In this solo episode, I’m sharing my personal journey of how I balanced bodybuilding and physique goals with having a healthy, flexible relationship with food and training.

At first, finding that balance was really hard for me. I struggled with strict dieting, intense training, and the pressure to be perfect often feeling stuck between extremes. But over time, through trial and error, I’ve learned how to master that balance in a way that supports my goals and my lifestyle.

Here’s what I cover in this episode:

• How I shifted from “all or nothing” to “consistency over perfection”

• What balancing structure and flexibility actually looks like

• My current approach to tracking, training, and rest days

• The mindset shifts that helped me stop obsessing over food and still see results

Whether you’re working toward a specific physique goal or just trying to find your groove with fitness and food, this episode will give you perspective and permission to do it in a way that’s sustainable.
