Your Body Is Talking. Are You Listening? | Leticia Roman on Movement, Mindset & Sustainable Wellness

What if the key to transformation isn't pushing harder—it's learning to listen?

Leticia "Lety" Roman is a Brooklyn-born Nuyorican who went from professional dancer to pioneering the boutique fitness movement in Mexico City. As co-founder of Sersana, Mexico's leading functional fitness methodology, she's built a business around a radical idea: movement as medicine and sustainable wellness.

But her journey wasn't always about balance. For years as a dancer, Lety ignored pain, chased perfection, and navigated an industry that told her thinner was better. It wasn't until she unlearned those pressures that she discovered what real strength looks like—and it had nothing to do with the mirror.

In this conversation, we talk about:

✨ Why movement is one of the most powerful forms of medicine

✨ The mind-body connection and learning to trust your intuition

✨ How Lety built a thriving wellness brand in a market that wasn’t ready for it

✨ Why real change takes 3 months (not 30 days)

✨ How to build sustainable health habits without burnout

✨ What "well living" actually means (and why quick fixes fail)

✨ Bioindividuality: Why your fitness journey is unique to you

✨ The one non-negotiable that keeps her from burning out as a mother, business owner, and creative

If you've ever felt disconnected from your body, exhausted by fitness trends, or stuck chasing someone else's version of "healthy"—this episode is for you.

Listen now and discover what your body has been trying to tell you all along.
