Here, we’re all about helping you feel strong in your body and loud in your life, without chasing perfection.

Inside each episode, you’ll get no-BS tools you can actually use, real talk about fitness, food, and feeling good, and unfiltered stories from the messy, beautiful chaos of motherhood. Whether you’re listening on a walk, hiding in the pantry, or squeezing it in between drop-offs, know this: you’re not alone here. You’re part of a community that sees you, supports you, and celebrates you — every step, every win, no matter how big or small. Let’s do this together.

Episode 10 -The Dumbest Fitness Advice I’ve Ever Heard - and a giveaway!
In this episode, I’m breaking down the dumbest fitness advice I’ve ever heard — the myths and gimmicks that sound convincing but keep moms stuck. From cutting carbs to endless cardio to skipping breakfast, I’ll bust through each one and share the simple, proven habits that actually create results.
And listen up — I’ve got a fun giveaway for my listeners inside this episode.
- Myth 1: Cut carbs to lose weight.
- Myth 2: Do more cardio to burn belly fat.
- Myth 3: Wear a weighted vest all day to burn more calories.
- Myth 4: Skip breakfast — fasting is the only way.
- Myth 5: If it’s not 60 minutes, it doesn’t count.
The Real Truth: Energy, fat loss, and confidence come from the basics — protein + fiber, strength training, daily movement, sleep, and consistency.
