E113 | Alena Luciani: Adversity, Loss, & Leadership in Coaching

Does experiencing loss or adversity make you a more effective leader? On today’s show, Alena Luciani and I discuss how trial and tribulation help us forge stronger relationships and facilitate better communication practices. 

Also on today’s episode:

• Exposure > vulnerability
• What to do when you see your biggest strength as a weakness
• How many training and nutrition certifications do we need? 
• “Motivation is glamorized”

A former athlete and collegiate strength coach, Alena is the founder and owner of Training 2XL, a business that offers mentorship masterminds, custom fitness/nutrition programming, small group training and “Cueing & Programming” clinics. She is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist, USA Weightlifting Sport Performance Coach, and Precision Nutrition Level 1 Coach.
