118 | From Running Away to Running the Room: Adrian Wegeng-Frank on Small Business and Self-Reclamation [Meet the Babes Series]

Some women find their way back to themselves slowly, quietly, one honest decision at a time. Adrian Wigging Frank is one of them. She grew up learning to fight for herself and run when she needed to, and that running eventually took her somewhere she never expected: college athletics, marathon training, an Olympic dream, and then a blown Achilles that redirected everything. From there she built a career in personal training and gym management across LA, Denver, and eventually Durango, where she founded Yo Fitness and created something completely her own. But the studio was only part of the story. The other part was the deeper, quieter, more personal work she did on herself. Through Human Design, Gene Keys, relationship energetics, and some really honest reckoning with what she needed versus what she'd been settling for. She came out the other side of a difficult marriage, a difficult divorce, and a difficult chapter with a team she loves, a business that's thriving, and a life that finally feels like hers. That's the story we're telling today. What we're covering: Adrian's origin story -- growing up in Missouri, learning to protect herself, and how survival instinct became athletic drive that almost took her to the Olympics The pivot she didn't choose when her Achilles blew out, and how that redirection eventually led her to founding Yo! Fitness in Durango Being a 2/4 Emotional Projector and the Human Design and Gene Keys work that gave language to experiences she'd been living but couldn't fully articulate The coaching work we did together around relationship energetics, self-responsibility, and what it looks like to come home to yourself inside a relationship that ultimately couldn't grow with her How she knows now that the divorce was a win, and what her life and business look like on the other side of choosing herself completely Reclamation doesn't happen in one moment. It happens in every brave, honest choice to stop settling and start living as the woman you actually are. 📣 Connect with Adrian Wigging Frank: Yo!
