Broads: The Bold & Badass Fitness Podcast for Women

74: Hannah Eden : The Dark Side of Success: Why Reaching Your Goals Feels… Off


Listen Later

Ever set a massive goal, push yourself to the limit, and then suddenly feel… lost when it’s over? You’re not imagining it, the post-goal blues are real, and they can hit harder than you expect.

In this episode of the Broads Podcast, I sit down with Hannah Eden, fitness coach, entrepreneur, and all-around powerhouse, to talk about what really happens after you achieve something huge, like completing an Ironman just months after giving birth. She opens up about the dopamine crash, identity shifts, and mental struggles that followed, and how she pulled herself out of it.

We’re diving into the science behind why high-achievers often feel empty after big wins and what you can do to stay grounded and fulfilled. Hannah shares how she rebuilt herself, physically and mentally, through strength training, creatine, cold plunges, and contrast therapy. Plus, we get into the importance of muscle as we age, and why staying strong isn’t just about aesthetics, it’s about longevity, resilience, and overall health.

Hannah Eden is a fitness coach, entrepreneur, and ultra-endurance athlete known for her high-energy training style and no-BS approach to fitness. From bodybuilding to Ironmans, she’s pushed her limits in every way, most recently completing a full Ironman just months after giving birth. 

If you’ve ever felt like you’re constantly chasing the next big thing just to feel something, or if you want to build a fitness routine that fuels both your body and mind, this episode is for you.
