Today, I speak with vegan IFBB Pro Breana Wigley. She started her journey in April 2017 and earned her IFBB PRO status in 5 months at the North Americans. She quickly started moving through the rankings as a IFBB pro by competing in 8 shows her rookie season and placing within the top 10. After focusing on qualifying for Olympian- that goal momentarily got put on hold due to beautiful life events- becoming a mom. After nearly 2 years away from the stage Breana is hopeful that one day soon she will compete again but this time with a lot more fire and drive because now she has a sweet baby girl cheering her on.
She talks about the decision to press pause on competing and start a family, and when she may return to the stage. She takes the lessons she’s learned from competing in all aspects of her life, including motherhood! We also hear her experience as a military spouse and how that has shaped her family.
Bre offers such a fresh perspective on motherhood, lifestyle, and competing. You don’t want to miss the interview!
Topics covered include:
-transition to motherhood
-being a vegan athlete
-body image and pregnancy
-changes during pregnancy
-the comparison trap
-deciding to compete
-the importance of being coachable
-deciding to stay natural
-being a military spouse
-the entrepreneurial mindset
