There’s a new wave of “smallness” sweeping through the wellness world and it’s wrapped in prescription meds, filtered bodies, and a deeper obsession with being thin. But chasing skinny in 2025 isn’t harmless... it can be dangerously seductive for women who are exhausted, overextended, and just want to feel like something finally works.

In this episode, we break down the nitty gritty of this new wave skinny trend: the metabolic risks, the psychological hooks, and the societal conditioning that’s driving smart, capable women straight into fragility disguised as control.

• Why fast weight loss often comes with lean muscle loss—and why that matters more than your pant size
• What labs reveal about “healthy-looking” bodies that are actually running on fumes
• The nervous system toll of chronic under-eating, overtraining, and living in a loop of restriction
• What it actually takes to look lean while living well and why most women are never taught how

f your body is shrinking but your health, strength, and resilience are fading with it… it’s time to rethink what you’re really working toward. Because looking smaller isn’t the same as becoming stronger. And you didn’t come this far just to end up fragile.

Listen in. Then ask yourself... what is it that you're really chasing?

This episode isn’t about defending ourselves as coaches, it’s about bridging the gap between assumption and reality. Because the truth is, a lot of what people assume about how we train, eat, or stay consistent isn’t just inaccurate... it’s also discouraging. It creates the illusion that we’re built differently, or that the results we have are out of reach for anyone else.

We’re breaking down the 9 most common ways coaches are misunderstood & it's not to justify anything, but to demystify what it actually takes to get here. We’ve simply been prioritizing these things longer. We’ve had more reps, more trial and error, and more time to figure out what works. And the only real difference between where we are and where you might be now is that we just kept going.

Inside this episode, we dive into:

• Why we’re not anti-cardio or supplements, we’re anti 'strategy without context'
• The real reason we prioritize protein, strength, and consistency over quick fixes
• Why balance doesn’t mean never enjoying life, but it does require structure
• How discipline (& time) is the engine behind progress
• What we actually think when someone’s starting from square one (hint: we're never judging you, especially talking to you clients who already committed and invested in themselves)

None of what we do is exclusive or unattainable. You’re not behind, you’re just on a different chapter. And yes, it’s hard. but so is staying stuck, feeling uncomfortable in your body, and second guessing every decision. This is about choosing your hard with intention and knowing that with the right strategy, your version of success is absolutely within reach.

We’re living in a time where nearly every health concept has been packaged into a branded protocol like cycle syncing, GLP-1s, Pilates over lifting, hormone-balancing supplements. What may have started with good intentions has quickly spiraled into a culture of over-complication, where trends are followed without context and strategy is replaced by rule-following.

In this episode, we take a step back to examine what’s actually driving results and what’s distracting women from them. These trends aren’t inherently wrong, but the way they’re being applied is. When tools are used in the wrong order, without a solid foundation or an understanding of physiology, they just create burnout, confusion, and stalled progress.

• Why cycle syncing workouts are often a distraction from the real issue
• How “toning” with Pilates fails to deliver the muscular stimulus needed for change
• The cardio myths that continue to sabotage women’s body composition
• The realities of GLP-1 use without metabolic repair
• Why supplements and lab tests mean nothing without the basics in place
• The over-glorification of extremes like 75 Hard and what sustainable discipline actually looks like

When the fundamentals are solid (consistent strength training, adequate nutrition, recovery, and muscle), you don’t need to chase the next wellness trend. You’re already doing what works.

If you’ve been overthinking your health strategy and underestimating the power of simplicity, this episode will challenge your perspective and anchor you back into what matters most.
