  • 27. Burnout Is A Boundary Problem, Not A Character Flaw
    2026/02/13

    Send a text

    Feeling exhausted even though you’re “doing everything right”? We take aim at the real culprit behind burnout for high-capacity women: unmanaged boundaries that leak energy in small, constant ways. Instead of chasing more motivation, we map the everyday habits that keep your nervous system on high alert and steal the focus you need for training, sleep and joy.

    If this resonates, share it with a friend who’s always tired and thinks the fix is to push harder. Subscribe, leave a review and tell us: which boundary will you practise first?

    I am happy we can share this journey of leveling up, together. Send me a text by clicking the link at the top of the description. I would love to hear from you :) See you next week!

  • 23. The Science of Abs: Why You Might Never See Your Abs (and Why That’s Okay)
    2026/01/16

    Send us a text

    Six-pack culture promises quick fixes; the human body offers a far better story. I dig into what abs actually are, why they matter for posture and stability, and how to approach fat loss without falling for spot reduction myths or punishing routines. Our goal is to build a stronger, smarter core and a healthier mindset by pairing science with practical steps you can sustain.

    Enjoyed the conversation? Subscribe, leave a review and share this episode with a friend who needs a realistic roadmap to core strength and sustainable results.

  • 20. Dear January, My Willpower Is On A Budget: Intentionally Becoming
    2025/12/26

    Send us a text

    Resolutions usually promise a brand-new you by January 1, then fizzle by February. We’re taking a different path: becoming, not resolving. In this reflective year-end conversation, we unpack why willpower-heavy plans collapse and how identity-based habits make change feel natural rather than forced. When actions align with who we believe we are, even small steps compound into meaningful, sustainable growth.

    Subscribe, share with a friend who needs a gentler way to grow, and leave a review with the value you’re choosing to lead with this year.
