The Full Experience: fitness, love, death & community with Supernatural coach, Leanne Pedante
Have you ever wanted to just SMASH things? Leanne Pedante and her husband Miles’ relationship was built on bravery and communication – they worked so hard to reach the next step together, excited to explore the edges of possibility in love and in life. On his way back to see Leanne after several months away, Miles’ car veered off the road, and he was killed.
In the just under three years since, Leanne has continued to grow the virtual reality fitness community, Supernatural. As a late-comer to fitness, Leanne is no stranger to using movement as a way to process and express pain.
Today on It’s OK, we discuss the ways grief has upended her life, and the ways that both movement and community have kept her alive – willing, at least most days, to lean into the full experience of life.
