  • Fueling Former Athletes with Katie Spada

    In this episode, I talk about all things nutrition in life after sport with registered dietitian and nutrition coach, Katie Spada! Katie is one of the guest coaches who will be providing education and resources in my upcoming group coaching program, Former Athlete Fortitude. I admire her passion for helping former athletes optimize their diet while finding food freedom and coping with body changes in life after sport. She is an incredible coach, human, and honestly a warm ray of sunshine!

    We discuss:

    • Katie's background as an athlete, registered dietitian and coach
    • Some of the biggest challenges that former athletes face when it comes to nutrition
    • Why meal plans are not actually helping you with your nutrition habits
    • How enjoyment of food and eating "healthy" are not mutually exclusive
    • What you can expect to learn/gain from Katie in Former Athlete Fortitude
    • And more!

  • Former Athlete Fortitude

    Welcome back! This episode is dedicated to setting the stage for all future episodes by defining the terms “former athlete” and “fortitude.” I also dive into the difference between fortitude and toughness, and how you can build fortitude in the contexts of pain management and improving general health and well-being.

    In this episode you’ll hear about:

    • Who I’m talking about when I say I work with former athletes
    • The definition of fortitude, and how it differs from toughness
    • Why I think athletes should be taught fortitude over toughness
    • How to build fortitude and how it applies to the contexts of pain management and improving health and well-being
    • An upcoming opportunity for receiving support with building fortitude
    • And more!
