Nobody actually wants a smaller number on the scale. What you want is more. More energy at the end of the day. More presence with your kids. More capacity to say yes to the thing that scares you a little. That's what health is really for. And it starts in your mind before it ever shows up in your body. Because the story you tell yourself about what you're capable of is the ceiling on everything else. I'm Meg. Mom and endurance athlete. Losing 100 pounds was never the finish line. It was the door. On the other side of it I found out what my body and my belief could really do. Eleven half and

    33. It Feels Good To Feel Good, And You Deserve More Of That

    What if feeling good wasn't something you had to wait around for? What if you could actually create a habit of generating it, on purpose, with your own thoughts and actions? That's what this episode is about. I'm walking you through how the way you think and the way you move can create the feeling of feeling good, and here's the best part: it's contagious. When you feel good, you want more of it, so you naturally do the next healthy thing. And the next one. And that's how following through stops being a battle and starts being something you actually crave until it becomes your default mode. We get into how your body is listening to everything you tell it, the mindset study that still blows my mind, and the one tool I come back to again and again: the model. Circumstance, thought, feeling, action, result. It's the thing that showed me we have so much more say in how we feel than we ever give ourselves credit for. Once you see it, you can't unsee it. So if you've been waiting to feel ready, or waiting for next Monday, this is your reminder that you get to create the feeling of being ready NOW so you can live more life NOW. We get one shot, no dress rehearsal; let's f*cking go.

    32. What Are You Borrowing From the Woman You Want to Become?

    Every time you say “I’ll start Monday,” you’re taking something away from a future version of you. Her energy, her confidence, her peace; she’s the one who pays for it. This episode is about the moment I realized that, and what it cost me to learn it. I talk about how every hard thing I went through — being obese, the bullying, the diagnosis, losing my dad two months before I became a mom — turned out to be the training ground for the work I do now. I share the three small moments that changed my entire business, including one sentence a stranger said in the Grand Canyon that I haven’t been able to shake. Then I get honest about why I stopped building the virtual version of accountability and started showing up at 6 a.m. in real life instead. It’s a whole lot harder to cancel on someone who’s already standing at our meeting spot. If you keep starting over, this one’s for you. Ready to stop borrowing from future you? DM me LFG on Instagram and I’ll send you the link to book a free Clarity Call and see if we’re a good fit to work on taking you from where you are now to where you want to be.

    31. When It Doesn't Go the Way You Planned (Do This Instead of Quitting)

    You signed up or said yes. You were excited. Then something changed and now you're questioning everything. That's exactly where I found myself last week. I signed up for a duathlon on a whim (I don't even own a bike, more on that later) and then found out the one thing I was counting on to carry me through 40 kilometers is banned: No headsets, no music, and you're disqualified if you try. In this quick episode I'm sharing the two tools that took me from, "Holy sh*t, how am I going to do this?" to being genuinely excited in a matter of minutes: The two ways to spell FEAR, and why one of them changes everything.The "life is 50-50" tool that works on everything from a surprise dental bill to the hardest loss of my life.If you're the mom who bails the second the plan stops looking like the plan, this one's for you.

    30. You Keep Waiting Until You Feel Ready. What If You Didn't Have To?

    On Tuesday, July 14th, at 11:20am, I signed up for a duathlon happening in four days. Run, bike, run. A small leap of faith in tow: I don't own a bike that works. By 4:20 that afternoon, five bikes had been offered up to me and I was so lit up I recorded this episode before daycare pickup. This one's about what I'm calling More Life. It's the phrase that's been rewiring how I think about my body, my business, and why I train at all. Because the goal was never the race. The goal is being so mentally and physically ready that when life hands you something (an adventure, a curveball, a shit storm you never saw coming) you can say yes. Or you can hold it. Either way, you're equipped. You'll hear: How I went from needing months to prep for a half marathon to saying yes on six days noticeThe question a coach asked me that unlocked the space I want to operate my whole business fromWhy I'm done trying to fit myself into a social media boxThe offer that's been flickering in my mind for years and is finally coming to lifeAnd the real reason behind all of it. My dad, his unlived potential, and the promise I've made to myselfIf this episode lights something up in you, tell me. Reply, DM me, whatever feels right. I want to hear how YOU are going to live more life.

    29. Proof That You're Capable of More Than You've Given Yourself Credit For

    Whether you think you can or you can't — you're right. This episode is about why your mind might be the only thing standing between you and the goal you've been circling for years. I'll walk you through a true story of a kid who bombed high school, then shocked everyone with his SAT score — and how that one result rewired his entire life (there's a twist you won't see coming). Then a Stanford study showing people's bodies physically perform differently based on false information about their own genetics. Then my own story: going from emergency surgery to a marathon PR two months later, against my doctor's initial advice. If you've been living off old data about what you're capable of, it's time to go collect new proof.

    28. Proximity Is Power: Who You're Around Is Either Fueling Your Goals or Feeding Your Excuses

    Have you ever pulled an orange out of the fruit bowl and realized the one underneath went moldy... and took the others with it? The people around you work the same way. Their energy, their habits, their beliefs about what’s possible. It’s all rubbing off on you, whether you notice it or not. So which is your circle doing: fueling your goals, or feeding your excuses? In this episode, I’m taking you inside my Rim to Rim to Rim experience through the Grand Canyon and showing you how one weekend with the right people completely changed what I believe I’m capable of. If you’re a mom who keeps setting health and fitness goals, getting excited, and then watching it all fizzle out, this episode will show you the missing piece. It’s not more discipline. It’s proximity. You’ll hear: Why the “sum of 5 people” rule matters more than ever (and how it works online, not just in person) The one line a stranger said at 2 AM that changed the direction of my entire business How the right leadership can be the difference between thriving and barely surviving (literally, in the Canyon) The shift from pushing from force to pulling from power Why the fastest way to finally follow through is changing who’s around you And if you’re ready for a circle that fuels your goals, come join us inside The Follow Through Collective. It’s a completely free group for moms working on their health, fitness, and mindset, and you can jump in at any time. Click HERE to fill out the sign-up form!

    27. What a 60-Year-Old on a Spin Bike Taught Me About Follow Through

    I almost didn’t make it to spin class this morning. Then a 60-year-old woman on the bike beside me reminded me why follow through matters more than motivation ever will. In this episode: the energy myth nobody tells moms the truth about, the Stanford study that proves your mindset can override your biology, and why I refuse to let my daughter grow up thinking adulthood is just “surviving until the weekend.” If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to finally follow through on your health, this is your sign.

    26. How Is This Happening For Me? (A Game-Changing Mindset Tool)

    In this episode, I share one simple question that completely changed how I process hard seasons in my life:“How is this happening for me?” What started as no sleep, my dog getting kennel cough, + cleaning up way too much mucus turned into a powerful realization about mindset, meaning, + how we relate to challenges. I also share how this same question supported me through my second pregnancy loss, led to major clarity in my business, + helped me make decisions from a place of empowerment instead of a victim mentality. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why the questions you ask shape your entire experience of life How to use this re-frame without bypassing emotions or forcing positivity How this one question can shift your nervous system, mindset, + direction Plus, a few practical tools (found in this Diary of a CEO Podcast episode) at the end to help you start applying this in your own life right away If you’ve been stuck in “Why is this happening to me?” mode, this episode offers a simple, powerful alternative.
