  • EP 87 -"Embrace The Suck" - Fitspo Motivation Sayings that are Anything But
    Tune in as we kick off a series I like to call “Fitness Motivation Sayings that are Anything But”. This week we’re exploring “embrace the suck”. Like most of the fitspo mantras, embrace the suck is something that’s said in an attempt to motivate us to get the work done. But is it really motivating? I don’t think so. Saying something like this to yourself, might result in you completing the workout… but it only reinforces the belief that exercise DOES suck, and that it HAS to...

  • EP 86- Starting Fall with a Renewed Mission and Vision
    I’m back from my summer podcasting break, and though I was quiet, lots has been happening behind the scenes. In this episode, I share a little update about what I’ve been up to personally and professionally over the summer months. During my time away, I took time to reflect and evaluate on my business and I feel a renewed sense of passion and vision going forward. Now, more than ever, I’m aware of just how many people the fitness industry leaves behind, and I’m on a mission to change th...

  • EP 85 - The Joy of Ultra Running - Trail Sisters' Story
    Everyone has a different definition of what joyful movement means to them. On this episode, we are joined by four of my dear friends who recently participated in an ultra trail marathon, where they all ran more than 50 km, overnight, through a bush. And they LIKED it (I just cannot imagine!) And while each of them had their low points during the race, they all came out smiling. Their joy for the sport is palpable, and infectious. Tune in to hear their inspiring stories where they ...

  • REPLAY - EP 50- Gratitude: the Gateway to Joy
    Enjoy this replay from The Joyful Movement Show "greatest hits". “Joyful” movement doesn’t mean that every time we exercise it’s a nirvana-like state of bliss (although it is nice when that happens occasionally). Rather, it’s a way of engaging with our body that’s kind, respectful and intuitive. It’s a knowing that whatever we do, whatever we have, who we ARE is enough, brought about by GRATITUDE Brene Brown says that gratitude is the key to a joyful life, and I believe the same holds ...

  • REPLAY - EP 62 - F*&! Joyful Movement
    If you’ve been struggling with the idea of “joyful” movement - this episode is for you. Whether you’ve been consciously trying to move away from the fitspo “no pain, no gain” mentality, or exercise has really never been something you’ve enjoyed - joyful movement can seem like a pie in the sky that’s only accessible to select people. It seems that as we reject the diet mentality that exercise needs to look a certain way and has to burn a certain number of calories or it’s not “en...

  • REPLAY - EP 56 - How to Eat Normally Part 4: From Lifelong Dieter to Intuitive Eater - Stacey's Story
    Enjoy this replay from the JMS Greatest Hits:) This week we’re chatting with Stacey who from her early teens until her late 30’s was either always on a diet or preparing for the next one. She shares how she thought that restricting food worked, because she’d always experience short term weight loss, but then would always give up and gain the weight back - and thought that SHE had failed. When Stacey realized it wasn’t her fault, and that in fact 95% of diets don’t work long term,...

  • REPLAY - EP 24 -All or Nothing Thinking: The Motivation Killer - Zara's Story
    All or Nothing thinking abounds in the fitness industry. Effective but erroneous marketing leads us to believe that we must workout hard for an hour 5 days a week or there’s no point; that we must sweat and be sore or we did it wrong; that we must lift the weights, do the cardio, and we must do it fast, heavy and with intensity…. Otherwise we’ll never get healthy. I’ve met countless women who feel so stuck because they believe they have to do it all and do it perfectly, and when they ca...

  • REPLAY - EP 27 - What if there's NO Joy in ANY Movement -Kathy's Story
    For some, joyful movement can feel out of reach. Our history with sports, fitness, gyms and dieting can greatly influence our relationship with movement and our motivation to exercise. I’ll often hear from people “I don’t even know where to start. I can’t think of one type of movement I’d enjoy”. Often at the root of this concern is a belief that the purpose of movement is to lose or control our weight. That was the experience of our guest on today’s show. Kathy ...

  • EP 84 - Hate Exercise? Let's Talk!
    Hate exercise, but want to feel better in your body? You’re not alone. There are a lot of women who want to experience the benefits of movement, who want to get moving, who know they’d feel better if they did but just CAN’T because they dread the thought of working out, or hate exercise or have injuries, so they feel stuck, with nowhere to turn. As a professional in an industry that is all about health and well being, I feel it's my duty to listen, learn and do better to create safe spa...

  • EP 83 - Creating Confidence through Movement - Shauna's Story
    On this episode, we are joined by Shauna Clark - mom of 4, kindergarten teacher and co-author of the book “Momming HARD”. Shauna shares how movement, running specifically, has improved her mental wellbeing and renewed her sense of self since becoming a mom. And yet, she felt that her runs were depleting her precious energy. Though she enjoyed the activity and the time to herself, she felt “gassed” after and was frustrated by the struggle. While she knew that adding strength...
