Your MVPs isn’t your most valuable player… Although perhaps it should be.

It’s actually your ‘Minimum Viable Practice’. And it’s the tool that will save your consistency when your days and weeks turn messy.

MVPs are:

Not workouts.

Not challenges.

Not “being perfect.”

Just the smallest, simplest version of movement that keeps your rhythm alive, especially on the messy days.

Inside this episode, I share:

• What an MVP actually is (and why most women desperately need one)

• Why “never doing nothing” is the real secret behind consistency

• How friction-free movement protects your identity as someone who moves

• My 3 personal MVPs — the exact ones I use when everything goes sideways

• How to create your own MVP you can do in 10 minutes or less

Your MVP isn’t meant to replace your training.

It’s the bridge between “I worked out” and “I did nothing” — and that little bridge matters more than you think.

Feeling bombarded by advice about hormones, cortisol, and perimenopause? You’re not imagining it -  the internet starts yelling the second you Google anything about midlife health. Suddenly, you’re told it’s impossible to build muscle, dangerous to raise cortisol, and that you need a new identity (plus $1,000 worth of supplements) to survive this stage.

Let’s simplify it.

In this episode, I’m breaking down the myths about perimenopause and sharing the 3 shifts that make the biggest difference ( without overhauling your life).

💪 What you’ll learn:

• The truth about muscle, hormones, and age

• Why you don’t need to lift super heavy or live in the gym

• The real relationship between cortisol, stress, and belly fat

• The 3 “boring but powerful” basics that still work

Listen in for a calm, realistic, no-BS approach to perimenopause, and learn how to keep your strength, energy, and sanity intact.

A client said to me this week, “I want to start training at home, but I don’t have the right equipment - I don’t want to do it if it’s not worthwhile.” Sound familiar?

Here’s the truth: equipment is just a tool, not the system. You don’t need a full home gym to get results. You need a structure, a plan you trust, and consistency.

In this episode, I’ll show you how to start strength training effectively with what you already have, how to make exercises harder without buying more gear, and why it’s your effort (not your dumbbells) that drives progress.

🎧 Listen now to learn:• Why equipment doesn’t make your workout effective• The 3 ways to make exercises harder without heavier weights• How to tell if your training is “hard enough”• The minimal gear I actually recommend for home training

Do you actually have a strong core? Most women assume the answer lies in how flat their stomach is, how long they can hold a plank, or whether their back hurts. But the truth is, none of those things tell the full story.

In this episode, we unpack what your core really is (hint: it’s more than abs), why bracing harder isn’t the answer, and what real, functional core strength looks like in everyday life. You’ll learn: • Why visible abs don’t equal strength • The difference between stiffness and stability • How pain and “weakness” are often just mismatched load and capacity • And the simple principles to build a core that supports you in real life, not just on the mat

✨ If you’d love to rebuild your core connection and join our 7-Day Core Challenge starting November 10th, come join us inside GLOW10 Tribe. All the strength, all the guidance, just 10 minutes a day.

Every week, I hear women say they’ve quit HIIT or lifting heavy because they don’t want to “spike cortisol.” But here’s the truth: cortisol isn’t bad. It’s your body’s built-in get-up-and-go system. The problem isn’t that it rises; it’s when it never comes back down.

In this episode, I unpack what cortisol actually does, why fearing it might be doing you more harm than good, and how to find the sweet spot between stress and recovery so your body, and your hormones, can actually thrive.

If you’ve ever blamed your posture for your sore neck or tight shoulders, this episode might just change how you think about your body.

In this week’s Everyday GLOW Show, I explain why pain and stiffness aren’t signs of “bad posture”; they’re signs of stillness. You’ll learn why even perfect ergonomics can’t fix neck or back tension, the biggest mistake people make about posture, and what your body really needs instead.

I also share simple, realistic ways to break up sitting, support your spine, and feel better in your body, no matter what your workday looks like.

Bone health might sound like something you’ll deal with “later”… but what your bones need most actually happens now.

In this episode, I’m breaking down why walking, yoga, or Pilates alone may not be enough to protect your bones long-term — and what to do instead. You’ll learn how strength training, nutrition, and recovery work together to keep your bones, muscles, and hormones in sync (especially during perimenopause and menopause).

If you’re ready to future-proof your body and feel stronger for the decades ahead, this one’s a must-listen.

🎧 Listen now, and if you’re ready to start lifting for bone health, join me inside GLOW10 Tribe — my 10-minute-a-day strength training system for women in midlife and beyond.

In this episode of the Everyday GLOW Show, I’m breaking down one of the biggest mindset blocks I see in women trying to start (or restart) strength training: the idea that if you’re not lifting heavy in a gym, it doesn’t count.

Here’s the truth: consistency matters more than location or load. I’ll walk you through the research on moderate vs heavy lifting, the three biggest barriers to consistency, and why your lounge room floor and a couple of dumbbells are more than enough.

💡 Plus, how training at home might actually be your biggest advantage.

You’re not alone — but the truth might surprise you. In this episode, I break down one of the biggest fitness myths: spot reduction. You’ll learn what strength training can do for body composition (and what it can’t), why appearance and function are not the same thing, and how to reframe your goals to feel stronger, more confident, and way less confused.

Will lifting weights make you bulky? Or is Pilates the secret to “long, lean muscles”?

This is Part 2 in our Strength Training & Weight Management Series.

• What “bulk” actually is (and why we’re so afraid of it)

• Why Pilates won’t make you look like a ballerina — and why lifting weights won’t make you look like a bodybuilder

• The truth about “long, lean muscles”

• How progressive strength training works without making you bigger

• The difference between muscle mass, strength, and power — and why women over 35 need all three

If you’ve ever hesitated to pick up a dumbbell, this one’s for you.

In this episode, I unpack what strength training actually does for your body when it comes to long-term weight loss — and just as importantly, what it doesn’t.

If you’ve ever wondered whether lifting weights is really worth it, this episode is a must-listen.

If you’re a woman over 40, chances are you’ve got a long mental list of all the exercise you should be doing. Weighted walks, Pilates, running, HIIT, pelvic floor, stretching, mobility, core, rehab - and on it goes. It’s no wonder we feel overwhelmed, stuck, or end up doing nothing at all.

In this episode, I walk you through my powerful 3-question filter to cut through the noise and help you get clear on what actually matters right now - based on your values, your goals, and your current season of life. You’ll also learn how to set a “movement goalpost” and create your own simplified blueprint for consistent, meaningful movement.

• The common mindset blocks for contented cruisers

• Three practical tools to build sustainable movement, without waiting for something to go wrong

This week, we’re talking about the Cautious Mover—a personality type I see all the time in the women I work with as a physio. Maybe you’ve had an injury in the past, or you’re just not confident you’re “doing it right.” Maybe fear of pain, injury, or not being good enough has kept you stuck.

In this episode, I’ll walk you through:

• Why perfection isn’t required for progress (or safety)
