Welcome to the FIT Woman Podcast, where we talk all things food, hormones, metabolism, mindset, and midlife.
I’m Tania Gustafson, a globally recognized, award-winning nutritionist and hormone health expert, columnist, and speaker. I created the FIT Method to help women just like you fuel your body, ignite your metabolism and your mind, so you can thrive through every stage of life — especially midlife.
FIT Woman podcast is your place to learn how to take back control of your health, hormones, weight, gut health, and mental wellness — without dieting, deprivation, or guilt. Because here’s the truth: you can’t pour from an empty cup. Diets lie, willpower isn’t a strategy, and nothing thrives in a deficit.
Each week we’ll dive into real, science-backed conversations, practical strategies and personal stories that help you ditch the survival mode, show up confidently, and thrive again.
It’s time to let midlife be your re-launch — because strong is the new sexy, healthy is happy and you deserve the rest of your life to be the best of your life.

Tania's Story
mardi 14 octobre 2025 • Durée 21:51
Welcome to the very first episode of The Fit Woman Podcast! Host Tania Gustafson shares her journey from fitness instructor to award-winning nutritionist and hormone health coach - and the pivotal moments that shaped her mission to help midlife women move from barely surviving to thriving.
Tania opens up about her own family’s health struggles, her early lessons about inflammation and blood sugar balance, and how she discovered the power of food to heal the body and balance hormones naturally.
Through her story, you’ll learn why so many women have been misled about menopause, dieting, and what “healthy” really means - and how you can start rewriting your story today. If you’ve ever been told that midlife weight gain, hot flashes, brain fog, and fatigue are “just part of getting older,” this episode will inspire you to think differently.
Tania’s science-based yet practical approach focuses on fueling your body, igniting your metabolism, and thriving through midlife - without dieting or deprivation.
Key Takeaways:
You’ve been lied to - midlife symptoms like weight gain and mood swings aren’t inevitable.
Inflammation is at the root of most chronic issues - and you can reverse it.
Blood sugar balance = hormone balance. The foods you eat directly impact how you feel.
Thriving through menopause is possible. You can age younger, feel stronger, and live fully.
Mindset matters. Your thoughts shape your actions, and your actions shape your results.
Thanks for tuning in to the FIT Woman Podcast. Remember, nothing thrives in a deficit — not your body, not your hormones, and not your mindset. You deserve to feel strong, energized, and confident through every stage of life.

Endo Warrior: Alexa's Journey
jeudi 18 décembre 2025 • Durée 48:18
In this deeply honest and heartfelt episode, Tania sits down with Alexa Anderson, an Endo Warrior and co-creator of the Women’s Health Collective, to unpack the emotional, physical, and often invisible battle that comes with endometriosis.
Alexa opens up about her long journey navigating chronic pain, fertility challenges, medical dismissal, and the emotional toll that so many women silently shoulder. Her story is raw, real, and incredibly relatable for anyone who has ever felt unheard or misunderstood in their health journey.
Together, Tania and Alexa dive into why so many women are left without answers for far too long — and what true support, advocacy, and community can look like when women finally begin sharing their experiences openly.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
Alexa’s personal journey with endometriosis and the years she spent searching for answers
How chronic pain, hormonal imbalance, and fertility struggles impacted her relationships, identity, and emotional well-being
The profound difference it makes when women feel seen, believed, and supported
Why women’s health conditions remain misunderstood — and how that’s finally starting to change
What inspired Alexa and her co-founder to build the Women’s Health Collective, a safe space for open conversation and community
How connection, vulnerability, and education are helping women navigate healing on every level — mind, body, and soul
The power of advocating for your health, trusting your intuition, and refusing to settle for “this is just how it is”
Alexa’s courage and openness remind us that women deserve to be heard, supported, and believed — and that healing becomes possible when we stop going through it alone.
Key Takeaways
You’re not “too sensitive.” You’re not imagining it. Women’s pain is real — and deserves proper attention, diagnosis, and support.
Community is medicine. When women share their experiences, it reduces shame and creates pathways to solutions.
Food, Travel & Health: The Perfect Pairings
jeudi 11 décembre 2025 • Durée 39:19
In this energizing episode, Tania chats with Dawn McGee, a nutrition evangelist, author, and speaker who helps women ditch diet culture and build simple systems that make healthy living effortless—even on the go.
Dawn shares how her love for travel, food, and adventure led her to create a sustainable approach to nutrition that fits real life. Together, she and Tania dive into the power of food freedom, how to make your health goals stick, and why fun, flexibility, and community are essential ingredients in any lasting transformation.
You’ll hear them discuss:
How to simplify your nutrition so it supports your goals (and your lifestyle)
Why “good” and “bad” foods are a mindset trap—and what to focus on instead
The importance of systems over willpower
How to find joy and connection in the way you eat, move, and live
Why travel and adventure are vital for a woman’s confidence and energy
Dawn’s approach reminds us that thriving isn’t about restriction—it’s about creating freedom through alignment, systems, and joy.
Key Takeaways
Systems create success. Build structure that supports your goals rather than relying on motivation alone.
Food is freedom. When you learn how to fuel your body, you stop fighting it.
Joy matters. Fun and connection are part of wellness—not extras.
Health is holistic. It’s not just about what you eat, but how you live.
In this episode, Tania sits down with media personality and wellness advocate Toby Tannas to talk about what it really means to feel vibrant, confident, and connected through midlife.
With more than 30 years in television and radio, Toby has spent much of her life in the public eye. But her greatest evolution has come through the journey inward—learning how to balance health, beauty, and mindset in a way that celebrates rather than criticizes who we are as women.
Together, Tania and Toby discuss:
The mindset shift that happens when we stop striving for perfection and start embracing presence
How movement and self-care evolve through different seasons of life The role of confidence and community in staying motivated
How to redefine beauty and aging on your own terms
Why women thrive when they trade comparison for connection
This heart-centered conversation reminds us that midlife isn’t a time to slow down—it’s a time to live with intention, confidence, and joy.
Key Takeaways
Balance is built, not found. Tune into what feels good for your body and honor that daily. Confidence grows with action. Small, consistent choices lead to big shifts in energy and mindset.
Redefine beauty. Let it come from vitality, authenticity, and how you show up for yourself.
Community fuels change. Surround yourself with women who lift and inspire you.
Toby Tannas is a seasoned media personality with over 30 years in television and radio. A lifelong advocate for health and fitness, she’s competed in figure competitions and run everything from 5Ks to half marathons—keeping vitality at the core of her life.
