I met Christina at a boxing class, I was visiting NYC for my 40th birthday and per my normal tradition of taking a new fitness class, Christina happened to be my instructor. I fell in love with her energy and passion for teaching and encouraging her class. Afterwards we chatted about all things. I heard her story and knew she had to share it on our podcast. Christina has been a fitness model for Nike, Adidas. She has been featured in Shaun T’s Beach Body videos. She was a professional dancer and spent time as part of the Rockettes. 

She is currently a Rumble Boxing Instructor and she is sharing her passion and story to help heal others. 

 

For anyone who has struggled with loving their body,  or struggling to talk to themselves with kindness, this podcast is for you. Christina Jensen opens her heart and shares her very vulnerable story of her relationship with her body. For years Christina battled with being comfortable in her own skin. Through constant critique in the dance and fitness model industry she had to learn how to switch the old narrative and make a new one. 

 

I love this interview because she is New Yorker, and you know I love New York, but she tells it to us straight. 

She talks about how because of her industry she was constantly critiqued and scrutinized. She now uses her story of healing to help other women love themselves, to switch the narrative of what many have been told about themselves and to see themselves differently as a beautiful masterpiece. The world is so filtered, how do we practice loving ourselves just the way we are.
