    Peptides, GLP-1s, and the Truth No One Is Saying

    In this episode, we cut through the noise around peptides, supplements, and GLP-1s to talk about what actually matters, what might help, and what could be a waste of money or even risky. With so much marketing promising fast results, it’s easy to get pulled into solutions that don’t address the root problem. We break down the difference between real outcomes and perceived ones, what happens when you stop using these interventions, and why shortcuts often create longer delays. This conversation is about thinking critically, considering long-term impact, and taking ownership of your health instead of outsourcing it. We talk about: -looking past the marketing -starting with the end in mind -considering the long term impact -online anti-aging clinics -peptides and the misinformation -short cuts make long delays -it’s not “this or that” Time Stamps:  1:00 Introduction 2:35 “growth hormone” peptides versus growth hormone 7:22 predatory marketing 14:10 Are the results actually from peptides? 18:14 what happens when you stop? 24:43 do healing peptides work? 29:50 are GLP-1s for life? 38:33 optimizing your health is your job 41:58 GLP-1s in menopause 45:29 choosing yourself in the hard times CONNECT WITH KAIT & MAV: Get 1:1 coaching here: https://app.iclosed.io/e/elev8/1-1-strategy-call-podcast Get our weekly emails: https://go.maverickonlinecoaching.net/mailing-list Ebook: https://go.elev8coaching.net/consistency-book Hosted on Acast.

    Why Building Muscle Changes Everything

    In this episode, we talk about what it really means to have flexibility with your food while letting go of guilt and still making progress. So many people chase weight loss but miss the bigger picture—building a body that is strong, resilient, and sustainable for the long term. We break down why muscle is the foundation of both fat loss and longevity, what to expect during a build phase (including the scale going up), and how to shift your focus toward what actually moves the needle. This conversation is about food freedom, strength, and creating a body that supports your life, not controls it. We talk about: -What a lean build actually means -Why the scale may go up during a build phase -The importance of maintaining bone density -Why muscle is the foundation of health and longevity -Letting go of food guilt and working toward food freedom -Focusing on what actually makes a difference -How to start strength training Time Stamps:  0:00 Introduction 4:19 the secret to maintaining your weight loss 9:49 increasing you BMR 13:52 do hormones really matter? 16:33 the emotional side of body recomposition 23:00 working towards food freedom 31:05 how to start strength training CONNECT WITH KAIT & MAV: Get 1:1 coaching here: https://app.iclosed.io/e/elev8/1-1-strategy-call-podcast Get our weekly emails: https://go.maverickonlinecoaching.net/mailing-list Ebook: https://go.elev8coaching.net/consistency-book Hosted on Acast.

    The Dark Side of Chasing the Perfect Body

    In this episode, we have an honest conversation about body dysmorphia and how it impacts both men and women. We share our personal experiences, including the influence of bodybuilding, performance goals, and constantly chasing a standard that never feels like enough. This episode explores how tying your worth to the scale or your appearance can distort your identity, and why building self-esteem outside of your body is essential for long-term health and fulfillment. If you’ve ever struggled with feeling like you’re never “there,” this conversation will help you see where that comes from and how to start shifting it. We talk about: -Our lived experiences with body dysmorphia The impact of bodybuilding and physique-focused goals The feeling of never being “enough” Living and dying by the number on the scale Where self-esteem actually comes from Finding identity and meaning beyond your body Health implications of extreme mindsets Why shame doesn’t create lasting change Time Stamps:  0:00 Introduction 1:28 Maverick’s experience with body dysmorphia 14:09 men and self-esteem issues 18:22 coming off HRT 24:08 breaking an old mindset 28:00 identity outside of your body 35:35 dealing with health implications 41:38 current struggles & inadequacies 49:50 you can’t shame people into change 53:37 diversify your self esteem  CONNECT WITH KAIT & MAV: Get 1:1 coaching here: https://app.iclosed.io/e/elev8/1-1-strategy-call-podcast Get our weekly emails: https://go.maverickonlinecoaching.net/mailing-list Ebook: https://go.elev8coaching.net/consistency-book Hosted on Acast.

    Accountability Won’t Save You

    In this episode, we break down the behaviors and beliefs that quietly keep you stuck exactly where you are. After working with so many people over the years, the patterns become obvious. Some choices move you forward, and others keep you repeating the same cycle. We talk about the difference between knowing what to do and actually deciding to do it, why waiting for more information can hold you back, and how the expectations you set for yourself shape your outcomes. This conversation challenges you to take ownership, make clear decisions, and recognize that tomorrow is built by what you choose today. We talk about: -The behaviors that sabotage progress -Why tomorrow is decided by today’s choices -Decision-making within a marriage -The expectations you set for yourself -The myth of accountability -Why making a decision matters more than waiting Time Stamps:  0:00 Introduction 3:30 a decision is a commitment 6:45 behaviors that keep you stuck 10:38 money versus quality of life 16:40 outsourcing uncomfortable decisions 24:00 missing on time 29:15 do you need more information? 34:48 advice women need to hear 41:05 being the best for yourself 48:17 an “informed” decision CONNECT WITH KAIT & MAV: Get 1:1 coaching here: https://app.iclosed.io/e/elev8/1-1-strategy-call-podcast Get our weekly emails: https://go.maverickonlinecoaching.net/mailing-list Ebook: https://go.elev8coaching.net/consistency-book Hosted on Acast.

    How to Stay Grounded When Everything Feels Out of Control

    In this episode, we talk about what it actually looks like to navigate chronic anxiety and overwhelm, especially when so much of life feels out of your control.
