In this inspiring episode, we sit down with Melanie, a vegan powerlifter whose past year has been marked by massive life changes, personal growth, and record-setting strength.

She opens up about navigating divorce, rebuilding her life, discovering the power of community, and transforming her approach to training and mindset.

With coaching insights from Sawyer and thoughtful questions from Giacomo, Melanie shares how she learned to trust herself, adapt through adversity, and ultimately achieve regional records in USA Powerlifting.
