HAPPY FRIDAY!!!

There is one particular topic that everyone would tell me is "normal" and that was missed periods. Okay, yeah you do not want to hear me talk about periods but I talk about the female athlete triad. We go in depth about periods, fueling our bodies and the importance of strength training especially for women as we get older.

Stay tuned for an exciting announcement coming next week!!!!!

Happy Friday!!!

I catch you up on life and why it's been a busy last few weeks. I think deep dive into athlete ego. If you are a former athlete who feels they can't hire a personal trainer because they know it all or they will figure it out.. then this podcast is for you. I talk about my experience and what lead me to hiring a personal trainer and the benefits of it. I talk bout my mindset of finally caving into having a personal trainer.. trust me.. it wasn't an easy road.

So drop the EGO, come learn and think about where your life could be with a little more accountability, community and mindset shift.

Let's do the damn thing together!

Happy Friiiiidayyy!!! In a world where quick fixes and overnight transformations are all the rage, it's crucial to separate fact from fiction when it comes to our health. I dissect the allure of fad diets, understand the factors that make them so popular, and shed light on the potential dangers they hide beneath their promises.

From low-carb diets to juice cleanses, we'll explore the various types of fad diets that have captivated the masses. But that's not all – I take a closer look at the health risks and concerns associated with these diets, including nutritional deficiencies, metabolic damage, and their impact on mental well-being.

I finish the podcast by talking specifically about WHOLE-30 diet and why I see benefits but also see risks. I give you my opinion on if I think it is worth the hype or not.
