Feisty Women's Performance

Every woman deserves performance.

We have observed that there is A LOT of B.S. information out there for women coming from the fitness and health industries, which gets even worse as we age. Because of this, we saw the need to bring trusted information to women so we can feel and perform our best. 

The launch of the Women's Performance Podcast features host, Sara Gross, with three change-makers, movers, and shakers in the women's performance space - Dr. Stacy Sims, Selene Yeager, and Jamila Gale-Agans.

They discuss multiple topics around performance and dive deep in order to provide solid information and access to resources for active women, coaches, parents, race directors, and companies.

• Stacy Sims provides perspective on the biggest changes in her field of research, and what new directions she is seeing that will help women.
• Selene discusses changes she has seen in the fitness industry and media, and how she vets information when working on an article or looking for a guest on the "Hit Play Not Pause" podcast
• Jamila paints a picture of her time as a US Army Officer and the cultural assumptions she had to navigate in this "culture within a culture."

They also provided valuable roundtable insight on questions from both Sara and the live audience, including:

• What does it mean for you to focus on performance in your life? And, how has it changed through the years?
• What does it mean to continue to focus on performance as we age?
• How do history and culture affect our work, research, and performance?
• Why is it important to look at performance through a variety of lenses?
• What's the best advice you've received as a performance-minded individual?
• How do you make strength training fun?
• How do I know if I need a rest day, or if I'm just being lazy? (spoiler alert: you're NOT lazy)
• Do you train according to your cycles?
• What is your advice on recovery?

This is our time to learn, grow, and thrive. It’s not about standing on a podium (although some of us will); it’s about being able to do the things we love throughout our life.

We live in a world where sport was made for men.

Whether we're competing at the highest level or running a local 5k, we often feel like something is missing when it comes to getting the best from our bodies. That's because most of the research, product development, and cultural norms in sport are centered around men.

Getting the information you need to reach your goals shouldn't be so hard, and that's why Feisty CEO, Sara Gross, will cut the B.S. and find the information and trusted experts you need to get the best out of your body.

The Feisty Life is for active performance-minded women or for anyone who wants to know how women can get the best out of our bodies throughout our lives.

We know that women have largely been excluded from sports science, nutrition and medical studies- so how do we know what information actually applies to us?

In this podcast, we explore these questions and more.

Host Sara Gross, founder of Feisty Media, Ironman Triathlon Champion and PhD in Women’s History will chat with experts, athletes and people-in-the know in order to cut through the crap and get some answers.

Together we will learn new ways of thinking, doing and being our feistiest selves so we can all live full and active Feisty Lives.
