Anne Marie Chaker spent 27 years as a journalist at The Wall Street Journal, but behind the success, she was struggling. After a series of personal losses, alcohol became her way to cope—until a chance encounter in a hotel gym changed everything. In this episode, she shares how strength training helped her break free from extremes, transform her mindset, and rebuild her life. We also dive into insights from her upcoming book, LIFT, where she challenges the “skinny ideal” and explores why building strength is the real key to confidence and longevity. If you’ve ever struggled with moderation, fitness, or finding balance, this conversation will inspire you to rethink what’s possible.
