Are you overwhelmed by the flood of health advice online, feeling stuck despite doing “all the things”?

If you’ve been to every doctor, tried countless protocols, and still don’t feel good in your body, this episode is for you.

I’m joined by Michelle McDonald, a powerhouse in women’s health and fitness and the creator of Train with Joan. Together, we dive into what it really takes to feel alive, energized, and strong in your body at any age.

In this episode, we cover:

Why following a routine is the foundation of lasting change—and how to get started
How the basics like protein-centric nutrition, hydration, and movement outweigh the flashy health trends
How to recognize emotional patterns and stop them from sabotaging your success
Why falling in love with your body now (not later) transforms your results

Learn how to create habits that honor your body, your goals, and your joy.
