Welcome to episode 9 of She’s Gutsy!
In this episode, our host, Juli Kleinhans, sits down with the incredibly warm and inspiring Caitlin Hood (known to her community as “Chommie”). Caitlin is a content creator, wellness enthusiast, BASI Pilates instructor, ultra-marathon runner, and the 2024 Women’s Health SA Cover Search Winner.
Today, we pull back the curtain on the “messy middle” of her journey. We chat about her early discipline as a little girl, the reality of grinding in a demanding corporate 9-to-5, and the severe burnout that led to a pivotal wake-up call. Caitlin opens up deeply about her battle with crippling anxiety, the terrifying leap of resigning to bet entirely on herself, and what profound independence looks like after stepping out of a 10-year relationship.
This isn’t just an interview; it’s a real, honest conversation about true growth, refusing to limit your own potential, and the courage it takes to build a life of movement. Grab a coffee (or listen on your next run!), and join us for a chat with no pressure, no performance, and no perfection.
