101: Q&A: Fitness Mistakes + If I Were Starting My Fitness Journey Today, I’d Do This Instead

If I could go back and start my fitness journey all over again? I’d do a lot less spinning my wheels, and a lot more of what actually works. In this Q&A episode, I’m breaking down exactly what I’d do differently if I were starting from scratch today. No fake motivation. No shiny routines. Just the five shifts that would’ve saved me years of burnout, frustration, and wasted energy. We’re talking about why lifting weights (intentionally, not endlessly) would be my day one move, why soreness and sweat mean less than you think, and how protein and walking changed everything for me, but not in the way Instagram makes it seem. I’m also getting into the habits I used to skip that now feel non-negotiable and why I wish I’d stopped treating under-eating like a flex. If you’re in your start-over era, or just tired of doing the most and feeling the least, this one’s for you.
