The Confessions of a Bikini Pro Podcast was established in May of 2018 as the first and only place where IFBB Bikini Pros share their struggles, strategies, stories, insights, and advice in a real, raw, and vulnerable setting. Host, Celeste Rains-Turk, dives into the parts of these professionals' lives that aren't always openly discussed in the public eye or on social media (You know, the stuff we tend to wonder about the most).
The goal of this podcast is to educate, inspire, and remind other competitors, athletes, or the average gym goer that even the most elite professionals face hardships, health problems, mental obstacles, and other adversities.
There are a wide range of topics discussed including, but DEFINITELY NOT limited to; post-show rebound, health complications, eating disorders, mental illnesses, winning mindset, dealing with losses, judges feedback, approaches to the stage, life outside of competing, money, relationships, philosophy, pursuing passions, and SO MUCH MORE!

Every day is an opportunity to celebrate all that bodybuilding has given me and continues to
I have had the dream of becoming an IFBB pro for a decade and in that decade I’ve fallen in love with every aspect of the process, the community, and even found a way to serve using my passion and education in psychology and clinical mental health counseling to help other competitors #BuildMoreThanJustaBody not just through my resources and services but #ConfessionsOfaBikiniPro Podcast too
Looking at this journey I’ve been on, there has been heartbreak, pain, setbacks, failure, grief (lots of this), and all the other wild things that you can possibly imagine happening in a 10 year span
But there’s also been an incredible amount of love, blessings, opportunities, lessons, wins, connection, and all the beautiful things you can imagine in a 10 year span
My story is one of growing faith, constant overcoming and a disciplined drive to pursue the dream
No matter what happens between now and 23 days from now there will be 3 things that are true
1) God’s love and His plan is ENOUGH FOR ME. Let His will be done. He loves me no matter what and for that I owe my life to Jesus
2) I have given my all without wavering on my values or commitments
3) The most fulfilled I’ve felt is in the daily pursuit. Every moment on stage has been a cherry on top that allows my spirit to revel in all that’s been grown in me through this
While there is so much more to say, the journey is not done… each day a new me is being born from the old me and I will continue to push against odds, doubters, and myself
I’m so grateful for all the support I’ve received. You all have no idea how much it truly means to me and uplifts me daily
