My husband was my first boyfriend. And during Valentine’s week, I realized I’ve never fully talked about what it felt like to be single until 33 - and how often our culture treats singleness like a temporary failure you’re supposed to “fix.”

Quick note: the life catch-up and TV chat are first - the main topic starts around the 15-minute mark if you want to skip ahead!!

If you’re a girl who’s never had a boyfriend, hasn’t had one in a long time, or you’re tired of hearing people ask why you’re single or tell you you’re “too picky,” this episode is for you.

We dive into why you’re not behind, why a healthy relationship should enhance your life - not replace it - and why building a peaceful, full routine on your own is a power move.

Would love to hear from you if you’re listening!! Reach out at hanaostapchuk.com or DM me and let me know your thoughts on this week’s episode.

A little palate cleanser episode today - just me and my best gf Peyton, audio-only, hanging at her house in Jupiter while her toddler naps. We catch up on why I'm in FL this week, pregnancy brain, thoughts of long-distance friendship, why our husbands take the worst photos of us and the very real flood of unsolicited mom advice. And of course, we detour into what we’re watching right now (Traitors, Housewives, Southern Charm - all the essentials).

In Part Two of my chat with the hubs, Peter Kraus, the focus shifts from movement + training to nutrition. We answered some listener questions on intermittent fasting (when it helps, when it backfires), how fat loss actually works, and why “quick fixes” can create more stress than results. Peter also covers electrolytes, sugar cravings, and why nutrition feels so confusing right now.

We also get into macros without making it a whole thing - how to estimate what you need, what tracking can teach you, and how to keep it simple with portions and consistency. Plus, we talk protein timing, eating before workouts, and a few easy habits that help you feel better day to day.
