I’m super excited to welcome my friend, Caitlin Mundy, onto the podcast today!

Caitlin Mundy is a NASM-certified personal trainer and macros coach. She is passionate about helping moms 35+ get in the BEST shape of their life, without giving up what they love, and gain more confidence in the process (I’m totally here for all of that!) 

In today’s conversation, Caitlin and I chat about the power of flexible coaching, emotional eating, and fitness freedom. We’ve both seen how vital it is to take a personalized approach when working with our clients. 

While we’re there to share our expertise and help guide them, it’s ultimately up to them to take ownership of their fitness journeys. We both LOVE seeing our clients have those ‘aha’ moments along the way, and realize they are in control of the outcome!  

We also dive into setting goals that aren’t *only* weight-loss focused, why macro tracking can be an incredible, non-restrictive tool that goes beyond ‘dieting’ or fat loss, the holistic benefits of building muscle and nourishing your body, and more.

Whether you’re looking to improve your fitness, redefine your relationship with food, or find inspiration to start a more sustainable health journey, I know you’re going to resonate with Caitlin’s story + all of the goodness packed into this episode!

In today’s episode, From Emotional Eating to Fitness Freedom, we cover:

• Caitlin’s journey from chronic, yo-yo dieter, to becoming a certified personal trainer and macros coach
• Why your goals should be more than weight-loss focused, and instead, set from a place of ‘wholeness’
• Why being in the ‘driver’s seat’ for your health & fitness is going to be more impactful, compared to having a coach tell you everything to do
• The power that comes from eating food that truly NOURISHES your body
• Realizing that macro tracking is a beneficial tool that goes way beyond you needing to be in a ‘calorie deficit’
• Why reaching your ‘goal weight’ may not *actually* leave you feeling happy and fulfilled like you thought
• Viewing your nutrition and overall health as a lifestyle change, vs. another ‘diet’ that you will cycle in and out of
• Why embracing failure is essential for personal growth + understanding that tracking progress is helpful for areas of improvement (not harmful)
