If the gym feels intimidating, overwhelming, or like everyone’s watching — you’re not alone. In this episode, we’re joined by Lily Lifts, who shares how she transformed her own gym anxiety into a powerful, supportive fitness community for women.

Lily opens up about navigating male-dominated gym spaces, learning to ask for help, and how confidence in the gym is built through experience, connection, and support. We also dive into how her nighttime running community, The Night Club, creates a safe space for women to move, connect, and feel confident — especially after dark.

In this episode, we cover:

* Overcoming gym anxiety and intimidation

* Why women-specific spaces in fitness are so important

* How nutrition supports strength, muscle growth, and confidence

* The power of asking for help in the gym

* Building community to combat isolation in fitness

* Why rest, recovery, and balance matter just as much as training

* How social media can be a positive tool for sharing real fitness journeys

This conversation is a reminder that fitness isn’t about perfection — it’s about showing up, finding your people, and building confidence over time.
