In today’s episode, I sit down with IFBB Fit Model Pro Brooklyn Goodsell, a mom and founder of Fierce Queen Fitness. She started competing in 2013 and competed on and off through 2017 before stepping away to have her son in 2018. She returned to the stage when he was 13 months old, placing 4th at the Idaho Cup while navigating postpartum depression and building her business. Over the years, she competed at the national level across multiple seasons before transitioning into the Fit Model division in 2025. She earned her Pro card at the 2025 Amateur Olympia where she placed first.
