BELLA BOS; Prep without Sacrifice, College Life as a Competitor, Challenging Health Anxiety, Show Day Gone Wrong, Self-Belief
In today's episode, I sit down with IFBB Pro Bella Bos, a 23-year-old Canadian athlete who recently graduated from Queen's University and is now fully pursuing her bodybuilding and coaching career. Bella began competing in 2024, took a short but intentional offseason, and went on to earn her Pro card in 2025 at only her fourth show. Bella opens up about mindset, maturity, and the balance required to chase big goals while still living life fully. From navigating prep through university to defining her worth outside of placings, this episode is packed with wisdom from such a young but grounded athlete.
