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!

Kate
shares more about herself: "I am a searcher, and a student, of writing, philosophy, health and self improvement. I am a transformation consultant and I invite clients to design the best version of themselves from their deepest imaginations.

I was introduced to competing in bikini in 2012. I turned pro at Nationals in Miami in 2014, and won my pro debut in Sacramento in 2015, earning me a spot on the Olympia stage that year. I took two full years away from the stage due to a full hamstring tear, as well as some other life injuries, and returned fall 2017. I recently placed 5th in 2017 and then 3rd in early 2018. I struggle with autoimmune illnesses like celiacs and lupus, and am currently recovering from a relatively major flareup of both.

I am passionate about positive energy and questioning the meaning of life, different for each. I am also incredibly passionate about food, health, intestinal health, mental health and improving the condition of life for others as they age. Eldercare and fitness is one of my greatest passions. I am also in love with my cat, and all animals. I enjoy sharing time and knowledge with others, in every way."
