Heartsong Fit With Vickie Maris | Healthy Ways to Address Stress

Heartsong Fit podcast is stress-relieving conversation for the stressed and stretched-too-thin listener. Your host, Vickie Maris, has been traveling a journey of improving fitness, mindfulness and overall health. With a busy career, farm and life as a musician, she was also involved in elder care that created a demand on her time and increased her stress levels. To address her stress and to keep "skin in the game," Vickie became a Beachbody Coach. That provided her with access to Shakeology at the coach's discounted rate. She continues to include a Shakeology shake in her morning routine and has now added a fitness program. Enjoy her stories and interviews as she shares her journey of living a less-stressed, and a healthier life.
