In this week’s podcast, Celeste interviews Dr. Chelan Nour: Anesthesiologist, mother and IFBB Bikini Professional.  

    The pair kick off the podcast by talking about show day rituals, as well as how Chelan serves to be a positive source of energy towards other competitors backstage during show day.  Chelan and Celeste go on to mention the importance of positivity and the value of “Celebrating each others” both as people and competitors. 
    The two go on to talk about various obstacles encountered during prep, and how ultimately everything we do comes down to choices we make.  Chelan talks about sayings she incorporates into not only her preps, but lifestyle as well, called “Chelanisms”
    Chelan elaborates on her journey in fitness, from just starting out to earring the title of IFBB Professional.  She goes on to discuss some of the various obstacles she encountered along the way, but ultimately how she overcame them and now views them as being blessings in her life.
    As a physician, Chelan describes her path to becoming a doctor, and her decision to specialize in anesthesiology.  She describes how the discipline she acquired through studying and medicine have translated into the discipline she needs to be successful in bodybuilding and motherhood.  
    Celeste and Chelan talk about Chelan’s experiences competing in the national circuit, as well as feedback she has received from judges along the way.  The duo converse on Chelan’s ultimate “Why” for competing in the first place as well as things that have continually inspired her throughout her journey.  Specifically, Chelan emphasizes the impact a previous podcast on the series affected her on a very personal level.   
    Chelan shares valuable advices for both new competitors and those who are on their road to pro.  Moreover, she talks about the importance of manifesting and dreaming about your goals to make them come to fruition.  Quoting Chelan “If you can dream it, you can do it!”
