Not all lateral hip pain is bursitis, clamshells aren’t a forever fix, and MRI findings don’t always explain where the pain’s coming from. No wonder this stuff throws people for a LOOOOP.

Finding the real root cause and following a progressive plan with your rehab or provider team is always the best way forward. But if you’re looking for some extra hip tips, comment “EASE” and I’ll send you one of my favorite resources!

To my friends, family, and anyone following me who’s dealing with hip pain… here’s what I REALLY think:

Just because I care about you doesn’t mean there’s a quick fix.

If you’re having pain with running, it means load exceeded capacity — your body is waving a flag that something isn’t adding up.

We still need to figure out why:

1️⃣ Did your running volume jump too quickly?
2️⃣ Is your foundation off — coordination, mechanics, endurance, or strength?
3️⃣ Or is everything “fine,” but life stress has been sky-high and running was simply the straw that broke the camel’s back?

Often it’s a combo.

‼️Curious—what’s been the MOST frustrating part of your hip pain?

👇 Comment one letter:
A = Can’t build mileage

C = Don’t know what’s “okay” vs too much
D = Tried everything… still stuck

My husband is in the top 1% of physical therapists—and even HE couldn’t help me.

That was a hard pill to swallow.

Not because he wasn’t capable…
But because it wasn’t his job to fix me. And deep down, I knew it.

Once I stopped pouring my emotional, physical, and mental energy into waiting for someone else to “figure it out” for me—and took aligned action instead—everything shifted.

✨ My body started to heal.
✨ My mind finally had space to breathe.
✨ And I could finally run without overthinking every. single. step.

This is exactly what I help women do inside the EmpowHER Hip Program.

➡️ We blend strength + run coaching
➡️ We reduce pain and rebuild confidence
➡️ And most importantly: we free up your mental space to live your life without being consumed by hip pain.

Doors are OPEN and this cohort filled 50% in the first WEEK.

💅 Advice I’d Give My Labral Torn Bestie

Im all about answering the random texts about my friends/families aches and pains but if they want to get back to running/working out without pain there are NO shortcuts.

I still reccomend a full plan to discover their weaknesses, develop them into their strengths, and deploy back to what they love with their strongest hip yet.

My client thought her running days were over—even after bouts of PT.

10 weeks later, she’s running comfortably and planning 2026 races.

This is what rebuilding trust in your body looks like.

The reason I’m so passionate about hip pain in women runners is because I’ve been there too!

Stuck in the…
😟 ‘I’m literally afraid of what this doctor is going to tell me’
🤷‍♀️ ‘I don’t think this PT session is actually doing anything’
🌀 Fearing if I’ll ever run for fun again (hello mental spirals)
💔 Missing the mental decompression that running gave me

And I'm SOOOOO excited to share that the Jan EmpowHER Hip Coaching Cohort Opens TODAY!!!!

Breaking women of the cycle + frustration above since 2023.

🤔 Do any of these secretly aggravate your hip pain too?

In Weeks 1–3 inside EmpowHER Hip Coaching, we don’t just guess what’s flaring your hip — we identify your true aggravators.�
And honestly? Most of my gals are shocked by what’s
actually driving their pain.

Once we know what we’re up against, we:�• Build a plan to reduce pain from those triggers�• Increase overall hip strength + capacity�• Gradually re-introduce the things that used to set them off — without flare-ups

That’s the formula that gets women back to running confidently and consistently again. 🏃‍♀️

Comment “HIP” & I’ll send you the link to apply. BONUS 1:1 spots are filling FAST 😱

The EmpowHER Hip Program is for women who are DONE doing the same basic hip exercises and still feeling stuck.

You want to do less, see more results, and finally feel confident in your running again — without second-guessing every mile.

It’s not just about pain relief...

It’s about getting your ME time back:
→ Running with the girls or at run club.
→ Clearing your head after a long day.
→ Ditching the mental spirals and running strong for LIFE.

✨ That’s the real win.

They told me to stop distance running because of my hip. I didn’t listen.
Instead, I built a support system, followed a clear (doable) strength plan, and designed a run progression that met me exactly where I was — not where I used to be.

Was it smooth sailing? Heck no. (Flare-ups tested me more than once.)

But I stuck with it... and crossed finish lines I once thought were out of reach:
🏁 Suncadia Trail Half
🏁 50k
🏁 Deception Pass 50k

And I want the same for YOU.

✨ If you’re ready to feel strong, confident, and finally get back to racing without the fear of hip pain...

Comment “HIP” below — I’ll send you the exact checklist I used to rebuild and race again.

Top 7 Things That Took Me From Labral Tear to Half Marathon — Pain-Free

I went from feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, and alone... to feeling like a runner again. Here’s what changed:

1. Clarity — A simple, step-by-step plan I could follow every week
2. Support — A small group of women who believed in me and showed me what was possible
3. Confidence — I knew exactly what to do if my pain flared — and had proof it was working for others like me

Sound too good to be true? It’s not.
I’m dropping something this month that checks all of these boxes — and I can’t wait to share it.

Like Travis ❤️’s Taylor, I LOVE helping women runners crush hip pain.

There’s nothing better than watching a woman go from “I’ll never run again” to confident, consistent, and pain-free.

🚨 Something new is coming this SEPT to help you do exactly that—and I can’t wait to share it!
