The Rebuild
The Rebuild with Dillon Phaneuf
At some point, we all have to rebuild.
Sometimes it’s after everything falls apart, loss, failure, identity collapse.
Sometimes, life is good on paper, but something’s still missing. Either way, the work is the same: look inward, take ownership, and start again, brick by brick.
This show is about that process.
I’ve been coaching full-time for nearly 15 years. I’ve walked people through physical transformation, emotional healing, relapse, addiction, growth, success, and pain that doesn’t show up in check-ins. And right now, I’m walking through my rebuild.
This podcast is where I bring the rawness of that to the surface. You’ll hear conversations with people building something real, solo episodes where I process what I’m learning in real time, and moments that hopefully remind you you’re not alone.
Whether you’re at your best and want to go higher or on the bathroom floor trying to figure out what’s next, this space is for you.
Because even when it feels like checkmate, there’s always a better move.

Episode 13: Postpartum, Hormones & Rebuilding from the Inside Out With Amy Godin
Amy Godin isn’t just a pro bikini competitor or a top-tier coach. She’s a new mom, a hormone expert, and now part of the core leadership team at TMP and The Den.
In this episode, Dillon sits down with Amy, seven months postpartum, to discuss what actually happens after childbirth, not the highlight reel, the real stuff.
They unpack the emotional and physical toll of rebuilding after pregnancy, the pressure to “bounce back, " the hormone crashes no one talks about, the habits that matter when your nervous system is fried, and how identity shifts when you become a mom but still have the heart of an athlete and the mind of a leader.
This isn’t a fitness podcast episode.
It’s a healing one.
You’ll hear about:
→ Postpartum truth bombs and hormone resets
→ How Amy’s body started signaling something was off
→ What it’s like being coached through your own comeback
→ Why cycle syncing and nervous system regulation matter more than willpower
→ The shift from CrossFit athlete to Bikini Pro to Den co-owner
→ How to coach women through the trenches, not around them
This episode will hit home for moms, coaches, and anyone in a season of becoming.
