In this episode, Sarah speaks from the heart about what the LM Instructor can get excited about in the next 12 months along with what Sarah would do if she was a full-time Group Fitness Instructor teaching 15 classes per week.

In the podcast, we speak about Les Mills Global Summit from 7th-9th of May and I said I would put a link here. As this event is only for instructors it is not possible for a link to be put here.

Lisa is running 200km for Breast Cancer Now and has raised over £2000 so far!

In this episode, we discuss her reasons why and how her mums battle with cancer is her fuel. We also chat about how breast cancer screenings operate and how women, and men, need to be aware of the symptoms.

“As most of you will know, my mum was diagnosed with breast cancer just before Christmas and has recently had surgery and wait to start her post-op treatment. She wants people to know how important it is to check your boobs and also go for your mammogram. This is how my mum's cancer was caught so early. It would mean so much if you could sponsor me ☺️

This challenge is about getting as many people as possible active and involved in raising awareness and funds for breast cancer research and care. I've included more information about Breast Cancer Now below.

-----

We're Breast Cancer Now, the charity that's steered by world-class research and powered by life-changing care. We're here for anyone affected by breast cancer, the whole way through, providing support for today and hope for the future.

We believe that we can change the future of breast cancer and make sure that, by 2050, everyone diagnosed with the disease lives – and is supported to live well. But we need to act now.”
