    32: It's Never Too Late To Work For Your Goals | Kristi Brewer
    2020/09/14
    Kristi Brewer: “To me it comes down to what do you want more? I want weightlifting more than I want a social life, more than I want to watch tv--I haven't watched tv in 18 years. I want/need to lose 2lbs, more than I want that cake or cookie. It literally comes down to what you want more. Priorities. 
    My biggest pet peeve is when people say “I don't have time.” Do you want to know who doesn't have time?” I don't have time.  I train to be an elite athlete, I have an autistic child, I have another child in sports and social life, my husband is a medical doctor he works 7:30am-7:30pm….so when people say they don’t have time. It literally comes down to what you want. You will make time for the people and things you want.”
