Podcast Episode #138: Jennipher Walters and Kristen Seymour “And … We’re Back!”

On May 19, 2020, FBGs Jenn, Kristen, and Margo hung up the mic. And now … The Fit Bottomed Girls Podcast is BACK!

In this conversation, Jenn and Kristen join new owner and Editor-in-Chief, Alison Heilig, to discuss the origins of Fit Bottomed Girls, reflecting on its evolution, the challenges faced in the health and fitness industry starting in 2008, milestones achieved along the way, and the changing landscape of health and wellness over the past 16 years.

And most importantly, we talk about what led them to step away from Fit Bottomed Girls, both personally and professionally, and why they felt Alison was the right person to take over and lead FBG into the future.
