MARIA GIESEY; 1 Point From Pro, Feedback is your Focus, Health Season, Self-Worth, Marriage & Sport

In today’s episode, I sit down with IFBB Bikini Pro Maria Giesey, a Coach with Pro Physique and Account Coordinator for a healthcare recruiting company. Maria started competing in 2019 and after 15 shows, she earned her Pro card at the 2023 NPC Universe. She recently married her partner of 10 years, and together they share their home with their fluffy cat, Kibby.

We dive into the challenges of missing her Pro card multiple times, overcoming self-doubt, and the mindset shifts that kept her going. Maria shares how she uses yoga and meditation to combat anxiety, prioritizes gut health, and stays passionate about the sport while helping others through coaching.
