Either your time is limited or you\u2019re not sure if a gym would be willing to invest in you with a limited schedule. This is a position that many fit pro moms have experienced and in this episode of the Balance Podcast, guest Michelle Lasiter shares experience and mindset during these times in her career. Michelle is the mom of two young boys and roughly 6-years ago left her position as Director of Group Exercise for a major fitness chain in Phoenix, AZ. Michelle shares what the decision was like when she left her director position and what the next few years looked like when she decided to get back into teaching group exercises classes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">An interesting point in the podcast is when Michelle shares advice for fit pros going into their interview process and what it was like from the managers perspective. This advice can hopefully help those with limited availability and give fit pros the motivation to get back to following their passion. Michelle also shares what she has liked about teaching classes online. Over the last two years, Michelle has dabbled in online workouts which has been flexible on her schedule and allowed her to work from home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Learn more about Michelle Lasiter &#8211;<\/strong><\/span> <span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #800000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/michellemlasiter\/\">CLICK HERE.<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/tracks\/1271607334%3Fsecret_token%3Ds-gIe4fXV3myO&amp;color=%23ff5500&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=true&amp;show_comments=false&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false&amp;show_teaser=false\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/show\/7ycTSomS1F4YRMtiFIIJjo\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1782 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/balancely.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Spotify-Banner-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"728\" height=\"90\" srcset=\"https:\/\/balancely.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Spotify-Banner-1.png 728w, https:\/\/balancely.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Spotify-Banner-1-300x37.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 728px) 100vw, 728px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div style=\"font-size: 10px; color: #cccccc; line-break: anywhere; word-break: normal; overflow: hidden; white-space: nowrap; text-overflow: ellipsis; font-family: Interstate,Lucida Grande,Lucida Sans Unicode,Lucida Sans,Garuda,Verdana,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-weight: 100;\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Finding the time to teach group exercise classes as mom can be a struggle.
