Free Your Mind and The Body Follows With Kole Dugger and Ben Valdez, Personal Trainer CPT, CES, CNS

Author: Juliette Marhofer-Dugger March 25, 2023 Duration: 44:17

In this episode I'm honored to sit down with two dear friends: my biological son, Kole Dugger and my spiritual son, Ben Valdez. Ben shares with us his transition from one stage of his life which became the springboard for his career as a phenomenal Personal Trainer, holding many certifications and an extensive background in understanding the mind/body connection while building incredible relationships. He shares insight regarding the baseline of where we begin and how we breakthrough to a greater capacity in our physical training and wellness in life. Ben also shares the impact Soul Care continues to have on his life today and that it’s essential to living a healthy existence.

Kole takes us on a deep dive of how thrifted clothes started their friendship, a training modality that supports his mental health and spiritual connection to God and himself, and why he believes the agreements we make can cause us to accept less than the best version of ourselves.

Bonus, find out about the competition Ben signed up for as a result of a rhythm in his life he's had going strong over five years! 

We believe this could be the best part of your day!

Thank you for listening friend!

Hosted by Juliette Marhofer-Dugger, Yellow Soul is built on the belief that the experiences which shape us are worth examining, no matter how messy or unconventional they might seem. This interview-based podcast moves through a unique landscape where personal faith, professional hustle, and the pursuit of meaning constantly intersect. Each episode features candid, "rogue" conversations that refuse to stay in neat boxes, exploring how spirituality informs business decisions, how entrepreneurship tests personal values, and how the journey of self-improvement is often deeply rooted in something greater. You'll hear from a variety of voices discussing the real, often unspoken, challenges and triumphs found at the crossroads of Christianity, commerce, and personal growth. The guiding idea is simple yet profound: if something defined you, it matters. This podcast creates a space to unpack those defining moments with honesty and depth, offering listeners not just stories, but frameworks for reflection on their own paths. It’s for anyone who feels their career, their faith, and their inner life aren’t separate journeys, but threads of a single, complex tapestry. Tune in for discussions that are as practical as they are spiritual, always grounded in the real-world application of ideas that can transform both your work and your soul.
