Broads: The Bold & Badass Fitness Podcast for Women

91: 36 Lessons I’ve Learned in 36 Years


Listen Later

Ever feel like you should have it all figured out by now—but you secretly don’t? Same. In this episode, I’m celebrating 36 trips around the sun by sharing 36 lessons that have changed how I train, how I show up, and how I treat myself (inside and out).

We’re talking about the pressure to shrink yourself and be “less,” why discipline beats motivation every time, and how lifting weights transformed my confidence way more than chasing aesthetics ever did.

I also get into the messy stuff: setting boundaries, choosing rest, and learning to love your body before it hits your “goal.”

If you’ve ever felt stuck, behind, or like everyone else has life figured out—this episode is your permission slip to evolve, to expand, and to take up space at any age.

Because aging isn’t the end of anything. It’s the beginning of becoming who you really are.

I Also Discuss:

(01:00) – Why turning 36 feels weird and exciting

(05:14) – Shrinking yourself doesn’t keep you safe

(11:12) – Your body is not your resume

(16:13) – Rest is productive—period

(22:45) – Lifting weights changed everything
