The Body Lab is a weekly podcast by Ashley Pardo, MLA, FNTP, and CPT. Ashley discusses approachable and evidence-based strategies for fat loss, strength training, metabolism, and muscle building - not just for your body, but for your brain. The Body Lab is different because Ashley talks about what actually helps us keep the weight off for life: behavior change, habits, eating psychology, nervous system regulation, relationships, and mental health, all through the lens of the neurodivergent and highly sensitive woman.

    267 | From Grit to Commit: The Year I Stopped Half-Trying

    2025 was an extremely clarifying year for me - my initial word of the year, Grit, no longer resonated, and I found myself at a crossroads. By adopting flow, and less intensity, I got much better results. I left behind any dabbling and fully committed to my goals... and reached them. I also talk through my lessons of 2025, goals/word for 2026, and the yearly list I do to help me create clear action steps.
