I ran the Chicago Marathon. Half marathons. Races every summer for years. And despite all of it, I never loved how I looked, never felt powerful in my body, and definitely never felt confident.

In this episode, I'm sharing the real story behind the shift - from cardio-obsessed runner to strength-focused lifter - and why lifting has changed not just my body, but my entire relationship with myself.

If you're a woman over 45 who's been doing "all the right things" and still not feeling the way you want to feel, this one is for you.

You'll hear:

  • Why miles on the pavement didn't give me what I actually wanted
  • The mindset shift that changed everything at 45
  • Why I stopped training to be smaller - and started training to be stronger
  • How you can make the same shift, starting with just 20 minutes and a pair of dumbbells
