What if your story could be the very thing that helps someone else heal? Rachel Daugherty, better known on Instagram as BootyAndBrains, joins this episode to talk about turning pain into purpose, movement into medicine, and why healing your body and brain doesn’t have to be hard. From losing her mom to Alzheimer’s to building a platform around brain health, humor, and fitness, Rachel shares how she transformed grief into impact one honest post, one pushup, and one laugh at a time. Together, she and Daffney discuss what it looks like to care for someone you have a complicated relationship with, why women need to stop waiting for the “perfect time” to take care of themselves, and how simple bite-size movement can change your life. If you’ve ever said, “I’ll start when things calm down,” or felt stuck in survival mode, this one’s your reminder: IT MATTERS. You matter. And you don’t have to do it perfectly. You just have to start.
