#01 Alex Hipwell on Mindset Training and Creating Yourself
In our very first episode of Awaken your Abilities, our guest is Alex Hipwell. She is a Dancer, Choreographer, Body Builder, Nike Master Trainer and Mother, with over 20 years experience in the fitness and entertainment industry. She is also host Gerjet Efken’s Olympic Weightlifting Coach. After a very successful career as an athlete herself, Alex has specialized on mindset coaching for top athletes and managers. She shares some of her personal tools that have helped her get her ass out of bed in the morning and to the gym, every single day for consistent years.
In the first episode of Awaken your Abilities, she also shares her approach of creating and developing herself, how the perception and role of women in sports has changed, how we can empower one another in difficult times, and how to find the right balance between a professional career, and personal life – including her journey through postnatal depression and how she has used that experience to help people better manage their mental wellness.

Awaken your Abilities
At Skill Yoga, we’ve made it our mission to combine yogic traditions with state of the art training science to make yoga more accessible and effective since day one. Overtime we began to see that for many, the regular practice of yoga was only the first step in moving towards understanding their true self and living a more connected, grateful and holistic life. Now, with our podcast Awaken your Abilities we want to offer compelling experiences, weird habits, crazy routines, and inspiring ideas from other exceptional humans so you can test and incorporate new methods into your own life. Through the power of intelligent conversation, we want to be an inspiration and the gateway drug to personal growth.
