I thought I was teaching fat loss until I discovered this ...

STRONG WOMEN COMMUNITY + RESOURCES COACHING YOUTUBE Happy 4th of July, Fabulous Folks! 🇺🇸 I’ve been spending the past month deep diving the nervous system for my latest course: Strong, Lean & Sleeping Again: The Midlife Nervous System Reset. I expected to learn the newest strategies to “stress less” for health + fat loss. Instead, it ended up completely changing the way I think about why so many of us stay stuck. Why do our brains seem to be so good at learning what keeps us worried… and so...

Hey Fabulous Friends! I'm gonna cut straight to the point. Stop Guessing. If you've been trying to change your body (make it stronger, shed a little fat, get your lab-work to improve ...) and nothing seems to be helping, consider this ... The problem is you still think you need more motivation, more discipline and more cardio. You're stuck because you're missing a stepwise decision making framework. Tracking is a skill and it's much easier than you think. AND ... it's temporary. How this...

Hi Fabulous Reader! 2 underrated health upgrades women our age often miss: Short bursts of maximal effort (“sprint”) intervals Fiber from real food Why sprint intervals? Power is one of the first physical qualities we lose with age. Power helps us stay athletic, and better protected from falls and injury as we age. I’m not talking about hour-long HIIT classes. I mean ultra short 20 - 30 second bursts of max effort: bike sprints, rower sprints, battleropes, medball slams, etc. Click here for...

Hi Reader!A quick story about me. Let me know if you can relate. I grew up reading Seventeen, Bop, and Teen Vogue. Somewhere along the way, I became convinced of a narrative: that in order to feel attractive and accepted, my body needed to look a certain way. So in college, while teaching step aerobics, I’d literally calculate calories burned after every class. Because my brain genuinely believed I could "earn" food with exercise. Then I found weight lifting. In the late 90s and early 2000s,...

Hi Reader!The women who are actually happy with their health and physique, are doing what most aren’t: They’re dialed in to their psychology. The (often unconscious) beliefs driving their behavior. Most women who feel a gap between where they are and where they want to be, fall into two camps: ProcrastinationorBelieving they’re the exception I was both. Why? Because of how we’re beautifully created! We're not biologically wired to act today for a better—but uncertain—future. So we delay…...

Leaking urine is not normal. Crossing your legs when you sneeze or cough? Tinkling a little when jumping?👉Extremely common-YES. But normal? NO. It's a warning signal! I didn’t know that—and neither do most women. Here's another one: kegeling may actually be making it worse. Over half of women in the U.S. will deal with pelvic organ prolapse by 50— when muscles in the pelvis weaken and organs shift and bulge into the vaginal canal. Left unaddressed → leakage (urine and feces), even surgery....

Hi Reader!I’m excited to host a special lunchtime virtual session this Monday April 27 with my friend and pelvic floor physical therapist, Meghan Lisson. (Mom - if you are reading this, I hope you can make it! 😊)Here's a quick reality check I wish someone gave me sooner: Our ignored pelvic floor doesn't just “stay the same.” It usually gets worse. I went from occasional leaking…to not being able to sneeze or jump without it.To barely making it to the bathroom—even when my bladder wasn’t full....

I’m watching my 12-year-old’s flag football practice. Between drills, they play a fun game of Sharks and Minnows.His ukulele teacher does the same thing—candy at the end. This kind of stuff make the fundamentals feel doableso the kids keep showing up long enough to get good. No one sends kids to compete—or perform stage—on motivation alone. The women who actually improve their bodies and their bloodwork?They commit to the boring fundamentals. They think differently. They stop saying:“I’m...
