Meet Evelyn Franklin, a vibrant and inspiring fitness professional from Life Time in Walnut Creek, CA, whose journey from childhood dance classes to the high-paced world of hospitality eventually led her to her true calling as a personal Trainer and Pilates Instructor. In this episode, Evelyn shares how her background shaped her understanding of discipline, joy, and resilience—key ingredients in the sustainable approach she now brings to fitness. Her energy is contagious, and her insights may just reshape how you think about forming healthy habits.

Evelyn’s philosophy centers around the power of small, consistent changes over drastic transformations. Rather than promoting quick fixes, she champions the idea of “small additions instead of big changes,” a mantra that surfaces repeatedly throughout our conversation. From a simple 15-minute weekly meal prep routine to building better food relationships rooted in energy and mood awareness, Evelyn shows how manageable tweaks can lead to long-term success without the overwhelm.

For anyone feeling stuck or unsure of where to begin, Evelyn offers practical, heartfelt guidance: start with community and connection. Whether it’s joining a gym, finding a coach, listening to a podcast, or partnering with friends, she reminds us that support is key. Her stories of running, practicing Kung Fu, and embracing Pilates highlight a playful, intuitive approach to movement—one that honors your body’s evolving needs. Evelyn leaves us with a powerful message: progress, not perfection, is what builds a truly sustainable and joyful path to wellness.

Speaker 1:

So, as I announced a couple of weeks ago, my podcast was going to take a different direction, and I'm so excited to get to interview some of the people that I am so blessed to work with at Lifetime. I've talked about before that I teach fitness and yoga classes at Lifetime in Walnut Creek, california, and I have so many amazing people that I work with, and I felt like I really wanted to showcase what they're doing, because they're taking a very not a different approach, but I think it's so important to have many different aspects and many different approaches to both fitness and wellness and nutrition and just your best life. And so I'm going to be. This is the beginning of a series of interviews with people that I work with, that I am so honored to work with and allow you to be able to expose, be exposed to so many more people who have so many different ways of looking at eating and fitness and all the things that we talk about here on the podcast all the time. So I am honored to be interviewing for the first time uh, my time my wonderful colleague and friend, evelyn Franklin.

Speaker 1:

Evelyn, welcome to the podcast. And so today we're going to talk a little bit about Evelyn's story, about how she got into fitness, and I have to tell you all she is amazing. So from when? The first day I think it was the first day that we ran into each other at the club? Our club had just opened and all I know was she just said, hey, beautiful. And I was like I love you, but she is one of those people that you see, and she just lights up a room and everyone here loves her. So I again, I'm so honored to have her. So, welcome to the podcast.

Speaker 1:

Thank you for having me. Absolutely. I'm honored to be here with you Absolutely. So, if you can tell the audience and share with everyone, how did you start out in fitness? What was your journey like?

Speaker 2:

Okay, so I think that fitness has been the main variable in my life ever since I can't remember. Uh, I remember going with my mom to aerobics class. You know, like there's no babysitter, there's no such thing as danny so my mom would take me with her to. You know, like small it was like women's clubs back in the days, and then that was staff class and aerobics and there were some machines there, but um, um, it was always in my life. And then from a young age, I started dancing like brazilian folklore, like frevo maracatu, so that was a big part of my life. It was, uh, dancing um samba, all of that good stuff, and I started just finding my way around the gym and I started actually working out like around 14, 15 years old. So that's one thing that has always been in my life, like a variable that has always been there, right?

Speaker 1:

And is this the only? Is fitness kind of the only career, the career you've chosen as an adult? Or did you do other things, were you in corporate and then you came back to fitness?

Speaker 2:

This is actually so interesting. I was just reflecting about that the other day. I always knew that I wanted to be in fitness and I had had like a couple of jobs here and there. Either it was like doing Zumba or small, oh my.

Speaker 1:

God, you know, your Zumba would be amazing.

Speaker 2:

One hour or three hours a week because I always had so much fun with it. But when I moved to the States, my first job job and you are from Brazil, I'm from Brazil, born and raised I moved at 16 years old, but I have always been around people, right, and I did go into the restaurant industry for um for a long, long time. It was like my, my main um, you know, source of income. I like I served into restaurants or bartender. I ended up going to school for hospitality and tourism management. So I went to sub-nationals state um was always hospitality, has always been hospitality um.

Speaker 2:

And then after covid well, I think a little bit before COVID, that's when the shift changed to full-time fitness, right, I was like, okay, that's that's what I'm going to do. I know that I want to be around people, but what is that that I'm going to deliver to them? For a long time was a food, beverages, entertainment, but that's exactly what I do. But I just provide with them with exercise and nutrition and you know, yeah, she is entertaining, that's exactly what I do. But I just provide with them with exercise and nutrition and you know she is entertaining, that's for sure. You gotta have fun, life gotta be fun, so yeah. So I finally found what I was supposed to be, and it feels really good.

Speaker 1:

Oh, that's awesome. So, when it comes to cause, I know I've seen if you don't follow, you can follow Evelyn Brazilian baby, and I will put. If you don't follow, you can follow um Evelyn, uh, brazilian baby, and I will put that on um in the show notes uh, her Instagram handle. But she does some amazing reels with her food prep, and so I would love to hear about your weekly food prep, like what you do to prep your meals, because she's here all the time at the club. She works all the time, so what, but? But she also has one but um, so what? Do you, what you know, kind of walk us through what your philosophy is for yourself and what you kind of impart with your clients when it comes to your nutrition and that type?

Speaker 2:

of thing, yeah, so that's definitely a puzzle piece that I love to share because I think it's extremely important, right To uh, just the way that I see it is, I have a connection with my, with my food, my fuel, what is going to give me the energy that I need for just life period, right? Um? So I think about six to seven years ago I was, um, yeah, about like when I was 30, that's when I really connected, when I made that connection with how do I feel, right, when I do proper, my body was good nutrition, and that's when it clicked and I started to just really pay attention to what I was putting into my body and the long-term effect of it. Right, because I mean all of us suffer with some kind of emotion, really, right, yeah, I mean it can be like a chronic, where you're there for a long time, or it can be a day or two or a week or whatever, right, right.

Speaker 2:

So for me, it's being prepared is just number one. It's just you're prepared, right, like there are a lot of things in life that we don't have control over. Right, and just having control over where you're going to feel your body, it's so important. And one thing that I wish for everyone is to put a little more time into that, because it pays off on a long term Right and we always have time to do so many other things in life.

Speaker 2:

I hate to say social media, but it's true. I mean, you know, if we put like 15 minutes and that's what I always practice with my clients it's like let's just think for 15 minutes and I do a lot of practice together with them it's like what are we going to do this week, what's our goal for this week with them? It's like what are we going to do this week, what's our goal for this week? And I don't like to tell my clients what to do. If you're my client, you know that I would say listen, you're a grown ass. I'm here to guide you to what I think would be beneficial for you, but you make your own decisions and just giving people that freedom it already feels good. Because who wants to be taught what to do?

Speaker 1:

Nobody exactly right, exactly well, and that's the whole thing. When it comes to behavior change, when people don't feel like they have had a say in it and it's their decision, if they're just looking to you to be like, well, tell me what to do, then you're the one who gets the blame when it doesn't go correct. So it's like that's not our, that's not our jobs as coaches to to tell people what to do. It's more. It's more to let them know, spark them to know the answers, because we just were talking, we all know the answers, right, it's within us.

Speaker 2:

Yeah. So, um, I, you know, I decided to, you know, like, really pay more attention, and really I grasped the idea of, like, having a relationship with my food right. So for me it's almost therapeutic to think about okay, what am I going to do this week? Number one do I need a like, do I need a lot of energy, like what? What does my week look like? And just like, plan accordingly. And, um, that's how, when I started to feel so much better when I had my lunch with me, versus like I'm scrambling right now, what am I going to get for lunch, and then you start making bad decisions or, you know, decisions that I'm not going to be, you know, happy with with the outcome, because I still have to work five more hours and what I ate is not sitting good with me, and then that's going to affect my performance. So it's a little snowball that I start observing and I love to share that with people because, um, it's not talked about it, right, you know it's, it's all talked about, and I think that it's.

Speaker 1:

I think that what you said is so true. We have time to do so many other stupid things and if we really we have the time, we just don't make the time. That's right, and so it's. It has to be. If it's really a priority, if you really want to see the progress you have it's and again, it's dependent on each person. Each person gets to make that choice. But just that food prep piece to be able to go home, or to be able to have it at work or go home and be like I don't have to think about.

Speaker 1:

I know exactly what I'm going to do and I'm not distracted by the other things at home that are going to pull me off, that's right, and not get stressed out or anxious, right, because many times I'm like I'm anxious.

Speaker 2:

What am I stressed out? Or anxious? Right? Because many times I'm like I'm anxious what am I going to make for dinner? Oh, my god, what I'm going to make for dinner, what am I going to do I have to also finish out the project and I have to do this and what, what's going to be for dinner? Right, and then it becomes the last thing you're going to think about, because this is so much more important, but knowing that if you fill yourself with good food, you're going to have great energy to then proceed with the projects that you're going to do.

Speaker 2:

So that's when something clicked for me and I said you know what I need to just take care of that piece of my life and take care of nutrition and share that with people. Because, again, it's not talked about. It's not something that our parents talked to us, you know, like, more, like directly, seriously, in a seriously manner, because they were scrambling to like to get us dinner, exactly, you know. So it's something that we're so used to. It's like we don't know, so we don't know, we don't know. And that's when we come right and then we kind of like explore that.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, so what does your food prep look like?

Speaker 2:

okay, I think that's what. That's what she asked me to the.

Speaker 1:

I just went everywhere in the franklin. I love that in the franklin, in the Franklin house.

Speaker 2:

So um, easy stuff, right, Like things that they're, they're, they're very dynamic and I can just like pop quick things together. So I decided where my proteins are going to be for the week. So I pick uh, you know, for proteins, then more than one.

Speaker 1:

Yes, Okay, yeah, I would think to me. It'd be like oh my gosh, I don't want to have the same thing every every day. It's like third meal.

Speaker 2:

It'd be like oh my gosh, I don't want the same thing every every day.

Speaker 1:

It's like third meal. I'd be like, okay, forget it absolutely so.

Speaker 2:

My family's very spoiled so I do uh, I do meal prep our lunches and snacks, but dinner I make dinner fresh every night, but dinner is like 30 minutes for me. I'm so just used to my routine. So basically I have a protein and then I go from there Like I go for okay. So I go like today I want to be, I want to do like some, like some tacos or whatever. So I have my protein, I get my starches, I get my vegetables and I just go for that. Um, I plan it out.

Speaker 1:

I think that's the most important thing you plan out, kind of have an idea, and so you make sure you have the ingredients.

Speaker 2:

That's right, I plan it out. Okay. Sundays are my day off where I'm just like I do all my thinking for the week in front of me, because planning is everything it's. I mean, it's never going to go according to the plan, right, right. But if you have your meals planned, there's already half of the battle, right? So I have my vegetables. I have. I always make sure that I always include a lot of colors, fruits. We do a lot of salads at nighttime like fun stuff with fruits and vegetables, right, right. So, um, yeah, I just plan ahead, okay.

Speaker 1:

Honestly, planning is the key.

Speaker 2:

This is what coach Evelyn is saying, yeah, and it doesn't have to be too long, just like quick 20, 15 minutes and just think about where you're going. What are you going to feel? Your body, how do you want to feel this week? You don't feel great. You don't feel great, right, yeah, let's fill our water with good stuff?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, exactly. So when you, um, how do you, how do you deal with, or how do you help and assist a client? That that struggle, I think most people at one time actually everyone struggles with motivation. So what would you, how, how? For anybody out there who's like, oh gosh, that sounds really great, but I just like, yeah, I just don't feel like I need, I need a kick in the butt, I need something, but I just but, but I just can't. I don't know where to start, I don't know.

Speaker 2:

I don't know how to get motivated, absolutely so I, over the years, I have found that small, um, small additions I don't like to use the word change too much because it already sounds kind of you know, right, but like what are pieces that we can add and what are some things that we can minimize? Right, so if he starts with just the breakfast piece of it, let's just start with breakfast, right? You know, like one meal at a time. Or, if it's, if it's the lunch, that they're, you know, struggling with just just getting the that piece and bringing lunch to work because work you they're, you know, struggling with just getting that piece and bringing lunch to work Because work you can have, you know, like temptations because there's all kinds of stuff.

Speaker 2:

So it's like one thing at a time For some of my clients. I start with exercise first and just speak with them about nutrition before I even go there, right, because them showing up and working out is already better than they were doing before, right, and then from there, you know, just presenting them with the idea and kind of talking about a couple of times, you know we almost becomes like their idea, right, because we're so you know we're brainstorming about it together, ask them questions and kind of, you know, let them explore that idea, right, right. So it's almost like you know I present the idea to them and they come back in when they're ready, right, exactly. You know what I?

Speaker 1:

mean yeah, exactly so. So for you it's not when you when somebody, when somebody you do take on a new client, is it especially here at the club but in, and I'm not sure if you train privately, but but when you take somebody on, you let them determine, like we're going for fitness, fitness is the, if it's the focus first, and then maybe nutrition comes in. But you kind of let, I mean, I would imagine I think there'd be a great segue segue if, like, they come in, they're like oh, I really don't feel like doing, like, oh, what'd you eat today? And then that just kind of, you know, kind of is the, is the catalyst to bring that conversation.

Speaker 2:

Correct. Okay, um, for me, the clients that I have that have shown the most success and adherence to the program are the ones that it's it's a natural change, right? I, some clients, they come in they're like I'm so ready, I'm so ready, I want to go from zero to 10. And that's the ones that usually don't last too long because it's too much, too much at once. So just from them walking in and making the decision that they're ready to start training, that's huge. So I kind of just observe them and I let them know.

Speaker 2:

You know, I'm like nutrition and supplements are a huge part of this, together with sleep, right, low stress, right. And let's go to our first week. We start. I'm getting to know you, you're getting to know me, and slowly we're going to start implementing changes, especially if it doesn't come from them immediately, if they come from them where they're like tell me what to do, I'll let them know. Listen, I'm going to give you ideas and we're going to go from there. But I, in my opinion, a small natural, um, not change, but like addition to the new things that I want to put into their lives is more it's real than something that is just done out of, out. Of you know right away.

Speaker 1:

So. So for those people out there that are thinking that when they do something they have to make these big zero to 100 changes, You're saying, definitely, you want it, you want it to be gradual. So y'all, when somebody comes in and says you wouldn't need to change your whole life, that's when you need to say maybe you're not the person for me.

Speaker 2:

Um and given right. I do also respect every other style of training, every other style of anything. That's just how I operate and I think the body responds well to that. You know, versus something that is shocking, and then you just do it for a couple of months, six months, and then you go back to your old habits. I'd like to install new habits, right.

Speaker 1:

Like a new lifestyle. It takes time.

Speaker 2:

You have to give yourself a brace right. You have you're going to fall a couple of times until you're it becomes your decision. You know what actually, I feel better if I do this. I done it a few times and I made errors and I want to stick with this because it's better for me. Exactly that's when it sticks.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, exactly what has been the most rewarding experience that's happened with with a client and somebody you know, somebody who's just made you know either a change or you've just seen them. You know. Even, maybe it's not even a physical, maybe it's not so much a physical change, but it's an emotional or a deeper change within themselves.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I have many wonderful, wonderful stories regarding that, but I think one of the stories is really stays with me. It was one of my clients. He had a car accident, okay, and he was still. He probably, you know, wouldn't be able to walk again and there are a lot of activities in his life that will be restricted.

Speaker 2:

And, um, I'm very I'm a big believer on positive thinking, right, right, that's like the body responds well to it. Um, and there are many times that things are told to you and that can be anything. Right, you start believing it. Right, you start believing it. It can be with anything like mine is so powerful, so powerful, and he is just this beautiful soul. He has a beautiful wife uh, what, I also trained her and and two beautiful children, and he was told that he would. And he is just this beautiful soul. He has a beautiful wife I also trained her and two beautiful children, and he was told that he would be very limited.

Speaker 2:

And he showed up to his workouts and he had the most beautiful insight with himself and his body. He really wanted to make a change for himself and we got him into a beautiful place where he's back to work. Now he's doing his activities. He, he had a new baby that, you know, it was just like life-changing for for him, right. So that was very rewarding for me, to just like be able to guide him in the right direction, right. Um, he didn't know how. I don't think he knows how much he gave it to me as well, cause, you know, there was a great exchange. It was seeing like he starting to just progress within his health and within his family, within himself, right, but that was a that was a great great experience for sure, so fun.

Speaker 1:

So you also I know there's another aspect of you that you enjoy. I mean she doesn't even doesn't only just you know train people, but she does. She does all this stuff as well, and so you just recently participated in, you've done, two fitness fitness competitions, and so you know, share us, share, share. You know share with my audience a little bit about the, the experiences, things that you've done and what you got out of that and then how you were able to kind of share that with your clients as well.

Speaker 2:

Absolutely. I have always been very active, right, and I love to try different things and, in my opinion, the body try different things and I, in my opinion, um, the body likes different things. The body likes to be exposed to, to, you know, like different activities and things like that Um. And so I have ran, um, I was a runner for a while. I ran some um, some races. Uh, I practiced Kung Fu for two years. I know it was on my bucket list and through covid I decided to. But, uh, do kung fu um, recently we have done like a high rocks and a deca race too.

Speaker 2:

And uh, for me, more than just like your placement, like where you end up, into that, that competition, it's just like the, the, the good feeling of completing something and training for something and being part of a community. So I think it's really good for the heart, it's really good to just create a goal within for yourself. So I really enjoy those. I mean, I don't get too crazy on those just because it can be like a lot of stress in the body. That's another thing too, right, we talk about exercise and we cannot forget exercise is stress on the body, especially the things where you do Right. So I, I have a thyroid diagnosis that I that I've been, you know, like dealing with for a while. It's a real thing and I have found that actually, like those kinds of activities, it affects directly with my thyroid because the stress in the body so, um, yeah, I love being challenged and getting my body to do things that they're so amazing that you train for and sometimes you don't know you can, but also just being aware that too much of one thing can be too much Right. So, like, mixing things up it's always like the best, the best idea, I think, what's your ideal workout. So that's how I got into Pilates.

Speaker 2:

Okay, that's right, y'all, pil y'all. Yeah, we talked about pilates, that's right. So that's my the latest for me. I've been certified for about a year now and it was life-changing for me. Um, I'm guilty of it myself like stretching, flexibility, all kinds of like mobility work I I wasn't really good at um, we try our best but you know, especially with our professions, we take care of so many people that sometimes we, you know, yeah. So when I found Pilates, it was best of both worlds. I was having like the mobility that I needed, but also with some strength and um, I was able to tap on parts of my body that I wasn't you know, I wasn't, I'm not even aware of, so that changed a lot to all what I do on a daily basis.

Speaker 2:

And especially because our body changes as we get older. You know things change, our hormones are changing, you know it's everything. It's just in like forever changing within, especially for women, yeah yeah. So with Pilates I found a calm in the nervous system, right, because it's a slower pace. You're not like banging Well, sometimes. Sometimes you're not banging Pilates session, but it's more of like elongation of the body. It's more of like a connection that you get, especially with your powerhouse, where everything lives, right. So I was able to just really tap deep into like how my body really feels. I'm also in with nutrition. It's like getting more in touch within yourself. That is so important, right, we don't take enough time for that.

Speaker 1:

No, yeah, so. So that leads me to my next question did I answer your question. You did, I did a lot of times.

Speaker 2:

Um oh no. You asked me that the perfect workout. Yeah, mixture, the mixture of it, yeah, it's like you have to have your cardio right, have to have the cardio.

Speaker 1:

I run into her all the time coming back from a run.

Speaker 2:

She's out outside.

Speaker 1:

I post on Instagram for a run, yeah.

Speaker 2:

Outside run. I love, you know, cardio. I love going outside Again. It's like the nervous system. Running is already so stressful and going outside and seeing things makes it a little more enjoyable for me. Sight and seeing things makes it a little more enjoyable for me. Definitely, lifting right, especially for as a woman, to to prevent or help with bone density, is super important, and I love Pilates, so cardio little lifting and Pilates Perfect.

Speaker 1:

Absolutely what would be a piece of advice that you would give to someone who wants to make a change but it's just having a hard time getting started. What would you say would be the, the, the, the Evelyn, the coach, evelyn, you know. Piece of advice.

Speaker 2:

I would say look for others. They're doing the same thing you're doing. Okay, like, sometimes doing something alone is hard, it's really hard, listening to podcasts of people talking about it, talking to a friend finding a gym or facility, a studio that you feel that they, you know, like comfortable, right, yeah, because one thing is like joining a gym, but then you're like, what am I even doing here? Outsource coaches, people that are, you know, going to be able to guide you in the right direction, and just know that health and housing is an investment. Right, it's a total investment. Sometimes you're like, oh my God, you know money's tight, you know I can't afford this, I can't afford this, I can't afford that, but sometimes investing in your health it's just life-changing. Like, maybe you do not need that first, maybe you do not need that, right, it's for real, it's a real thing and those things make you feel better for a little bit, but then it's, you know, going to the root of the problem.

Speaker 2:

Sometimes you don't have all the answers. You have to outsource the answers and there are people out there that can help. So, just, you know, looking for, like, looking for help and and asking questions and and and really talking about things that are uncomfortable, you know being open about. Like what do I really need Right what? What is like what? What is what is my heart telling me that I need right now? It's, it's, you know it's helping with nutrition. Well, let's take care of that. But it can be overwhelming sometimes. Like what do I even start? Yeah, yeah. So long story short. I would say just look for help, look for answers and outsource and get out there, talk about it. You know it's okay. It's okay, everybody struggles Right.

Speaker 1:

Everybody struggles Right, everybody struggles so so how could people connect with you?

Speaker 2:

How do you connect with me? You can. I'll find you an Instagram here at the club. You can connect with me. Yes, it's Brazilian, bb. Bb is my Instagram. It's a great way to connect with me. I'm always up for chatting and just talking and all that good stuff I'm super passionate about, like what I do for a living. I feel very fortunate to be able to help you, know and listen, and sometimes even having people talking out loud. They can answer their own questions. Right, just like someone that you can just like talk and brainstorm. Someone that's not judgmental. Right, right, just like someone that you can just like talk and brainstorm. Someone that's not judgmental. Right, like somebody that's just going to be like a soundboard that you can just be. Yeah, just be. So, yeah, resilient BB. I think that's the best way to go about it. It's like Instagram, so absolutely.

Speaker 1:

Absolutely Well. Thank you, my friend. Thank you so much. Yeah, so fun. Thanks so much for being here, my friend. Thank you so much for being here. Yeah, so fun. Thank you so much for being here. And y'all. I hope that you got amazing insights out of this, because I think Evelyn dropped so many things that were so important. I think the thing that I loved the most was just the small, that piece of planning. I used to have a business coach that said what gets planned is what gets done, and so if you don't plan a thing, nothing's going to get done. And it doesn't have to be 100%, no Right, just small. I love that, like the 15, one meal at a time. If you've got your breakfast style, then great. If lunch is the problem, just deal with lunch, but don't try and don't try to make these vast, massive changes and I'll know that I talk about that all the time. That's something that that just and that just sets us back. So, um, yeah, so many.
