In this episode, I sit down with trainer and Aligned Movement founder Aubree Mitchell, whose story is a powerful reminder that your past doesn’t get to decide your future.

We met as strangers sharing a cabin in the woods at Jesse Itzler's RunningMan Festival — and within hours, we were talking about grief, trauma, and the messy, beautiful work of choosing a different life.

In this conversation, Aubree opens up about growing up in a chaotic home, losing loved ones as a teenager, coping through blackout drinking, and surviving multiple instances of sexual assault. She shares candidly how years of numbing eventually led her to a breaking point — and how prayer, discipline, and movement became the anchors that helped her rebuild from the inside out.

We also get into the practical side: the methodology behind her Align Movement app, why she believes the “secret of your future is hidden in your daily routine,” and how functional, 30-minute workouts can support longevity, self-trust, and joy.
