My guest on this podcast, Angi Fletcher, is a model, actress, blogger, triathlete, and well-known wellness and health authority. Angi is focused on providing her audience with mindset shifts, physical tools, income opportunities, nutrition tips, and more at https://angiandarlynd.com/ She is also one of the incredible parents featured in my new book Boundless Parenting. https://boundlessparentingbook.com/ A full-time international model from the age of 18, Angi lived in Europe and New York before settling in Los Angeles. Difficult circumstances in Angi’s life - including divorce, financial ruin, the death of her parents, and debilitating anxiety and depression - eventually led her to seek health through detoxing, cleansing, and rebuilding her life. Angi’s husband, Arlynd Fletcher, is a functional movement and biomechanics specialist. After watching his mother suffer from back injuries throughout his childhood, Arlynd developed a drive to understand how the body works and what causes dysfunction. He has worked with many experts in the field in his research and has been called a modern-day “body whisperer.” During our discussion, you'll discover: -Angi's upbringing and experience with grief at a young age...6:52 -How Angi almost died on the bathroom floor in her tiny apartment in Los Angeles...12:55 -Angi's journey to becoming a competitive triathlete...16:25 -The traditions Angi created as a single mom raising her first-born son, Oliver...22:30 -How Ben turned things around for his sons when they weren't able to go on their family vacation...27:17 -How travel expands the mind in both children and adults...30:00 -How Angi's younger children are homeschooled...38:20 -The way Ben and Jessa set up the education perimeters for their sons' learning and unschooling...42.44 -Angi's gratitude for the ability to thrive in her online career...50:00 -Ben's family's mission statement...51:40 -What a typical day looks like for Angi and Arlynd, and how they balance work and self-care...55:33 -The epic activities Ben does with his sons and the importance of including them...60:25 -How Angi prioritizes the things that bring her joy so she is able to be her best self for her children...64:05 -Angi's messages in Boundless Parenting...66:00 You can check out the full episode page and show notes at: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/fletcher Additional Resources: Ben Greenfield Website: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/ Ben Greenfield Podcast: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/podcast/ Ben Greenfield Books: https://shopbengreenfieldlife.com/collections/books Ben Greenfield Social Media: Twitter https://twitter.com/bengreenfield Instagram https://www.instagram.com/bengreenfieldfitness/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BGFitness TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@bengreenfield Youtube handle: @BenGreenfieldLife #AngiFletcher #parentingtips #parenting #BenGreenfield
