EP. 92 - Kari Pearce | Life After the Podium: Pregnancy, Purpose, and the Power to Reinvent
“You can chase the podium your whole life, but sooner or later, you’re called to stand for something bigger than a medal.”
In this powerful and raw conversation, Bryce sits down with Kari Pearce — six-time CrossFit Games athlete, once America’s Fittest Woman, and now stepping into her greatest reinvention yet: building life beyond the competition floor, embracing pregnancy, and rewriting what strength really means.
This isn’t just about lifting more weight. It’s about laying down the armor, trading the roar of the crowd for the quiet lessons of motherhood, and realizing that sometimes the bravest thing you can do is become a beginner all over again.
Kari opens up like never before — sharing stories of mental grit, identity shifts, the discipline that made her a household name in CrossFit, and the surrender that’s shaping her next chapter. From the power of purpose-driven business to her non-negotiables as she prepares to become a mom, this episode is a masterclass in evolving when the lights fade and real life begins.
