Making FIT Work – Détails, épisodes et analyse

When I think of real women who are Making Fit Work, I think of local business owner and friend, Marcy Sarmento. Marcy owns Livi Laser Center and is a mom of 2 busy kids, but she always makes time for self-care.

Self-care is one of the best tools we have for growth, both in our businesses and our personal lives. When we build up our energy and confidence, we carry that energy throughout the day and in to every thing we do. 

Marcy shares with us how she practices self-care, including meditation, journalling, building community, eating right, and always getting in some movement.

How do you know if you need to hire a personal trainer or coach? What’s the difference between the two anyways? And if you do need one, how do you pick one? The coaching industry might feel crowded with voices telling you one thing or another and it gets overwhelming. That’s why in this episode, I’m sitting down with my good friend and colleague Nicole, who has been training clients for over 25 years herself, so we can set the record straight once and for all. Getting clear on your fitness goals and expectations can help you decide on the right kind of personal training investment to make, and how to tell the good coaches apart from the really great ones.

I took a little time off podcasting at the end of 2022 to spend time with family and reflect on the upcoming year. It’s so easy to get caught up in what everyone else around us is doing, so it’s important to me to think about how I can share and empower you going forwards. I always pick a word to focus on for the year, to serve as an anchor for my goals. Typically I’ve picked words that channeled what I wanted to achieve professionally, but this time I wanted to focus on something a little different. I thought about what I truly need to create my “best life” and one word kept coming up again and again: connection. Here’s to finding new, better ways to connect with each other in 2023.

More than anything else, I often find that mindset is the number one thing holding my clients back from the success they’re looking for. By getting rid of our limiting beliefs, we unlock the potential to accomplish anything, the potential that lived within us all along. Happiness is found within ourselves and loving who we are, and that self love is the hack needed to unlock our best lives.

You’ve probably heard by now that one of the best things a woman can do on her weight loss journey is to start strength training, aka weight lifting… but why? If you want to lose weight and burn fat, you first have to understand your metabolism and what it’s made up of. Believe it or not, exercise only comprises about 5% of your metabolism! So then why start lifting? Building muscle mass changes everything up and helps you burn that fat a lot faster.

I’m so excited to share this episode with you today, because it’s something very important that I think a lot of us aren’t quite sure how to do “right.” How do you talk about food with kids? With disordered eating and obesity rates rising, it’s more important than ever to teach our kids both healthy eating habits and healthy body image. A good relationship with food starts at home!

Today I’m talking to 82-years-YOUNG Joy Overstreet about how she uncovered the secret to ditching diets. You could say her journey with dieting started over 65 years ago when summer-camp weight gain let to obsessive yo-yo dieting. After Joy’s husband passed away in 1974, she knew something had to change, and that’s when she began to discover what she calls the “Cherry Pie Paradox.” Now everything Joy learned is available for all of us to read in a book, so we can free ourselves from constant dieting and the shame and self-judgement we often attach to our weight.

My weight gain and loss journey through pregnancy was far from average. I gained 45 pounds each time, and in an effort to “bounce back” and not to be the mom who “let herself go” I developed an unhealthy mindset that I still have regrets about. For you mamas out there, don’t get caught up in the number on the scale. Focus on how you feel, rather than how you look, and I promise it’s possible to enjoy the journey.
