Rethinking Fitness: How to Build Strength, Shift Your Mindset & Create a Sustainable Routine with Marilynn Roth
In this episode of Thinking About, we’re rethinking fitness, movement, and mindset with Marilynn Roth, a fitness coach who helps women build strength and confidence without extreme diets or punishing workouts.
Together, we explore the importance of shifting how we think about exercise – moving away from “I need to look good for my vacation” and instead focusing on how movement supports everyday life, longevity, and mental wellbeing.
What We Cover In This Episode:
- The biggest mindset shift when it comes to exercise and nutrition (hint: it’s not about aesthetics)
- Why it’s never too late to start prioritizing movement, no matter your fitness level
- How to audit your current habits to set realistic, sustainable fitness goals
- The power of understanding your WHY—Marilynn’s #1 tip for staying committed
- How to reframe meal prepping and working out from a “chore” to an empowering part of your routine
- Marilynn’s 5 foundational fitness pillars that help create long-term success
- Her journey from a stable teaching career to becoming a fitness coach and what she learned along the way
- The connection between physical and mental health and how movement plays a key role in emotional well-being
If you’re looking for sustainable ways to build strength, stay consistent, and actually enjoy movement, this episode is packed with practical tips, motivation, and mindset shifts that will help you create a fitness routine that sticks.
