This week on the podcast, I’m joined by the incredibly dynamic Kerstin Schultze — fitness guru, trainer, actor, and performer. Kerstin’s journey began in competitive athletics, representing Germany in the Junior Olympics. After moving to the U.S., she transitioned into acting, landing roles that showcase both her physicality and charisma. Most recently, she appeared in a featured role on The Righteous Gemstones alongside Danny McBride and Walton Goggins.
