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.

Some phrases sound innocent... but they reveal exactly why so many women stay stuck in the same cycles. In this episode, we’re breaking down the offhand comments that quietly sabotage your progress (and others) and why true health coaching is about way more than the number on a scale, a new diet trend, or waiting for the “perfect time.” If you’re serious about leveling up how you think, train, fuel, and live, this conversation is the reset button you didn’t know you needed.

We’re not here to nitpick your language, we’re just here to show you how certain mindsets are keeping you small, stuck, and second-guessing yourself and in some situations, can do more harm than good! Once you hear the why behind it, you won’t look at your goals, your habits, or your words the same way again (in a good way)!

You say you want the results. So why aren’t your actions matching the outcome you’re after?

This episode is a wake-up call for anyone who feels stuck despite “doing everything right.” We’re getting to the root of what’s actually driving the disconnect between your intentions and your reality.

• Why clarity, structure, and feedback matter more than motivation
• How identity misalignment silently erodes consistency and confidence
• The neuroscience behind why you stay inspired but don’t follow through
• What learned helplessness really looks like in high-functioning women
• Practical strategies to realign your actions with your goals—even when life feels full

This is more than just discipline, it's about reclaiming agency, building evidence through action, and finally moving forward with purpose.

If you’re tired of circling the same frustrations and ready to operate from ownership instead of overwhelm then this conversation will meet you exactly where you are.

Hit play. Your results are waiting on you.

Most conversations about transformation focus on what you need to add like better habits, more discipline, a new mindset. But what often gets overlooked is what you have to let go of in the process: the version of you that survived by staying small, overworking, restricting, or chasing external validation.

In this episode, Jillian and Jesse explore the lesser-known emotional side of growth... grief. Not the kind tied to tragedy, but the quiet grief that surfaces when you realize that in order to truly heal, you have to release the identity that once kept you safe.

We break down --

• Why even positive change can trigger resistance and internal conflict
• The neuroscience of identity, safety, and why your brain favors the familiar
• How to recognize when your old habits are rooted in coping, not thriving
• The three psychological phases of transformation and how to move through them without sabotaging your progress
• A practical framework for rebuilding your identity, behaviors, and nervous system from the ground up

This conversation is for the woman who’s ready to evolve, but feels the emotional weight of doing things differently. If you’ve ever wondered why healing feels uncomfortable or why part of you still clings to patterns that no longer serve you, this episode will help you make sense of it all.

You’re not losing yourself. You’re making space for who you were always meant to become!

If you’ve been tracking your macros, lifting consistently, and doing all the “right” things, but still feel like your body isn’t responding... this episode will help you understand why!

Your metabolism isn’t broken, but it is adaptive. And if you’ve spent years in a calorie deficit, dealing with high stress, poor sleep, or inconsistent recovery, your metabolism is simply responding to the signals it’s been given.

In this episode, Jess and Jill break down:

• What actually determines your metabolic rate (and why it’s not just about age)
• How dieting, stress, and low energy availability suppress metabolism
• The key differences between metabolic damage and metabolic adaptation
• What needs to change before your body starts responding again
• How to build a more efficient, flexible metabolism without extremes

If fat loss feels harder than it used to, there’s a reason. Tune in for the science, the strategy, and the real-life application!

Weight gain with no changes. Exhaustion that doesn’t improve with sleep. Constant bloating, cravings, or mood swings. You’ve been told it’s your hormones. But is that the full story?

In this episode, we’re breaking down:

• How to know when hormones are truly the problem and when they’re just the symptom
• The most common reasons women feel “off” despite clean labs or endless supplements
• Why behavior, nutrition, and lifestyle must come first before testing or protocols
• The exact foundations that need to be in place before labs will even matter
• What testing is actually useful and how to apply it with intention
• The difference between treating numbers on a lab vs supporting the person in front of you

Most hormone imbalances aren’t random. They’re a result of chronic stress, gut dysfunction, under-eating, and poor recovery. When those inputs shift, hormones shift too.

This episode is a call to stop outsourcing your results to tests, and start taking control of what you can change right now.
