If you’ve ever felt stuck in a cycle of endless cardio, calorie counting, and chasing weight loss, this episode is your wake-up call to explore strength training.

For years, I believed that fitness meant shrinking—burning calories, eating less, and doing endless cardio to stay “small.” But everything changed when I walked into a CrossFit gym for the first time. 

In this episode, I’m telling the story about how strength training completely transformed my mindset, about fitness, food and the way I show up for myself. 

We’ll talk about the benefits of strength training, why so many women are afraid to lift, and how strength training for women is the key to unlocking real confidence and progress.

If you’ve ever wondered how to start strength training, or felt intimidated by the weights section of the gym, this one’s for you.

Tune in to hear:

• (1:00) Why cardio isn’t the magic bullet for fitness we were all told it was.
• (4:00) How I went from cardio queen to CrossFit convert: Walking into a strength training gym was terrifying—but it also changed everything.
• (7:00) The unexpected benefits of strength training when it comes to my nutrition – turns out, I was massively under-eating without even realizing it…
• (10:30) If you’ve ever worried about getting “bulky” from strength training, we’re going to have a serious chat about the benefits of strength training and what really happens when you start lifting.
• (14:00) How strength training can change your entire mindset around  fitness, food and fueling your body. 

Strength training for beginners doesn’t have to feel overwhelming—you just have to take that first step. 

Whether you’re wondering how to start strength training, or just need a new perspective on fitness, food and how you move your body, this episode will help you break free from restrictive mindsets and embrace what your body is truly capable of.
