Today is a very special episode; because instead of calling in with my interviewee? {laughs} Sometimes those puzzle me. I’m sitting right next to her! I’m joined today by my friend, Jessica Gaertner, who is the blogger behind Paleo-ish. She is the mom of two adorable kiddos, a licensed and certified athletic trainer, who works for Airrosti; and she’s joining us today to talk about the importance of recovery and really just taking care of ourselves; especially if we’re living these active, healthy lifestyles. Welcome to the show, Jess!<br> <br> Jess Gaertner: Thank you for having me! I’m super excited to be here; in my own house.<br> <br> Cassy Joy: I know! {laughs}<br> <br> Jess Gaertner: {laughs} Thank you for coming over!<br> <br> Cassy Joy: Oh, you know what? Any time. I will lug this microphone over here if it means I get to see that sweet puppy dog of yours.<br> <br> Jess Gaertner: I know. He’s so precious. I love him so much!<br> <br> Cassy Joy: He is. Jess just adopted a Great Pyrenees puppy; he’s 5 months old now?<br> <br> Jess Gaertner: Mm-hmm.<br> <br> Cassy Joy: Oh my gosh.<br> <br> Jess Gaertner: He’s a handful; you saw him. {laughs}<br> <br> Cassy Joy: He is so cute!<br> <br> Jess Gaertner: He’s a mini Gus. But he’s different though because he has some color to him.<br> <br> Cassy Joy: Mm-hmm.<br> <br> Jess Gaertner: He’s precious.<br> <br> Cassy Joy: He does. He’s got a little badger in him.<br> <br> Jess Gaertner: Yes.<br> <br> Cassy Joy: The Great Pyrenees; if anybody listening doesn’t know what we’re talking about; Great Pyrenees are these great big polar bear-looking dogs, and we have a 4-year-old at home. And he’s mostly white; he’s got some blonde spots. And then their other coloration is called badger where they have these big, really cool; almost St. Bernard kind of spots on them. And Ollie’s got a couple of those. He’s so cute.
