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!

All show notes, episode time stamps, links, and information can be found on www.celestial.fit/podcast

5 things bodybuilding changed about

July 09, 20261 min read
  1. I SEE FOOD AS PROTEINS, CARBS, OR FATS

  2. I SEE BODIES THROUGH THE LENS OF WHAT THEY CAN DO, REPRESENT, AND HOW THEY PERFORM & STRUGGLE TO SEE HOW SOME THINGS ARE SEXUALIZED. I HAVE BEEN IN THIS WORLD SINCE I WAS 16 SO I DON’T REALLY SEE A “BUTT”, I SEE “GLUTES”.

  3. I LOST JUDGMENT ON TYPES OF FOOD AND WORKOUTS. I SEE THE VALUE IN ALL SORTS OF FOODS, MOVEMENTS, AND APPROACHES.

  4. REST IS WELCOMED BECAUSE I NOW KNOW IT IS NECESSARY FOR HEALTH, RECOVERY, BUILDING

  5. YOU CAN WALK AWAY AS A WINNER WITHOUT A TROPHY, MEDAL, OR TITLE. WINNING CAN MEAN A LOT OF DIFFERENT THINGS. 10 YEARS OF GROWTH AND PROGRESS IN THE SPORT AND NO PRO CARD DOES NOT MEAN I WAS UNSUCCESSFUL.

WHAT HAS BODYBUILDING CHANGED ABOUT YOUR PERSPECTIVES?
