“If we march into that village and we start trying to persecute people for using poison, something that's very illegal, nobody's going to talk to us. We're not going to find out where the poison came from. We're not going to be able to shut anything down. We should take the approach that people are using poison because they're desperate, because they see no other alternative.” – Andrew Stein Andrew Stein is a wildlife ecologist who spent the past 25 years studying human carnivore conflict from African wild dogs and lions in Kenya and Botswana to leopards and hyenas in Namibia. His work has long focused on finding ways for people and predators to coexist.

Let’s be honest: most of us have tried to eat more vegetables —only to watch them slowly wilt in the back of the fridge. Or we associate veggies with bland, boring “diet food” and force ourselves to eat them when we’re feeling guilty, not because we actually enjoy them. In this episode, Alison chats with cookbook author Jess Smith , whose brilliant approach to vegetables reclaims them from diet culture and places them at the center of meals that are actually satisfying, flexible, and delicious. Jess’s cookbook Start With a Vegetable flips the script on meal planning. Instead of figuring out how to “squeeze in” veggies as a sad side dish, she shows you how to start with what you’ve got in the fridge and build meals that are full of flavor, fiber , and joy. From systemizing grocery trips and smart storage strategies to go-to sauces and mix-and-match bowls, this episode is packed with practical ways to make veggies an easy, craveable part of your everyday routine—without adding stress, guilt, or rules that don’t work for your life. If you’ve ever stared into your fridge at a sad, soggy bag of spinach wondering where it all went wrong … this episode is for you. Here’s Why We’re Obsessed with This Episode: 🔹 It takes veggies out of the “diet food” box and makes them delicious again. 🔹 Jess gives real-world solutions for reducing waste without meal-planning your entire life. 🔹 The grocery store tips alone are worth the listen—no more forgotten produce in the crisper! 🔹 You’ll walk away with ideas you can use this week (even if you hate meal planning). 🔹The vibe is realistic and anti-perfectionist for those of us who are busy and don't love to cook. Don’t Miss This Episode If… ✅ You keep buying vegetables… and then throwing them away. ✅ You’re trying to eat healthier but refuse to live off boiled broccoli. ✅ You grew up on overcooked veggies and still have trauma. ✅ You want to eat more plant-based meals but don’t want to live in the kitchen. ✅ You’re juggling family, work, and life and just need a damn shortcut. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: 🎯 Why traditional meal planning might not work—and what to try instead. 🎯 The simplest veggie prep system to reduce waste and boost flavor. 🎯 Jess’s favorite no-fuss sauces that transform any veggie from “meh” to amazing. 🎯 How to organize your fridge so your veggies don’t die a slow death. 🎯 Ways to use one ingredient in multiple meals without getting bored. 🎯 Tips for incorporating more plant-based protein into your meals (no soaking dry beans required). 🎯 How to make cooking once and eating twice your new superpower. About Jess Smith Jess Smith is the writer and photographer behind the Inquiring Chef food blog. In addition to running the site which reaches over 8 million home cooks every year, she spent nearly a decade as chief recipe developer for the award-winning meal planning app Cook Smarts .

Are you constantly pushing through fatigue, thinking you’ll rest later —only to find that “later” never comes? In a culture that glorifies busyness, rest often feels like a luxury we can’t afford. But what if we told you that rest isn’t just a break—it’s a performance-enhancing strategy? In this episode, Erin Taylor joins us to unpack the truth about rest as fuel—why we struggle with it, how our mindset around rest is all wrong, and the small but powerful ways we can integrate it into our daily lives. We dive deep into the idea that rest is not something that just happens—it’s a skill that requires practice, intention, and a shift in perspective. From simple strategies to transition into true rest, to dismantling the cultural myth that busyness equals worth, this conversation will change the way you think about recovery. If you’ve ever felt like you “can’t relax,” or that rest feels inaccessible, this episode is packed with insights and practical tools that will help you reclaim your energy and focus. Whether you're an athlete, an entrepreneur, or just someone who feels constantly on the edge of burnout , you’ll walk away from this conversation with actionable steps to make rest work for you—so you can stop running on empty and start feeling fueled, focused, and fully present. Here’s Why We’re Obsessed with This Episode: 🔹 Erin reframes rest as a skill—not something that just happens, but something we must practice. 🔹 Small, in-the-moment rest strategies that you can use anywhere to recharge—no fancy spa days required. 🔹 The shocking ways busyness is hurting your creativity, focus, and even your workouts. 🔹 How rest directly fuels high performance, whether you're training, working, or just trying to function as a human. 🔹 The truth about weekend “rest”—why so many of us still feel exhausted on Monday morning. Don’t Miss This Episode If… ✅ You feel guilty when you’re not being “productive.” ✅ You struggle to turn off your brain at night and get restful sleep. ✅ You know you need more rest, but don’t know how to actually make it happen. ✅ You’ve ever said, “I can’t relax” or “I don’t have time for rest.” ✅ You want to break free from the cycle of overworking, under-recovering, and running on fumes. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: 🎯 Why rest isn’t just “doing nothing”—it’s an active process that enhances performance. 🎯 How to spot the warning signs that you’re running on empty before you hit full burnout. 🎯 The role of transitions—how shifting between work, home, and sleep impacts your energy. 🎯 The “rest toolkit” method Erin swears by—and why having a go-to list makes all the difference. 🎯 How to make rest a daily practice—even when you feel like you have no time.

We often associate poor body image and body dissatisfaction with teens and adult women. But the reality that the roots of negative body image take hold much earlier than that. In this week's episode, we dive deep into the science behind body image with Drs. Janet Boseovski and Ashleigh Gallagher, co-authors of Beyond Body Positive: A Mother’s Science-Based Guide for Helping Girls Build a Healthy Body Image . This conversation is a must-listen for moms, caregivers, and anyone looking to foster a healthier relationship with their body and break the cycle of toxic diet culture. From early childhood messaging to the impact of media, peer groups, and parental influence, our guests provide powerful insights into how body image is shaped across a woman's lifetime. They shed light on why body dissatisfaction isn’t just something that appears in adulthood—it’s cultivated from childhood and continues to be reinforced through various societal pressures. Janet and Ashleigh also explore the difference between “body positivity” as it’s commonly used today and what science actually tells us about fostering a positive body image . They challenge the mainstream conversation and offer practical, research-backed strategies for helping young girls (and their moms) develop a healthier, more resilient relationship with their bodies. If you’ve ever struggled with body image or worried about the messages your child is receiving about their appearance, this episode is packed with actionable advice, insightful research, and hope for change. Let’s move beyond just “feeling good in our bodies” and work towards a culture where women and girls can focus on who they are, not just how they look. Here’s Why We’re Obsessed with This Episode: ✅ It’s not just another body image conversation—it’s science-backed and deeply insightful. ✅ The authors bust myths around body positivity and introduce a healthier, more effective approach. ✅ Real-life, practical tools to help moms and daughters shift their perspectives on food, fitness, and self-worth. ✅ A deep dive into the lifelong impact of body image—from childhood through adulthood. ✅ Encouragement for women to step into their agency and redefine how they engage with their bodies. Don’t Miss This Episode If… 🚫 You’ve ever struggled with body image yourself and want to break the cycle for the next generation. 🚫 You’re a mom, aunt, teacher, or mentor who wants to help young girls develop a healthier self-concept. 🚫 You’re tired of diet culture and the constant emphasis on weight, beauty, and appearance. 🚫 You’ve wondered why body dissatisfaction is so persistent and what actually works to change it. 🚫 You want a fresh, empowering perspective on self-worth that isn’t about just looking in the mirror and “loving what you see.” What You’ll Learn in This Episode: 📖 The surprising science behind how body image develops from early childhood . 👩👧 How moms are the ultimate influencers of their daughters’ body image—for better or worse. 🔬 Why positive body image isn’t the same as body positivity —and why that distinction matters. 💡 The 3 biggest contributors to body dissatisfaction (and how to counteract them). 🍽️ The sneaky ways diet culture and fat talk show up in everyday parenting—and how to shift the narrative. 🏋️♀️ How physical literacy and movement impact body image (and why sports can be a double-edged sword). 💬 How to have real conversations with girls about body changes, confidence, and self-respect. 🚀 Practical, science-backed strategies for raising confident, resilient girls who see their bodies as powerful, not problems to fix.

Why is it so hard to change our habits—even when we know what to do? If you’ve ever struggled with sticking to your health goals, finding motivation, or breaking free from self-sabotage, you’re not alone. The real reason change feels impossible isn’t about willpower or discipline—it’s about your brain. In this episode, we’re diving deep into the neuroscience of behavior change with Dr. Kyra Bobinet , a leading expert on habit formation. She breaks down how a tiny but powerful part of your brain—the habenula—can either fuel your motivation or shut it down completely. And, most importantly, she shares exactly how to work with your brain instead of against it to make lasting changes. Forget the outdated advice that says you need more self-control or rigid discipline to succeed. Dr. Kyra introduces the iterative mindset method , a science-backed approach that helps you break free from failure cycles and finally create habits that stick—without shame, frustration, or burnout . If you've ever found yourself falling into the know-do gap (where you know what you should be doing but just can't seem to do it), this episode is a must-listen. You’ll leave with a new perspective on motivation, habit-building, and why failure is actually an illusion. Ready to rewire your brain for success? Let’s dive in. Here’s Why We’re Obsessed with This Episode ✅ The brain mechanism that controls all your habits (and why you’ve never heard of it before) ✅ Why “more willpower” isn’t the answer to behavior change ✅ The biggest mistake people make when trying to create new habits ✅ How to break free from the know-do gap and take action effortlessly ✅ Why failure is an illusion—and how shifting your mindset can change everything Don’t Miss This Episode If… ➡️ You struggle with motivation and consistency in your health or fitness goals ➡️ You’ve tried and failed at building new habits and feel stuck in an endless cycle ➡️ You believe you lack the discipline to make lasting changes ➡️ You feel frustrated every time you “mess up” and want to stop the self-sabotage ➡️ You want a science-backed approach to rewiring your brain for success What You’ll Learn in This Episode: 🎯 How the habenula controls motivation—and why it might be sabotaging you 🎯 The iterative mindset method and why it’s the real key to lasting habit change 🎯 Why most habit-forming strategies fail (and what actually works instead) 🎯 How to reframe setbacks so they don’t derail your progress 🎯 The truth about long-term behavior change—and why it takes longer than you think 🎯 How to work with your brain’s natural wiring to build habits that stick About Dr. Kyra Bobinet Kyra Bobinet, MD, MPH, has passionately pursued and studied the truth about behavior change for nearly three decades as a physician, public health leader, healthcare executive, and behavioral expert. An award-winning health innovator and thought leader, Dr. Bobinet has an MD from UCSF School of Medicine and an MPH from Harvard University. She belongs to the Stanford Medical School AIM lab, where she has taught on health behavior change, and is CEO/founder of Fresh Tri, a behavioral software company based on the latest neuroscience of habit formation and lasting change. Her first bestselling book, Well Designed Life , is a collection of globally influential brain science and behavior change. Dr. Bobinet is an enrolled member of the Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe in Minnesota. She enjoys meditation, horsemanship, and herbalism and lives with her family and animal and plant teachers in the Santa Cruz Mountains.

What if the key to thriving in motherhood isn’t "bouncing back" to some old version of you—but moving forward into new postpartum potential and opportunities? In this empowering episode, I sat down with coach and former elite CrossFit athlete Marlene Andersson to dive into the pressures women face around "snapping back" after pregnancy. Together, we unpack the cultural myths that keep high-achieving women stuck in unrealistic expectations and explore a mindset shift that prioritizes self-compassion, growth, and sustainable health over outdated body ideals.

From relationships and adventure to purpose and health, Suzanne shares powerful insights on how to cultivate a meaningful, vibrant future beyond just saving money.

For many Gen X and Millennial women, fitness was introduced through the lens of diet culture —workouts were about burning calories and getting smaller. But as we've grown older, we’re realizing that those outdated messages aren’t serving us anymore. In this episode of the podcast, we explore a powerful shift: moving away from exercise as a means to shrink ourselves and instead embracing fitness as a way to enhance our quality of life and longevity. This week, I sat down with strength coach Niki Sims of Barbell Logic to dive into the world of barbell training and why women should be lifting weights for strength, not just for weight loss. We discuss the misconceptions around fitness, why building muscle is the best investment for long-term health, and how strength training can be seen as a "401k for your quality of life." The conversation also touches on our personal journeys—from struggling with body image and punishing exercise habits to fully embracing sustainable strength training as a source of empowerment. We unpack the barriers women face in strength training, including mobility challenges and myths about what it takes to be "successful" in the weight room. In addition, we explore the balance between training and life, the importance of prioritizing recovery, and how learning to manage stress can help women thrive in midlife and beyond. This episode is packed with inspiration, practical advice, and a fresh perspective on what it truly means to train for longevity. If you’re ready to rethink your approach to fitness, this conversation is for you! Here’s Why We’re Obsessed with This Episode 🔥 Strength is for Every Woman – Niki and Alison break down why strength training isn’t just for athletes or bodybuilders but is crucial for every woman at any stage of life. 💪 Muscle is an Investment – The discussion highlights how lifting weights isn’t about aesthetics but about autonomy, longevity, and quality of life. 🚫 Say Goodbye to Diet Culture – They unpack the damaging cultural messages that have kept women away from the weight room and how shifting the focus from weight loss to strength gain is a game changer. 🏋️♀️ Lifting is Empowering – Whether it’s adding more plates to the bar or simply feeling more capable in daily life, the benefits of barbell training extend far beyond the gym. Don’t Miss This Episode If… ✅ You’ve ever felt intimidated by the weight room. ✅ You’re curious about barbell training but don’t know where to start. ✅ You’re in midlife or post-menopause and want to maintain strength and independence. ✅ You’re tired of fitness being solely about shrinking your body and want to focus on gaining something meaningful. ✅ You want to future-proof your health and avoid the pitfalls of aging without strength training. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: The difference between training for weight loss vs. training for strength and longevity. Why muscle is your best insurance policy for health, mobility, and independence as you age. How lifting weights helps with blood sugar regulation, metabolism, and overall energy levels. Why recovery is just as important as training (and how to do it right). How strength training changes the way you see your body—moving from dissatisfaction to deep appreciation. The surprising connection between strength training and mental resilience. How Barbell Logic's online coaching can help you start strength training at any level, from beginner to advanced. About Niki Sims Niki Sims is a passionate advocate for helping others realize their physical potential. With over a decade of experience in barbell coaching, she specializes in creating personalized programs, refining technique, and offering unwavering support.

New weight loss drugs that are making people think our bodes are more changeable than they actually are and promise in their advertising the same shit diets have promised for generations and failed to deliver on -- the myth of transformation. Former champions of body positivity have gone to the dark side. Vogue Business is reporting a "worrying return to using extremely thin models" and a drop-off in size inclusivity in the fashion industry. There are whole industries out there that make billions of dollars each year by making us feel bad about our bodies and selling "solutions" to our "problematic" bodies that never actually provide any sustainable long term results. And every time we get wise and push back, they come up with some other thing that we should obsess over in order to be deemed worthy. In this week's episode of The Fit Bottomed Girls Podcast , I sat down with FBG Alex to explore the resurgence of diet culture, its historical roots, and our personal experiences with disordered eating habits and poor body image provoked by diet culture's false promises of "thinness = health." We're calling out diet culture for what it is—a force that keeps people perpetually chasing thinness under the guise of "health," often at the cost of their mental health, physical health, and overall well-being. We both have been deeply affected in a negative way by diet culture—as two women who grew up in two different generations and two different countries—so we are not going back without putting up a fight. In this episode, we tackle diet culture head-on, expose its toxic roots, and call bullshit on its core arguments that: Conflate weight loss with health Make assumptions about people and their health based on their body size Establish certain foods or ingredients as “good” and others as “bad” We also call out platforms like Tumblr (flashback to the "thigh gap" years) and Instagram for perpetuating toxic body standards. Social media has become a breeding ground for unrealistic “fitspiration” and fear mongering over what defines “good” or "clean" food. This influence has paved the resurgence of outdated thin-focused trends, even after years of body positivity efforts. In this episode, we also share our own personal raw stories along side real, uplifting strategies for reshaping how we see our bodies. We also stress the importance of support systems in navigating these challenges and emphasize that healing is a journey that involves recognizing and managing one's thoughts and feelings about body image. Whether you’re over the endless scroll of “fitspo” or tired of battling unrealistic expectations, this episode is packed with wisdom, compassion, and a whole lot of truth-telling. If you’re ready to challenge the noise and start rewriting your own body story, give this one a listen. Here’s why we’re obsessed with this episode: It's a raw and deeply personal chat about the re-emergence of diet culture and its unsettling impact on mental and physical health. From the societal pressures tied to thinness to the toxic influence of social media, this conversation peels back the layers of a system that far too often equates body image with worth. 🚨 Heads up, this episode dives into heavy, relatable territories like disordered eating and body image struggles.Whether you're navigating your own healing or simply curious about the nuances of diet culture—this one’s powerful.

We hear so much about cortisol, the " stress hormone," on social media these days. Cortisol has become a buzz word in the health and fitness industry—part of a cautionary tale used to warn women away from intense bouts of exercise they age. From fear-mongering posts about how it’s ruining your health to questionable advice from "hormone coaches" selling pricey supplements and restrictive diets—it can be hard to separate fact from fiction. That’s why we brought in the expert, Dr. Carla DiGirolamo —a Board Certified Obstetrician/Gynecologist, Reproductive Endocrinologist, Menopause Society Certified Practitioner, and fitness enthusiast (not to mention a CrossFit trainer and certified nutrition coach). She’s spent her career helping active women—from puberty to menopause—optimize their mental and physical performance. Yep, she’s basically a rockstar when it comes to understanding hormones and coaching high-performing women. This week’s episode of T he Fit Bottomed Girls Podcast is all about cortisol—the misunderstood “stress hormone” everyone loves to hate. We’re cutting through the noise, debunking myths, and exploring how cortisol plays a critical role in your health, fitness, and overall resilience. Together, Dr. Carla and I tackle the conversation we all need to hear about cortisol, women’s health, and the truth behind those viral hormone claims. Seriously, this week’s episode is one for the books. Here’s why we’re obsessed with this episode: Dr. Carla’s analogy of cortisol as the trombone in a much larger orchestra will completely change the way you think about hormones, stress, and health. (Spoiler alert: it’s not all about cortisol!) She also dives into practical ways to dial down stress, recover better, and stay strong as you age. Real Talk: Recovery Matters Recovery isn’t just a checkbox after a workout—it’s where improvement actually happens. Whether it’s dialing in your nutrition, prioritizing sleep, or finally learning to love your cool-down routine, recovery helps you stay resilient and ready for your next challenge. Don’t skip this one if… ✅ You’ve been freaked out by cortisol content on social media. ✅ You want to know how to be stronger (and healthier) as you age. ✅ You’re curious about how hormones impact your stress and performance. Tune in now to hear Dr. Carla’s incredible insights and practical advice! 👉 Listen to the Full Episode Here 👉 Watch the episode on YouTube What You’ll Learn in This Episode: Cortisol isn’t the villain—it's essential for life and fitness. It’s the hormone that helps you tackle challenges, whether that’s a tough workout or life stress. However, it’s all about returning your stress response system to baseline after activation. Stop worrying about “spiking your cortisol.” You need cortisol to be responsive to outside stressors in order to survive. Instead, start focusing on returning your stress response system to baseline regularly through proven down-regulation strategies like meditation, leisure walks, gentle or relaxing yoga. Burnout isn’t caused by cortisol—it’s caused by chronic stress. Dr. Carla shares how to address what’s triggering your elevated stress rather than blaming cortisol itself. Why aging changes the game. Recovery gets trickier as women age due to changes in resilience and hormonal shifts, but proper recovery strategies can keep you thriving. Strength training, nutrition, and mindful recovery are more important than ever. The limits of hormone testing. Single snapshots from blood tests can be misleading! Dr. Carla explains why you need to focus on the bigger picture of your health. Under-fueling = underperforming. Under-eating can actually be a big cause of persistent internal stress and elevated cortisol levels. Nutrition fuels your body for workouts and recovery. About Dr. Carla DiGirolamo Dr. Carla DiGirolamo is a double Board-Certified Obstetrician/Gynecologist and Reproductive Endocrinologist specializing in caring for active and high-performing women from puberty through menopause. Dr. Carla completed her residency training in Obstetrics and Gynecology at Brown University Medical School/Women and Infants’ Hospital and Reproductive Endocrinology fellowship training at the Massachusetts General Hospital at Harvard Medical School.

With a new year, comes new goals and new resolutions . The end of one year and the beginning of another provide the perfect opportunity to pause, take stock, and reflect on the goals we want to achieve and the habits we hope to form. But what if the biggest obstacle standing in the way of your success wasn’t external? What if it was rooted in our own beliefs and thought patterns? That’s exactly what we explore in this week’s episode of The Fit Bottomed Girls Podcast , where I sat down with FBG Alex - a mindset coach passionate about helping individuals break free from limiting beliefs and step into their full potential - to break down five common beliefs that might be holding you back from achieving your goals. It’s not enough to set resolutions and goals. To truly pave the way for meaningful transformation, we need to confront the mental roadblocks that get in our way. From over-scheduling yourself to ditching that all-too-familiar self-critical voice, Alex and I dig deep into the mindset shifts you can make to move into the new year with intention and clarity. If you’re ready to leave behind what no longer serves you and create space for personal growth, this episode is a must-listen. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: How the belief that “I have to do it all” is a recipe for burnout—why setting boundaries and asking for help is the real “superpower.” Why external validation (“I need to know what they think about me”) hurts your self-worth—and how to switch to self-trust instead. How the fixed mindset of “That’s just the way I am” sabotages your potential—and how to add curiosity and growth to your daily life. Why self-criticism (“I’m so lazy and lack discipline”) isn’t helping—and how self-compassion can unlock meaningful change. How overwhelm leads to paralysis (“I don’t have time to focus on my health”) and why breaking goals into small, manageable steps is key. About Alex Kennedy: Alex is a badass Mindset & Life Coach for go-getters who want to achieve their massive goals AND thrive as a human (because you don’t have to sacrifice your well-being for success!).

Body image plays a critical role in shaping how we perceive ourselves, engage with others, and make lifestyle choices. But reaching a place of acceptance—or even joy—with our bodies is no small feat in today's world of social media, constantly-changing beauty standards, and rapidly evolving trends.

Whether you’re someone striving to feel more comfortable in your own body, a coach seeking evidence-based insights for clients, or simply curious about the psychology of body image, this episode has something for you. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: What “body image” really means and why it matters The difference between body neutrality and body positivity Why “just love yourself” can feel unhelpful — and what to aim for instead How focusing on your body’s functionality fosters a healthier mindset The powerful role family, culture, and societal pressures play in shaping body image Practical tips for reducing body surveillance and improving self-acceptance How the rise of weight loss drugs is impacting body image About Dr. Charlotte Markey: Charlotte Markey, Ph.D., is a body image scientist, who has studied body image and eating behaviors for nearly three decades.

Are you a high achiever struggling with crippling anxiety and wondering if you'll ever break the cycle of perpetual burnout? In this week's episode, I sat down with Dr. Mary Anderson, licensed psychologist and author of The Happy High Achiever . Together, we explore the challenges high achievers face, from the pressure to perform to the cycle of burnout, and share actionable tips for finding balance and reclaiming joy in the process of striving for success. From uncovering cognitive distortions like the "troublesome trifecta" to practical strategies for self-care, Dr. Anderson provides invaluable insights to help you strive for excellence without sacrificing your well-being. Learn how gratitude, awareness of your thoughts, and small, consistent self-care practices can transform your approach to achievement—and life. Whether you're navigating anxiety, perfectionism, or just trying to find balance in a busy world, this episode is packed with wisdom and hope. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: Why anxiety is so common among high achievers—and how to break the cycle. The role of cognitive distortions, like all-or-nothing thinking, in perpetuating anxiety. How recognizing and overcoming the "troublesome trifecta" of thought patterns can positively impact mental health. The importance of self-care pillars like sleep, exercise, and social connections for combating stress and burnout. Why striving for excellence (not perfection) allows for success without sacrificing happiness. How small, manageable self-care practices can lead to significant improvements. The surprising connection between ADHD and high achievement. Why self-worth should never be tied solely to external validation. How practicing gratitude can boost happiness and success. Practical strategies for cultivating awareness of your thoughts and feelings. Key Takeaways: Self-awareness is the foundation of managing anxiety and stress.

High achievers can strive for goals without sacrificing their well-being by practicing structured self-care and self-compassion. There’s hope for high achievers to balance ambition with happiness—and it starts with small, intentional changes.

According to the National Osteoporosis Foundation, HALF of all adults age 50 and older - some 54 million Americans - have low bone mineral density, placing them at increased risk of osteoporosis and bone fracture which can significantly negatively impact their quality of life. Are you one of them? On this week's episode of the podcast, I sit down with Karin Weinstein , a personal trainer and yoga teacher who specializes in bone health, to discuss the critical topic of osteoporosis prevention and bone health, especially for women. Too many women are waiting until it's too late and they've got osteopenia (a precursor to osteoporosis) to take the necessary steps to preserve their bone health. We know that early lifestyle interventions - like progressive strength training, accessible impact training, and proper nutrition - are so crucial and quite effective in maintaining bone density. We also explore the misconceptions about bone health, the significant impact of proper nutrition, and the actionable strategies women can take to protect their bones as they age. This conversation dives deep into evidence-based ways you can significantly reduce your risk of osteoporosis and improve your quality of life. If you’ve been wondering what more you can do to support your long-term physical independence and strength, this episode is packed with insights and actionable advice tailored for you. Takeaways Investing in bone health is crucial for women, especially before menopause. Early prevention is key to maintaining bone density. Nutrition and gut health play a significant role in bone health. Strength training and impact training are essential for bone health. Many women are unaware of their bone health status until it's too late. Not all exercises are effective for bone health; variety is important. Osteopenia is a warning sign for osteoporosis. Finding the right support is vital for managing bone health. Mechanical load and progressive overloading in exercise is necessary for bone strength and bone health. Quality of life is tied to physical independence. Impact training is important for bone density. Women should focus on heavier strength training.

To drink or not to drink ... that's the question. Well, it turns out that more and more women in midlife are answering "yes" to that question. In fact, binge-drinking - a drinking behavior we have long associated with young frat boys - is on the rise among women in midlife. As a health and fitness coach who works with many women in midlife, I see firsthand how many in this population are busting their middle-aged asses to do all the things to stay healthy – lifting heavy weights, cranking out intervals, studying food labels, buying organic, booking spa treatments, paying a small fortune on anti-aging supplements and procedures, and actively pursuing personal development. And yet ... their relationship to their nightly glasses of wine and its impact on their physical and mental health remains unexplored. In the week's podcast episode , I chat with Krysty Krywko , a sobriety coach, educator, writer, mixed media creator, and the founder of Purple Dog Sober , and we dive into a critical topic that resonates with many midlife women—the impact of alcohol on their health and well-being. In our conversation, we explore the alarming rise in binge drinking among midlife women, the societal pressures that contribute to these behaviors, the profound detrimental effects of alcohol on mental and physical health, and the unfortunate cultural normalization of daily or near-daily drinking. We both share our own deeply personal stories of sobriety, how we learned to choose healthier coping strategies, the importance of informed choices regarding alcohol consumption, and how to recognize when alcohol is no longer serving a positive role in one's life. This conversation is essential listening for anyone reassessing their relationship with alcohol, looking for support on their sobriety journey, or interested in understanding the societal pressures leading to these behaviors. Tune in for a compassionate, judgment-free, and insightful discussion about making informed, healthier choices. Grab a comfy seat, listen in, and let's start the conversation! Takeaways Women in midlife are increasingly turning to alcohol and binge drinking as a coping mechanism. Cultural narratives often promote alcohol as a necessary part of adult life. Many women are unaware of the true effects of alcohol on their health. Low to moderate alcohol consumption can disrupt sleep and cognitive function. Women metabolize alcohol differently than men, leading to greater health risks. Sobriety can lead to improved mental and physical health outcomes. Making informed choices about alcohol is crucial for overall well-being. You get to decide when enough is enough. Your alcohol doesn't need to have hit a "problematic" threshold for it to be a problem. If you're Googling how much is too much to drink, that's a sign.

In the week's podcast episode, I chat with Trisha Durham. With over two decades of experience in ashtanga vinyasa yoga, Trisha has transitioned from a traditional yoga teacher to a multifaceted movement trainer. Her journey began when she was faced burnout and physical pain, realizing that relying solely on yoga for all her movement needs was not enough and the rigid emphasis on flexibility and alignment did not align with the inclusive and sustainable practice she envisioned. It wasn't until she started strength training in her 40s, specifically barbell training, that she experienced lasting relief from her debilitating back pain that had persisted in spite of decades of practicing yoga. In this conversation, we discuss the importance of movement variety and specifically strength training for women's they age—a population that has historically been deterred from or not exposed to lifting heavy weights. We also highlight the misconceptions around flexibility, discuss the benefits of barbell training, and encourages listeners to consider strength training as a modality to enhance longevity, improve mobility, and aid in injury prevention. It's never too late to start strength training! Takeaways When it comes to managing pain, helping people move is more important than perfecting poses. Functional movement is key to resilience and pain-free living. Flexibility alone is not a cure-all for physical issues. Strength training can alleviate chronic pain and improve mobility. Barbell training is accessible and beneficial for everyone. Integrating different movement modalities enhances overall fitness. Yoga can complement strength training rather than replace it. It's never too late to start strength training. Strength training is now encouraged for everyone. Variety in movement is crucial for longevity in activity and life. Mobility is essential for functional movement, not just flexibility. Progressive strength training can prevent injuries in daily life. Unlearning outdated fitness beliefs can lead to better health outcomes.

In this conversation, Alison and Kim discuss the challenges women over 40 face regarding fitness and nutrition and the impact those factors have on body composition and health. They discuss the importance of movement, strength training, and nutrition for women, particularly those over 40. They debunk common myths about exercise, emphasizing that it should not solely be viewed as a means to burn calories. Instead, they advocate for a holistic approach to health that includes understanding one's body, addressing menopause symptoms, and making informed choices about nutrition and exercise. The discussion highlights the empowerment that comes from strength training and the importance of seeking support during midlife transitions. Takeaways Many women over 40 have misconceptions about their nutritional needs. Diet culture has led to a misunderstanding of food and fitness. Weight loss strategies should focus on sustainable habits, not quick fixes. Understanding basic nutrition is crucial. Women often underestimate their caloric needs as they age. Protein intake is essential for maintaining muscle mass. Mindset plays a significant role in achieving health goals. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to meal patterns. Education and behavior change are necessary for lasting results. Start with a baseline of your current movement. Exercise should enhance quality of life, not just burn calories. Strength training is crucial for long-term health and confidence. Women often underestimate their strength and capabilities. Menopause symptoms can be managed with proper support. It's important to track both movement and nutrition for awareness. Variety in exercise can enhance overall fitness and enjoyment. Don't accept age-related changes as unchangeable facts. Advocating for oneself in healthcare is essential.

Summary In this conversation, Alison and Holley Samuel discuss the misconceptions surrounding marathon training and weight loss, emphasizing that weight loss should not be the primary goal for runners. They explore the physiological needs of marathon training, the importance of carbohydrates, and the signs of inadequate fueling. Holley provides practical fueling recommendations for long runs and addresses the challenges of early morning workouts. They also discuss the impact of body image and weight gain during tapering, highlighting the importance of specialized nutrition guidance for athletes. Takeaways Weight loss should not be the goal while training for a marathon. More cardio does not equal more weight loss, especially at extremes. Carbohydrates are the body's main fuel source, especially for endurance athletes. Training the gut to tolerate fuel is essential for performance. Feeling puffy during tapering can indicate proper fueling and carbohydrate loading. Nutrition is one of the few controllable factors in marathon training. A well-performing athlete is a healthy athlete, and nutrition plays a key role. High sugar, low fiber foods can be beneficial for runners when timed correctly. Reframing minor weight gain during training is crucial for mental health and performance. Seek guidance from sports nutrition experts for tailored advice.

They emphasize the importance of community, connection, and staying true to their mission amidst the pressures of monetization and industry trends.

They faced ethical dilemmas with sponsorships and partnerships. The evolution of the blog included expanding topics beyond fitness. Personal experiences shaped their perspectives on health and wellness. They celebrated significant milestones, including media appearances and book publications. The changing landscape of health and fitness has seen more diverse representation. This episode was sponsored by our parent company, Miles To Go Athletics .

Podcast Episode 132: Sarah Knight “Calm the Fuck Down” We are living in very anxious times from the current political climate to the predictions about the consequences of global warming--how can any of us really not succumb to stress every once in a while? New York Times best-selling author Sarah Knight talks about how to just that with her book “ Calm the Fuck Down: How to Control What You Can and Accept What You can’t So You Can Stop Freaking Out About Your Life .” Artwork By breaking down the different “phases of freaking out” and offering strategies to avoid potential meltdowns--Knight offers plenty of practical tips and solutions to bring more calmness into your life. And really, who wouldn't benefit from a little more of that? Our Favorite Quotes from Sarah: “It’s all about giving fewer fucks of what you don’t want and what you can’t control, and giving more fucks to do what you want and can control” “We’re programmed to feel like we’re near the center of the universe and, like, saying “no” will really hurt someone. But that’s not the case” Podcast Episode 132 Highlights With Sarah Knight: The most important question you can ask yourself when it comes to anxiety and worry How to use the “Sarah Knight Shitstorm Scale” and check the likelihood if ‘what if’ comes to pass One simple and concrete way to stop people-pleasing Why many of us are so scared to say ‘no” and set boundaries The difference between being productive and helpful worrying and non-productive worrying The importance of “mental decluttering The “what/why” method and how it can change your life How people/media in different countries respond to her frequent use of curse words Plus. FBG’s offer a “cursing disclaimer” and how it is for us to say no. Also, why we hate being told to “calm the fuck down!”. Get the episode with the FBGs!
