I’m very excited about today’s episode, because I really get to put a face and a voice to this name that I have been sharing with you guys for months now. I have invited Clara, who is the head of marketing over at Aaptiv to come on the show today. We’re going to chat more about this amazing online robust fitness community. I am personally a user, a huge fan, and I’m so excited to pick her brain, learn more about Aaptiv, and tell you guys more about this really wonderful way that you can fit fitness in, that slides really nicely in with your lifestyle. So welcome to the show, Clara! <br> <br> Clara: Oh, hi! I’m so happy to be here Cassy. We’re such fans.<br> <br> Cassy Joy: Oh {laughs} thank you so much. It’s mutual. {laughs} I’m a fan of you guys.<br> <br> Clara: It’s just nice to work with good people, you know? <br> <br> Cassy Joy: Yeah.<br> <br> Clara: I always say; we could be; well, I love what we do, but I could be selling, I don’t know, whatever, and it’s all about the people. <br> <br> Cassy Joy: It really is.<br> <br> Clara: So it’s great. It’s really great to work with you.<br> <br> Cassy Joy: Oh my goodness; likewise. And the listeners here have known for a while, but I’m the same way. There are companies that I love, I will like their product. But when I get really, really excited, it’s usually because I’ve gotten to know the people and the faces behind the brand, and there’s a lot of depth there, and it makes me even more excited to share your resources with the listeners here. So thank you so much for being a part of the podcast.<br> <br> Clara: Yeah! <br> <br> Cassy Joy: And thank you so much for making time to come onto todays show. But I was wondering if you could just kick things off; set a little background information; tell folks a little bit about yourself and your roll at Aaptiv.<br> <br> Clara: Yeah, totally. So like you said, I lead marketing and communications for the brand, and my entire career background is in marketing PR, digital marketing, social media, that type of thing. I sort of fell backwards into this fitness/wellness community. I actually started out as a blogger in 2011. The remnants of it are still online,
