Let’s bring this one back… because the message still holds true today.

If you're still chasing the latest diet trend but not seeing lasting results—this episode is a must.

Tag an awesome coach!

Your coach won’t let you quit.
And you’ll thank them.
Eventually… 😅

That pretty much sums up today.

This workout was… a lot.
✔️ Burpees to target
✔️ Rowing
✔️ Lunges with a dumbbell suitcase I didn’t even pack for this kind of trip
✔️ And running…
(I was not in the mood for running!) 😂

Somewhere around round 2, I started giving my coaches the side-eye like:
“Who came up with this 💩?”
And they just smiled and said,
“Keep going.”

That’s the thing about great coaching—
They don’t just give you reps.
They give you belief.

They push you,
but they also meet you where you are.
They adapt. They encourage.
And somehow, they make you feel capable—even when you’re questioning everything.

I didn’t finish first.
But I finished stronger—because they wouldn’t let me settle for less.

To my ladies over 50:
This is what health looks like.
Not perfection. Not performance.
Consistency. Courage. And a coach who won’t let you quit.

Don't forget to tag your favorite coach!
