In this episode, I invite you to look at health and fitness differently as we move into 2026. We talk about why quick fixes don’t stick, how diet culture has...

Send us a text In this 7-minute solo episode, Michelle unpacks one of the biggest roadblocks she sees: the “all-or-nothing” mindset. Instead of treating a PDF plan like a pass/fail test, she shows how to “dance in the grey” with flexible tools—Daily Minimums, Good/Better/Best tiers, simple If-Then pivots, and the 3 Ms (Move, Meal, Mindset)—so progress keeps moving even on messy days.

Send us a text We set a bold August goal—walk 150 km. None of us hit it… and it was still a win. In this episode I share the five lessons the challenge taught me: why walking is powerful for mood and energy, how strategy and intention unlock capacity, the value of finishing strong even when you won’t “hit the number,” and why aiming high changes who you become. If it doesn’t challenge you, it doesn’t change you. Press play for a gentle push as we step into September. If you loved today’...
