🏆 From Transformation to Triumph | Chicago Pro 1st Place Win – Kate McKay IFBB Pro

Hi, I’m Kate McKay—IFBB Pro, coach, speaker, and author.

On July 18th, I stepped onto the stage at my first professional bodybuilding show—the Chicago Pro—and walked away with 1st place.

But this wasn’t just about the trophy. It was about the shift, the growth, and the deep personal transformation behind it.

In this video, I share:

🌀 The Shift – How I trained not from pressure, but from purpose.

🌀 The Emotion – Why this moment hit me differently, especially when I saw my son in the audience.

🌀 What’s Next – Why I’m choosing an intentional off-season and how I’m living life fully—on and off the stage.

This journey is for anyone who’s ever wondered, "Is it too late for me?"

The answer is: It’s not.

You don’t need permission—you need a decision.

Whether you’re chasing a fitness goal, rebuilding your life, or just trying to believe in yourself again—I hope this inspires you to show up fully, unapologetically, and with peaceful power.
