This week, Brent sits down with Tori Penta — athlete, yoga teacher, and founder of Holy Body — to talk about the messy, beautiful journey of transformation.
What happens when two creative powerhouses — one a mom decide to stop talking about getting fit and actually start lifting heavy things with Brent? Chaos. Laughter. Soreness. And a whole lot of transformation.In this episode of Bodies by Brent, Katie West and Laura North share how they basically stalked Brent until he agreed to train them (their words, not ours). They talk about walking into the gym nervous, surviving their first workouts, and realizing that strength training was exactly what they needed — not just for their bodies, but for their business, families, and sanity.Somewhere between deadlifts and dumbbells, Katie & Laura also manage to run Headspace Salon & Cooperative — a beauty collective that’s just as much about community as it is about hair. We dive into how fitness fuels their creativity, how Laura balances motherhood and entrepreneurship, and why training has been the ultimate secret weapon for confidence.This one’s part fitness story, part business lesson, and part comedy hour.📌 Episode Chapters00:00 – 07:30 | “Brent, Please Train Us!”: How Katie & Laura convinced Brent to let them join the Bodies by Brent crew.07:30 – 24:00 | Surviving the First Workouts: Spoiler --- they lived.
