Fast Company

The fitness-guru streaming pioneer takes our career questionna­ire.

-

What is your best habit, and what is your worst?

My best is being super consistent with my workouts, being present for my children, showing up for my family, making good food choices. My worst is being nonconfron­tational.

How do you unplug?

I work hard until I know I totally deserve to truly unplug, so I can.

What do you do when you’re creatively stuck?

Deal with the roadblock. When I get stuck, it means I am not living truthfully in some way, so I face it and then the space opens up again.

Is there a famous person you admire?

Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Having that level of commitment to change any system or having a conversati­on with a culture before it is ready is powerful.

What’s always in your bag?

Water and chocolate.

Is there a book you recommend to everyone?

The Road to Character, by David Brooks. If you don’t have good character then I don’t care how successful you appear, you’re pretty poor in my book.

What advice would you give your younger self?

Don’t sit back and watch your innovation get ripped off over and over again. Bad people will take your gifts in business and not think twice about it.

Do you have a mantra?

“Focus on what you love and who needs you most.”

Did you have a career fork in the road?

You can train celebritie­s or you can research and create content that improves lives. It is impossible to do both, and I chose the content.

What is the business buzzword you never want to hear again?

“What’s your succession plan?”

Do you have a work uniform?

Sweats and cashmere sweaters over one-piece swimsuits and leggings.

What TV show are you mid-binge on?

The Mandaloria­n, for the second time around. I am obsessed. I could watch The Righteous Gemstones again too.

What is your go-to food for fast fuel?

Toasted sourdough bread and butter and a green juice.

What do you send to congratula­te someone?

If they are dating someone new, I send tubs of C & the Moon body scrub. If [someone got] a promotion, I show up with lots of great wine so that I can celebrate with them!

What’s your “get pumped” song?

It’s so embarrassi­ng, but I feel like Justin Bieber broke into Justin Timberlake territory with “Yummy.”

Is there a meeting you never miss?

Any meeting that has to do with my kids.
