What if the problem was never you — it was the plan?
Most fitness and nutrition advice was built for men's bodies. It assumes consistency looks the same every day, every week, all month long. But for women, that's simply not how our biology works.
In this episode, I'm joined by Sarah Boyd — certified personal trainer, nutrition and lifestyle coach, women's health coach, and author of The Habit Revolution — to talk about why the one-size-fits-all approach to food and fitness fails women, and what to do instead.
We dive into the four phases of the menstrual cycle and how to adapt your nutrition, exercise, and sleep habits to each one. We talk about why cravings aren't a lack of willpower, why lifting weights matters more than cardio (especially in midlife), and how to redefine what consistency actually looks like for a woman's body.
If you've ever felt like you were failing at being healthy, this episode will change the way you see yourself — and your cycle.
