Navigating the Balance in Fitness Coaching

This week I sat down with Esther Avant - personal trainer, sports nutritionist, bestselling author, and a coach who's refreshingly committed to keeping fitness simple in an increasingly complicated world.

We dove deep into why the "boring" fundamentals still work better than any shiny new trend (and honestly, it felt a little like therapy for both of us).

Esther and I bonded over being the "broken records" of the fitness industry - coaches who keep saying wild, reckless, and bizarre things like "eat protein, lift weights, get sleep, drink water" while everyone else is pushing hormone hacks and cortisol supplements. We talked about working with real humans (not Instagram models), Esther introduced me to the art of "compassionate ownership" with clients, and why being someone's LAST coach is actually the goal.

This conversation just about set my hair on fire, and I was overjoyed at finding such a kindred spirit - and I think that comes through. Listen up.
