Not Another Mindset Show
Not Another Mindset show, hosted by Dr. Kasey Jo, is not your typical personal development podcast. We’re talkin’ evidence-based strategies to improve your health, fitness, business, and life. But don’t expect an audio textbook, either. Science is a top priority of this show, but we’re here to have a good time. Host Dr. Kasey Jo Orvidas has been in the health and fitness industry since 2016 and has a Ph.D. in Psychology. She’s known for her research and programs that blend the science of mindset and behavior change with nutrition and exercise. You can expect research study breakdowns, personal stories, client case studies, and splash of random shenanigans. Allllll with the intent to help you see more growth in your life (and have some fun along the way). Want to learn more?
