Reading Time: < 1 minuteEach week on Thursdays, Michael and I will be hosting a WLC Podcast Hangout. We thought it would be fun to talk with people from around the world that have interesting, fun, inspiring, and unique stories to tell about how the Whole Life Challenge has had an impact on their life and the lives of people in their community.
We keeping our format intentionally loose, but we’ll stick to three basic areas:
- News and happenings in the world of the Whole Life Challenge
- Hangout with one (or more) special guests
- Answer questions you’ve submitted via Facebook and Twitter
This week we talked with Heather McKearnan and Nate Harris of Undisputed Fitness in Santa Fe, New Mexico. They have been powerhouse affiliate partners, participating in every single worldwide Challenge since the first in September of 2012. In every case, they have had one of the largest official teams (by number of players) and have seen incredible, life-altering changes in the people in their community.
Please listen in on the conversation with us!
