On the show this week is Peloton Instructor Kirsten Ferguson. Once entrenched in the NFL's corporate world, Kirsten turned to fitness during a challenging journey to motherhood. Today, she's both a mother and a popular Peloton tread instructor, drawing on both her personal struggles and her passion for fitness. She’s inspired so many athletes to go farther than they ever thought they could and is running her very first marathon when she toes the starting line at the TCS New York City Marathon on November 3. Find out how she overcame imposter syndrome to become one of the most sought-after instructors at Peloton and what she’s learned about herself during months of marathon training. And this week’s Member Moment features Joel Kaufman who is part of this year’s Team Inspire. Since 2015, Joel has raised over $150,000 for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society in honor of loved ones battling blood cancers.
