Kelsey Lensman joined the reckless CEO Podcast to talk about her journey as an entrepreneur, fitness fanatic, and business owner. She began by introducing herself, explaining that she is from Canton, Ohio and attended Ohio State, where she rowed for the rowing team. She also discussed her brand, Empower Her Fitness, which hosts events and raises charities. She expressed her surprise at meeting up with the host of the podcast, who she had been running in similar circles with since coming to Columbus. 

Kelsey had to make a difficult decision between pursuing athletics or their sports medicine degree. She chose the latter, and it was a challenging time for her as her identity was heavily intertwined with being an athlete. She felt lost and empty, and eventually got out of a bad relationship. One day, the kelsey looked in the mirror and didn't recognize herself, leading her to realize that she had to get themselves back. This was the hardest thing she had ever had to do in her life.

Michael and Kelsey discussed the way she got back to the gym after walking away from her sports career. She felt empty and needed to find her sense of self again. To do this, she committed to the gym and pushed herself to do things she never thought she was capable of. This was difficult, but she was able to find her fire again. She explained that it is important to have a commitment to yourself, as many of us are good at letting ourselves down. Even after we accomplish something, we must continue to push ourselves and not become complacent.

They discuss how complacency is a common issue among entrepreneurs and athletes, especially when they stop feeling the intensity and hunger for growth. To combat this, it is important to start with small micro commitments to get back into the growth mindset, and to take risks and push for the tens, even if it means risking the ones. The speaker uses the example of his own life, where he has been stuck in the fives and sixes, but has decided to take risks and push for the tens in order to reach new goals. He also alludes to a podcast he heard, in which the guest spoke about how so many people are afraid of getting to the ones, and how it is important to push past the fear and strive for the tens.
