In today’s episode of the DDC Podcast, I’m joined by a very special guest — my amazing client Lina 💚. Lina and I have been working together for the past 3 months, and her story is truly one to inspire. When she first came to me, she was feeling lost and stuck. She was already quite active, but despite all her effort, she wasn’t seeing the results she wanted — and that left her feeling frustrated and defeated.

Fast forward 3 months… and wow. We’ve built a strong foundation with her nutrition and training, she’s starting to see real results, and more importantly — she’s actually enjoying the process. Lina shares how her mindset has shifted, what’s changed in her routine, and why taking care of her body now is the best gift she could give to her future self. This one is real, raw, and full of golden takeaways — don’t miss it!

We're diving into why crunches alone won’t do the trick, the importance of nutrition, and how to focus on overall fat loss instead of spot reduction.

In today's episode of the DDC Podcast, I’m diving into why fitness is a marathon, not a sprint. One of the biggest mistakes women make is chasing speed and intensity—expecting instant results and feeling frustrated when progress takes time.

I’ll show you how to shift from a sprint mindset to a marathon mindset so you can stay consistent, build resilience, and stop feeling guilty when things don’t go as planned. This shift is the key to long-term success, sustainable progress, and a healthier relationship with fitness.

In today’s episode of the DDC Podcast, I dive into how your menstrual cycle impacts your training—from strength levels to energy fluctuations—and why understanding this can help you train smarter, not harder.

Too often, we push through workouts feeling frustrated when we’re not lifting as heavy or when our energy dips. But what if that’s just your hormones doing their thing?

I also break down the menstrual cycle into four phases, but in reality, there are just two: the follicular phase and the luteal phase. I divide the follicular phase into two parts to make it easier to understand how it affects our workouts.

Join me as I break down:

✅ How each phase of your cycle affects performance
✅ Why you’re stronger some weeks and exhausted in others
✅ How to adjust your workouts for better results & less frustration

Because when you work with your body, not against it, you get stronger, feel better, and make progress without burnout!

In today’s episode of the DDC Podcast, I discuss why worrying about the future, especially the weekend, is not serving you at all. Stressing about something that hasn't even happened yet only leads to poor choices and keeps you stuck in your progress.

Weekends can often be a struggle for many. I used to struggle with this for years, and so did many of my clients. But once you start stressing less and see weekends as part of your journey, things get a lot easier.
