In this raw and unfiltered clip from my Momentum group call, we start with some practical tips on getting to bed earlier, improving sleep quality, and actually waking up on time (because let’s be real—hitting snooze 10 times isn’t the vibe).Then, we get into the deep stuff. One of my clients shares that she’s frustrated about not “getting results” with her muscle-building efforts. But when we dig into it… she is getting results—just not the ones she was expecting. The conversation takes a powerful turn when other clients chime in, sharing their own experiences with body shape changes, muscle gain, and shifting expectations. This episode is a must-listen if you’ve ever felt like you're doing all the right things but feel your bottoms getting tighter, confused by the scale not going down, or like you’re the only one navigating these changes. Spoiler: You’re not alone.

🎙️ On this episode, I wanted to give my client, Sophia, a 34 year old 5’2” powerhouse single mom from Nebraska, an opportunity to share her life-changing journey in my VIP program! Sophia went from struggling on a [mostly liquid] 1200-calorie diet to fueling her body with over 1650 calories a day, which led to a 34-pound weight loss over six months.🤯🎉 She shares how upping her calories [especially protein] made all the difference —plus, she’ll share her favorite swaps like Fairlife milk and red lentil pasta that helped her easily reach her macro targets without giving up her favorite meals. But it’s not just about the food. Sophia talks about the mental and physical benefits, from skyrocketing confidence to better sleep, and how her stress levels have melted away. Oh, and did I mention she’s now crushing pull-ups and performing like a boss on the basketball court again?! Sophia’s journey is one of strength, resilience, and transformation, and she’s here to inspire YOU! Tune in to hear how she’s gone from being camera-shy to snapping selfies like a queen.
