Denise Austin is one of the original fitness influencers. And she's as passionate about getting America moving as she was in the early 1980s.

Denise got her TV start as the first fitness correspondent on the Today Show. She was a natural and quickly became a household name.

That led to a daily 30 minute exercise show that aired for more than 20 years. She went on to sell more than 25 million exercise VHS tapes and DVDs. She authored 12 best selling books.

More than 40 years later, Denise is still sharing workouts on social media and YouTube. And, her daughter Katie is a popular fitness influencer for Gen Z and millennials.

How'd she stay passionate about her job for more than four decades?

"You go to meet the people, you feel the love . You think, yeah, this is why I'm doing it. They tell you their stories, and how much better they feel," says Denise.

In this episode, Denise shares how she maintains her positivity no matter what obstacle life throws her way. We're going beyond fitness and getting advice on growing a business, growing a family and growing older with her community.
