On today's episode, you will hear a very strangely put together, slightly diary-esque podcast about the challenges I have faced in the past couple of months since I've last recorded a solo episode. It feels slightly like a monologue of a play, but maybe you guys will get something out of it. Maybe not, but do with this what you will.

If you wanna hear me get heated and go on 100 rants in 20 minutes THIS IS THE PODCAST FOR YOU! People pleasing is rampant in our culture and the fitness space is no different.
Here we break down what people pleasing is, why you do it, how it shows up in your fitness, and why it's holding you (and your coach) back from the best experience possible.

This episode covers the phenomenon that almost every human experiences: self-sabotage. But what if self-sabotage was not what you think? What if it wasn't this evil behavior holding you back from what you want? What if it was something else?
We will go over this in depth with examples, as well as other ways for you to move forward when your self-sabotaging behaviors come out.

This episode was inspired by a listener asking about my personal decision to stop regularly eating meat as a part of my diet.

Everyone and their goldfish are fitness coaches these days, but what happens behind the scenes in these relationships after the client signs up?
We riff on:
The current coaching space and the wounded relationship dynamics we experience as a collective.
The abusive and absent coach dynamic ruining fitness journeys.
The delivery of "tough" love.
The athlete/client's power and responsibility in these relationships.
