In this episode, I'm talking directly to high-performing women who feel like their body is the one area of life that won't fall into place, no matter how disciplined or successful they are everywhere else.

I see this pattern constantly: women who are crushing it in their careers, relationships, and personal standards, yet feel deep internal shame because their body doesn't reflect the level of excellence they hold themselves to. And the truth is — this isn't about laziness, lack of discipline, or "not wanting it badly enough."

In this episode, I break down why high-achieving women so often struggle with fat loss and body composition, even when they're doing "all the right things," and what actually needs to change to fix it.

We talk about metabolic adaptation from chronic under-eating, why effort without strategy backfires, how all-or-nothing thinking keeps women stuck, why your old fitness tools stop working as your life grows, and what it really means to reconnect with your body in a way that supports long-term performance.

This is about moving out of punishment and into partnership with your body — and building a fitness identity that matches the standards you already live by everywhere else.

In this episode, I cover:

Why high-performing women often feel disconnected from their bodies
Chronic under-eating, metabolic adaptation, and stalled fat loss
Why strategy beats brute force in fitness
All-or-nothing thinking and how it sabotages consistency
Outgrowing old fitness tools as life responsibilities increase
