00:30:58.389
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and it turns on your collagen

351
00:30:58.530 --> 00:31:19.680
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: to for your collagen to regrow in your body. So it helps your own collagen start growing again, because around age 25 is when you start losing it, and we can't afford to lose our collagen. And so I started on a product called Elixir. But not only that, it helps with loose skin.

352
00:31:19.790 --> 00:31:29.699
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: It helps with tightening skin. It help. It's it's like so many different things for it to help with. But I want to touch on the 2 things that it really

353
00:31:29.840 --> 00:31:31.640
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: that has brought me

354
00:31:32.530 --> 00:31:51.389
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: to. It was the thing about turning off your inflammation, Gene, and then turning on your collagen progress on it for it to start helping rebuild it. So I have been on it since June the 10, th and I have seen so many different changes. It's it's brought the glow back again.

355
00:31:51.400 --> 00:32:02.809
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: When you, when you take products like this that are natural and and holistic, it's not a quick fix you're going to heal from the inside out.

356
00:32:03.500 --> 00:32:12.890
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: but it's worth it. And again, it's God teaching me patience because I used to be a very impatient person. I wanted it right away.

357
00:32:13.630 --> 00:32:20.860
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: But the journey is so much fun because I kept a journal from day one of the different changes that it has done

358
00:32:20.980 --> 00:32:36.359
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and one change that it's done is a week ago I was at the gym, and one of the female coaches was there, and I told her I said, Isabel, I want you to feel my stomach right here, I said. It's like a big knot, I said, what is that?

359
00:32:36.390 --> 00:33:01.549
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: She goes, girl? That's muscle. And I was like, Oh, my gosh! I have never felt muscle in my stomach, because I've had it was so much loose skin and stuff. And she goes. Yeah, you got you some abs going on. And I was like, Thank goodness for elixir, because if they wouldn't be been able to find something like that, because I was not looking. So I fell in love with it. And I'm like, Well, I'm going to help

360
00:33:01.670 --> 00:33:03.060
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: other people

361
00:33:03.110 --> 00:33:11.519
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: get these results just like I. And like, I said, I'm very authentic and real, and I'm going to tell you the truth about the product.

362
00:33:11.730 --> 00:33:17.120
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: It's not a fast fix, but you know what you hang in there, and you take it every day.

363
00:33:17.210 --> 00:33:23.369
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: You're gonna see changes in your body. And so that's part of my one of my

364
00:33:23.790 --> 00:33:26.689
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: another sidekicks. I'm doing.

365
00:33:32.080 --> 00:33:37.349
Angie Leitnaker: Kathy, I adore you. Thank you so much for being here. This was so fun.

366
00:33:37.350 --> 00:33:39.039
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: It was lots of fun. Lots of.

367
00:33:39.040 --> 00:33:49.899
Angie Leitnaker: So fun. We will likely do a follow up from this, because I know that there's a lot more that we could have spoken about. But just thank you so much for being you. Thank you for being here today and sharing your journey.

368
00:33:50.150 --> 00:33:53.050
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: Yeah, well, thank you, Angie, thank you for having me. And

369
00:33:53.210 --> 00:33:56.081
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I do appreciate our friendship. I

370
00:33:56.900 --> 00:33:58.710
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: I think you're the world

371
00:33:59.070 --> 00:34:03.469
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: and love you so much and so glad to

372
00:34:03.650 --> 00:34:08.150
Kathy Kulhanek Muegge: call you a friend, and we get to do life together. So thank you again for having me.

373
00:34:08.159 --> 00:34:10.899
Angie Leitnaker: So fun. Ditto, sister. Thank you.
