In this episode, I’m diving into the fitness myths that sound convincing on social media but are secretly keeping you stuck.

I cover:

  • Why building muscle isn’t the fat-burning shortcut people claim it is
  • Why protein alone won’t build muscle and how it only works when paired with resistance training
  • Why intuitive eating doesn’t work for fat loss when your hunger cues are deregulated

I even share the ridiculous story of how I once thought eating a bucket of Popeyes fried chicken counted as “healthy” because I was told chicken was good for fat loss.

The takeaway? Simplicity wins. When you stop chasing complicated hacks and stick to strategies that make sense, consistency — and results — follow.
