I’m sharing why building muscle has become one of the biggest priorities in my health journey—not just for aesthetics, but for hormonal health, metabolism, longevity, confidence, and mental health.

In this episode, I break down how muscle helps improve insulin resistance by giving carbohydrates a place to be stored and used instead of overburdening the liver, and why that matters so much for women’s health.

Listen in to hear me share:

• Why building muscle matters for hormones, metabolism, and weight loss
• How muscle supports insulin resistance, PCOS symptoms, fertility, and blood sugar balance
• The difference between movement, muscular endurance, and true muscle-building
• Why lifting close to failure, using heavier weights, and resting properly matters
• How strength training can support confidence, mental health, and healthy aging
• My own at-home routine using Peloton split programs, yoga, and mat Pilates
• +so much more
