Enjoying Life OTR

No More Excuses: Activating Your Innate Perseverance for Peak Wellness
Ever feel like the demanding life on the road makes it impossible to prioritize your health and fitness? Time to kick those excuses to the curb! This podcast is all about empowering truckers to unleash their innate determination and problem-solving abilities for next-level wellness.
Malinda's guest is the inspiring Coach Bronson, who didn't start his own fitness journey until his late 30s after being 70 pounds overweight with urgent bowel issues and health problems. Now at 51, he's transformatively reformed his life through proper nutrition and fitness. Coach Bronson has spent over a decade coaching others, emphasizing that true body confidence goes beyond just aesthetics - it's about improving what your body is capable of achieving.
Together, they get raw and real, dishing out no-BS advice and motivating you to activate that same perseverance mindset for your physical and mental fitness. Expect candid trucker tales translating into actionable health hacks crafted specifically for the open road. From strategic meal prep plans to checkpoint goals for fitness routines, you'll learn to apply skills you already master as a driver. Tune in for a heavy dose of insight on nutrients that fuel hustle without the crash, exercises to stay limber in the cab, and mindset shifts to keep your wellness aspirations trucking.
With Coach Bronson's mission of helping others say "YES I CAN" to life's challenges, this isn't about droning lectures. It's an uplifting conversation among comrades understanding the unique trials and triumphs of transportation. By tapping into your inherent grit, you can transform from just surviving those long hauls to thriving through them with energy and vitality.
No more excuses, drivers! Unlock the unstoppable within and become a body confident wellness warrior.

#41 Heavy Hauling and Advocacy for Truckers

Embark on an auditory journey with the tenacious trucking couple, Lee and Lisa Smith, as they regale us with tales from the ever-moving world of over-the-road hauling. Lee, with his farming roots firmly planted in his rearview mirror, maneuvers through the specialized domain of heavy hauling, while Lisa expertly navigates the logistics and social media landscape to support their shared venture. Together, they tackle the complexities of trucker relationships, the thrill of police-escorted deliveries, and the critical role of advocacy in their industry, ensuring their voices are heard loud and clear.
Turning the spotlight on the political frontlines, the Schmitts share their unwavering commitment to the fight for trucker rights and fair industry standards. Their insights reveal the precarious balance between profitability and becoming mere cogs in the revenue machine for others. We dissect the implications of proposed regulations like speed limiters, automatic emergency braking, and the quest for broker transparency, exposing the DRIVE Act and the pressing need for protective measures against rampant industry fraud.
As we gear down, we celebrate the power of community in the trucking industry through our vibrant Facebook group, Enjoying Life OTR. This sanctuary of solidarity is where truckers exchange pointers for the best roadside stops, offer tips to a healthier lifestyle, and simply connect over shared experiences. It stands as a beacon for those seeking to cherish every mile of their journey, and we invite you to join this celebration of the trucker spirit. Tune in to this episode for a potent mix of personal tales, industry insights, and an unwavering support system that fuels the heart of the open road.

#43 The Trucker's Fable: Finding Harmony on the Highway

Embark on a voyage with me, Cindy Tunstall, as I recount the tales and trials of my life as an over-the-road truck driver. It's a journey that began in 2020, filled with the allure of the open road, the taste of freedom in every mile, and the wisdom found in a simple fable. Feel the wind in your hair as I contemplate upgrading to a CDL and the possibilities that come with it, like steering my 26-foot box truck into nooks and crannies unreachable by the big rigs. From the camaraderie among fellow drivers to the gastronomic delights at hidden food stops, I weave the story of our collective quest for a golden balance between work and life, echoing the timeless lesson of the Goose and the Golden Egg.
Joining me in this episode is my co-host Melinda Fox Wellington, who brings her own flavor of insight into our discussions on health and wellness on the road. Together, we tackle the hard truths about what it means to take care of ourselves when our office is behind the wheel. We're talking cholesterol, blood pressure, and the significance of making those small, yet life-altering adjustments to our routines. Melinda and I invite you to become a part of our vibrant Facebook communities, Healthier Truckers and Enjoying Life OTR, where we champion the cause for a healthier, happier life on the long haul. This episode is an ode to the journey, the joy, and our heartfelt gratitude to you, our treasured listener community, for hitching a ride with us on this incredible adventure.
