      Answer Example

      "I used to want to be a yoga teacher, but when I started learning more about the benefits of cardio and weight training, I decided to pursue my career in personal training. I think I will still get my yoga training certification to use with my clients, but I want to continue to focus on growing my client base as a trainer."
