In this special episode of The Coach Mark Carroll Podcast, Mark is joined by Layla, one of the elite coaches from the CMC Premium team. From her roots in Kazakhstan to running a women’s gym in Canada, Layla shares her journey through competitive fitness, motherhood, and eventually becoming a key part of the CMC Premium coaching program. This is a raw and inspiring conversation about what makes great coaching, the power of personalized guidance, and why one-on-one coaching can be the real game-changer in your fitness journey.
