Doors are open for a limited time!


Welcome to the very first episode of Get Your Goal Body—the podcast for women who are DONE playing small and ready to get unapologetically HOT.

I’m Hilary Carver, and today I’m opening up like never before. In this foundational episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on my entire transformation journey—from childhood struggles with body image, through pregnancy, setbacks, and all the raw, real moments in between. Yep, I lost 100 pounds naturally, but trust me, the story is so much bigger than the scale.

Inside this episode, you’ll hear:

  • The truth about my childhood, body image, and what finally pushed me to change for good
  • The habits that actually work: food logging, prioritizing protein, and strength training (no more quick fixes!)
  • How I navigated pregnancy, setbacks, and the mental battles that almost made me quit
  • The moment I went all-in on sharing my story—and how it led to helping my mom, building a business, and creating this movement
  • My five ride-or-die habits I’d repeat, and five things I’d absolutely do differently if I could start over in 2025
  • A personal invite to join me inside Goal Body Academy and change your life—for real


Whether you’re brand new or you’ve been riding with me since the start: this is the episode to bookmark, share, and come back to every time you need proof that your goal body (and life) is possible.

Ready to get inspired, take action, and finally become the woman you promised yourself you’d be? Let’s get into it.
